Crazy Priced Vinyl On EBAY

^Wanna go in on a business partnership? Sounds like a plan to me.

ULTRA RARE PRIVATE PRESS 1978 SAN JUAN ISLANDS FREAK FOLK LP!

(freak folk is easier to fake than prog -- with prog you have to be able to at least pretend to play. mg + ee or whatever they're called seem to be able to get by fine with no discernible musical ability whatsoever.)

Well, I'm the mg, you can be the ee...

bidder 1 is a mongo

my husband just

Disappeared with out a trace we are still

trying to find him but it is not looking good and

I have to think of my children and christmas for

them so that is why these are for sale.

I am hoping for the return of my husband.

He's going to be angry when he finds his records are gone.

"Your records missed you! They went out looking for you! We haven't seen them since!"

What was she doing with that dipshit anyhow? A real man doesn't walk out and leave his Rebel MC records behind.

seller never send bank details; after 6 weeks: "article is no longer available"

96.9% feedback? No wonder her husband walked out eh

shugarecords is a srs goldmine of ebay price insanity

first swans ep, a bargain at $184

I have this, and the production is MUCH, MUCH better than the CD reissue.

The CD reissue sounds like it's being played down a well.

how do you find out how much an LP is worth?

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51GGWXP58ML._SL500_AA240_.jpg ?

head on over to waxidermy for more shugarecords related bemusement

nickb, is there an online version/equivalent?

I don't know I'm afraid. That book always seems to be the one lurking on the shelf of used record stores though.

yes there is:

This site shows what vinyl (not CDs) went for on ebay, historically.

http://www.popsike.com/index.html

Popsike's the best one out there, I think, but this one also comes in handy sometimes:

a very nice original copy of the New Creation lp went for over $1200 the other day

Pavement, Terror Twilight, 12 inch vinyl TEST PRESS Domino - 4999

that guy is a douche

if i could get 20K for my signed elliott smith setlist i'd be on easy street

dude, list it

tht terror twilight listing is crazy

holy shit. 25 grand?

I'm going to list all my recs as £25,000 or best offer

Oh shit, I had this and sold it with a bunch of other crap (i.e. Blood Circus, Swallow, Coffin Break etc 7"s) for not much at all. Go me.

that's a $15 record if it's lucky

Oh good, I won't beat myself up about that one then. Helluva crappy record too iirc.

Hmm, Popside has it £26 at it's lowest, £100 at it's highest. Most around the £40-£50 mark.

If you see it for $15, get it!

Popsike, not popside, oops.

poops

The CD reissue sounds like it's being played down a well.

Funny, I thought all Swans sounded like this...

WRONG

but I really came here to post this sublimely ridiculous $30,000 Michael Hurley LP...

LOL probably a decimal point issue -- it went for $261 the other day, and theres a $425 buy-it-now now
