Crazy Priced Vinyl On EBAY

Why would anyone go through the process of printing a boot cover, pay the extra expense to emboss the cover, only to put legit records inside — doesn’t make sense.

lol this guy cannot be serious

The records themselves are fairly marginal. Of course that really doesn’t matter, since you can easily replace them.

the records are marked VG-. $10 says this is a beat up copy of the White Album spray painted orange

Just going on all information from anywhere on the internet that I can see, plus the information from my Beatles experts, it seems pretty likely that this will be your only chance to own this, as it’s the only copy anyone has ever heard of.

Only the front, of a sleeve that is made from one piece of card?

Its not coloured by marker pens, or someone's paint brush.

Its a spray paint job, then.

look at the clues guys. orange is a pun on apple; orinj is also an anagram of ringo. it's likely that this unique copy was pressed especially for him and if you can buy it for less than $3m, it's a steal

if that sells I can guarantee I'll be painting all my copies of the white album and selling them for a mere $10k a piece

longboxes have really kicked up in value

I mean, a guy from Manowar was in this band (not among the signers, btw), but cmon

It's been in my "Want" page for aeons, it just never comes up for sale.

I did get the "Fuzzy Warbles" box back whenever, for a daft price (literally had to re-contact the seller to ask "This is all the CDs? Not an empty box or "contains 2" type thing?" but it was.)

But seeing as how I have all the music from the box (actually, both orig albums and the new CD sets), it dunt matter.

4k for a knackered Jethro Tull promo poster.

Very Rare Misprint LP Two Side 3's - Communicate * [LP] by Sasha + John Digweed
Pre-Owned

$20,000.00 or Best Offer+$44.19 shipping

WILL REFUND 125% if returned with proof that item is not authentic...(VERY RARE; POSSIBLY ONE OF A KIND) Great investment opportunity This is hands down, one of my most prized possessions and may very well be priceless. If you were in the House/Trance scene back in the day, then you'd remember how hot and heavy the dance floor would get whenever the DJ dropped Trisco. This LP has two side 3's instead of the side 3 and side 4 that should be there. I didn't list this as a new item only because I have removed the record from it's sleeve, but it has never been played. The sleeve has very little wear due to sitting on the shelf but is in extremely good condition. Because I have never played the album, I cannot say wether or not the label is a misprint or if it's the label and the actual record as well.

Cheers and happy bidding!

A must have for any record collection.

If you were in the House/Trance scene back in the day,

signs that i'm out of element, number 48634896.

Because I have never played the album, I cannot say wether or not the label is a misprint or if it's the label and the actual record as well.

this is insanely lazy and funny because you could easily check any notes in the middle actually pressed on the record, or eyeball the number of and length of tracks on both sides and see if they match

groan

it's a must have for any record collection

ian how many times has someone tried to pull off something like this to you at the record store

hmmmmmm.... not things exactly like this, but people very often have an overinflated of what their beat up beatles records are worth.

LOLs.

You do see people asking about stuff like this on the webs; it's got the wrong label stuck on one side is it worth loads? Unless it's a fucking Quarrymen acetate, probably not mate.

I once had in my possession a copy of The Fountainhead (yeah, I decided to hate read it) and there was a 50 page segment in the middle that was just the previous 50 pages repeated.

I guess I should have held on to it as a highly sought-after collectible but I was mostly pissed that if I wanted to continue punishing my brain by reading Ayn Rand I’d need to find another copy so I threw it in the recycling bin

haha, this was an observation from a friend who worked in a record store. people incredulous that a beatles record in good condition isn't that rare a thing, feeling like they're being bullshitted

I've got a CD by Mary Margaret O'Hara entitled 'Miss Amercia' [sic]. Makeuthink.

this is a weird ass phenomenon. if i ran a record store i'd be tempted to have a conversation like this:

me: would you say the beatles were popular, sir?

guy trying to pawn off beatles records: yeah, definitely.

me: would you say that they sold millions of records?

GTTPOBR: of course! they're the beatles.

me: so why would you think that one of those many millions of records is a rarity?

GTTPOBR: (sobs)

ah because 800k of them were treated in a haphazard manner, discarded or abused!

so there are still a couple hundred thousand copies in decent condition?

Serious question — how could you tell?

me: so why would you think that one of those many millions of records is a rarity?

GTTPOBR: (sobs) BECAUSE THERE'S AN ABNORMAL INSCRIPTION IN THE MATRICES, AND DO YOU SEE THE SHRINK AND HYPE STICKER? GIVE ME MONEY

Proceeds to storm home and plop it on ebay as Buy It Now with the word "WOW" in the listing title; it sits there for 5 years

Would you like to capitalize your auction title for an addition $1.75?

GTTPOBR: oh goody goody

xxp very good question

I think people get the idea that misprinted records, books, etc are valuable comes from stamp collecting, where I think that’s a “thing.”

Stamps and coins, because those are government productions that need strict quality control.

Serious question — how could you tell?

people also like, like, weirdly shaped rocks and stuff.

I’d pay good money for a copy of Rubber Soul where a pressing error made it shaped like a cock and balls

pretty sure I remember seeing a rubber c&b for sale in a shop somewhere, will let you know if I recall where

Does it play "Baby you can drive my car"?

I once encountered a CDr in a sealed pack that contained some kind of compilation of Police & Sting songs, which literally made it worth less than the 60p or whatever that it cost.

Mint or NM condition original pressings of Beatles records are certainly worth money, because so manh of them have been overplayed and wound up just trashed. But they have also remained in print since they were released in various masterings so it's not like it's difficult to find excellent condition versions of those albums from some era. The more scarce ones are strange pressings from South America etc, particularly if they were variants with different covers or even album names.

Seller information

deepdiscount (366697)

Weirdly specific price + generic info leads me to believe an automatic listing/adjustment program went haywire? IDK

yeah deepdiscount are a big retailer, that seems like a mistake.

.. unless someone buys one...

No doubt an algorithm error. Weird one though.

What was it priced at? it's at $28.76 now

it was over $800 lol

wowza

not vinyl but
