So, guys, what's the most expensive record you've purchased?
Just grabbed myself the last copy of Krystal - Burning Flame for $220 
Christ! I don't think I've ever paid more than $30 for a record. I just can't justify it in my own mind.
Sometimes... money simply just pales in comparison to the value of a solid record.
Well if I were a wealthy person, maybe my opinion would differ. I certainly understand the sentimental value of some records and have many I wouldn't part with for anything, but I still can't bring myself to pay an astronomical figure for a record.

My most expensive is prolly around $40 or so. Can't remember which one, though.
Young American Primitive - Young American Primitive
And that was heavily discounted. Came to about �40 overall, as I recall.
Let's see.. I paid $53.33 (not incl. shipping) for the double CD compilation of "Northern Exposure" by Sasha & John Digweed and $40 for the "Nirwana" album by Ayla. Those are the highest prices I've paid for stuff this year.
I'm guessing the OP bought the CD Maxi version of the rls in question? Serious ouch, but as long as you absolutely love it!
I'd love to have the Andain - Beautiful Things CD Maxi, but it's way too expensive at �75 sadly. Don't love it that bad, but it's annoying though.
Just what i can remember of the top of my head.
Space Manoeuvres - Factoid $110
http://www.discogs.com/Space-Manoeu.../release/492580
Murphy Brown Und Nu NRG - Progressive Tanzproduktionen Teil 1 $75
http://www.discogs.com/Murphy-Brown.../release/106167
Amoebaassassin* - Piledriver $65
http://www.discogs.com/Amoebaassass...r/release/86977
Mobile Bitch - Sex For Pleasure $40

Little Big Bee - Scuba [Flower Records]

OUTRAGEOUS.

It's funny how you sometimes buy a record just randomly and then many years later find out that it have increased dramatically in price.
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.
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.
$40 -- Platipus - Orange (Lp)
I paid 50 dollars for a sealed copy of this
http://www.discogs.com/Various-Wipe...k/release/35408
this was a landmark compilation for me, so it has justifiable value.
Where the fuck are you people paying these sorts of prices for these records? I need to get in on this action - I have so much shit I want to shift.

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. |
