-- So, guys, what's the most expensive record you've purchased?
Pages (2): « 1 [2]

The most I've spent on a vinyl is �25, and that was for John Rees vs Helios - Beta Blocker (JR Trance Mix), and then I bought another copy of it from a different seller, also for �25. Then I sold one of these copies for �50 a week later.

Sign me up for the mother fucking Apprentice please.


Ps. Does anyone want to buy a copy of John Rees vs Helios - Beta Blocker (JR Trance Mix) for �50?

For instance I bought this one back in 1998: http://www.discogs.com/Dreamweaver-...s/release/70379 I saw it in the record store and was like "nice a new swedish goa trance producer, let's try it". Now i discovered that it goes for around �100. It's freaking insane.

IKEA in sk�rholmen has that dreamweaver cd on display in one of their lockable cd-shelves :E


most i've paid is ~80 euros for Drexciya - The Quest.

$30 for mint copy of Leama - Requiem For A Dream
$30 for mint copy of Young American Primitive
$30 for mint copy of Terra Ferma - The Adventures Of...
$30 for mint copy of L.S.G. - The Black Album
$40 for Blue Amazon - Javelin 2 Disc Australian Edition
� 38.95 for mint Forbidden Paradise 6
� 35.95 for mint Forbidden Paradise 3
$60 for Sasha & Digweed - Northern Exposure

It takes a lot for me to pay more than $20 for a single record or album.

Nothing, never bought one

Damn. I picked up the 2X12" picture discs of that album for around $30 here, although it's not signed. One of my lost treasures.

I paid close to $100 for TIP Yellow or TIP Orange on vinyl back in the day... dunno what made me that crazy for it; the same records cost next to nothing nowadays.

They only released 'em on [the other] TA. They go for 500-1000 on ebay, when they happen to pop up. Not sure if/when I'll get rid of it.

Back in my vinyl-buying days I once shelled out $200 for this: http://www.discogs.com/Tekknova-Las.../release/205513

I suppose prices/money spent is a relative thing, but $200 sure was a lot of money to shell out for two tracks.

Originally posted by Mr.Mystery I've never paid over �30 for a record, and even then I'd think twice before buying anything. I generally never even buy any "regular" record for a normal price, almost everything I do buy is from the bargain bin. It's ridiculous how much people are willing to pay for some records - I've recently discovered I seem to own a fair few records that people are willing to pay a lot of - and I've bought them all from bargain bins, sometimes just mere months ago. For example, someone bought this record for �72 when I paid about �5 for it less than a year ago.

A lot of people just don't search and dig enough for any other sources from where they can buy certain records. I also found myself in similar situations when I buy something very cheap and then when I look at discogs it sells for double and more its price. It is ridiculous.

On topic, my most expensive record was probably some of the goa records I bought - like Chi A.D. - Anno Domini, for around 30 dollars.

arbitrage opportunities are a many...

A non-dodgy version of Kate Bush Vs Infusion - Running Up That Hill (12", S/Sided, Unofficial). Paid 15� + shipping (ordered a bunch of other stuff then too, so I can't remember exactly how much I paid for the shipping). I think it's a lot for one single tune, but it was well worth it as it's one of the best tracks I know.

I think I've got loads of CDs I could get a lot of money from selling and most of them I've paid very little for. Some are even stuff I wouldn't have much trouble parting with. Sold some terrible Svenson CDS and the CDS of Holden & Thompson - Nothing (which doesn't even have the full length versions) to some chap for �50. I think I paid like 5� for them combined, if not less.

$30 + shipping for a hard copy of Solar Fields - Earthshine

I remember paying quite a bit of money on records and then i sold them all......

I remember buying the following:

http://www.discogs.com/Carl-Craig-N...rds/master/5857 (75GBP)
http://www.discogs.com/Rabbit-In-Th...k/release/60151 (50GBP)
http://www.discogs.com/Paperclip-Pe...ce/release/2395
(50GBP)

this was about 6 years ago - I wonder how much they would be if I would have kept onto them.

Discogs, duh.

Originally posted by Sand Leaper Christ on a bike. What on earth possessed you into thinking that any 12" is worth that much money, let alone a single-sided '99 trance 12"? I shelled out about $80 for this: http://www.discogs.com/Various-Untitled/release/208672, which was far too much, despite all the great music on it.

I think I'd actually pay $80 for that. That's only $27 per CD, which is what I'd expect to pay for a brand new disc, and that stuff is much rarer and cooler.
