You find some Neat stuff, robivy. I went to an estate sale when i first moved to this area but they didnt have much besides furniture.

do you ever find any consoles?

I havent found anything good In a long time besides the JVC X EYE i bought in the early 2000s for $30.

I still have it.

None of these albums have any completed sold listings on ebay and I'm unable to locate any listings on amazon. All the albums are available for sale on discogs and yet there are people who want them so no demand at the current prices I reckon. Uncommon as hell to be sure but worth a lot? If someone buys them, sure.

There's a reason we have the "ridiculous ebay listings thread."

They are very rare so you will hardly ever see them on ebay.

You're right - if they went up on ebay nobody would even notice. It seems discogs is the way to go for some things like these. I certainly would never think to look these up beyond ebay and amazon so kudos to you on that end.

You do realize that a lot of the items for sale on Discogs are individuals or small stores selling things, right? By your reasoning, if I were to go on there and list a record for sale for $200, it's now worth $200, whether it's ever sold for that amount or not.

The fact that something is listed at $50 and still available at that price is a good indicator that it is not worth $50.

Had some massive yard sale and flea market finds this week, mostly records and vintage toys.
I will start by posting pics of the records.
Most are from garage sales and flea markets.
Most I paid under $2 per, except Bubble Puppy, and Drama Loneliness (sealed)
The Punk, and Alternative records are mostly French, England and German pressings

All are dead mint !

Met up one of the members of Bentwind, Marty Roth (lead singer) who lives near me
and picked up a re-issue of Sussex for $5. He gave me the 45 reissue for free.
Only 300 copies of the original were pressed and valued at over $6,000 in near mint shape.
