Pricing Vinyl

Howdy all...I don't post in this subforum that often but I just had a question on pricing vinyl for (re)sale.

Just went to the record store and I managed to grab a couple pieces that apparently are very sought after.

http://www.discogs.com/Unknown-Arti.../release/153960

and

http://www.discogs.com/Flying-Lotus...release/1055913

The first one is pretty straightforward (Even though I have no idea who/what makes it kinda valuable), but the FlyLo EP is actually a whitelabel so I have no idea how this affects its value (It came with a generic sleeve)...Which is the question, basically. I'm not too sure I'll probably not sell it just yet, it's kinda cool to have an Adult Swim bump soundtrack on vinyl

You haven't actually asked a question.

If you're asking how to price the records for resale, just grade them using the Goldmine standard, look at the pricing of copies for sale on Discogs, then decide your asking price. Keep in mind that while there might be 4 copies of an item selling from $50 to $200, that the chances of actually selling your item in that range are pretty slim, unless you're prepared to sit on it until a monied (or foolish, or some combination of the two) buyer comes along. Reference the sales history and you'll see that the rare records that move the fastest are the ones that don't have delusionally astronomical price tags attached to them.

Now, since you haven't actually asked a question, it might also be fair to assume that you just posted this to brag about your finds. If that's the case, with the exception of a few people such as yourself, no one actually cares. I have records that I nabbed on the cheap that sell for $50+ on discogs, and I scribble things like "FAT BASSLINE!!" in black marker on the labels, just to show how pointless it is to fetishise electronic music.

it's crazy out there in discogs land. i sold a copy of luminary - amsterdam for $50 and couldn't get rid of some other nice ones for $1.50. Discogs has a price helper, but to sell your records you will probably have to hit up a bunch of forums and also use their forums to spam.

L33t dude.. I thought you'd have written that to let yourself know the track had a fat bassline.

Well if you want me to formulate it explicitly as a question...

Does the fact that my particular copy is a whitelabel affect what I can sell it for?

Note that there is not an entry for whitelabel versions of the particular EP I was asking about.

(And no, I did not make this thread to brag )

Yeah but then sushipunk hipster is gonna use it as an excuse to ban you for making fun of his favorite music which totally isn't just a bunch of drum loops for people high on ketamine.

Well, that too, as it's often the only way my aged mind can recall the contents of a particular 12".

a) Not really.

b) Maybe.

c) I guess you'll find out when you try to sell it!
