| Just wanted to start a conversation. So, what would you guys consider a rare vinyl? I hear many people say that ayu - m is hard to find. Is it because there where few vinyls pressed? because it isn't easy to find anymore? Are certain records defined as rare from the time they are released or do they gain the title 'rare' along the way? |

Lost Tribe - gamemaster (original mix)
seemed pretty rare to me, i had a bitch of a time finding it.
finally got it on ebay for you don't want to know how much. let's
just say i ordered 8 records today, and it was cheaper than that one was by itself.
a record is rare, when it is not being pressed anymore, and all the copies are sold.
some records (fire999) only get like 999 pressings, making them rare as soon as they are pressed.
some are just white labels, pressed by someone who doesn't have the dough for a full release.
white labels can sometimes be the BEST records though.
also, there are special vinyls, colored ones, limited edition sets, etc, those are rare too. |

| white labels I would say are rare of the rare. And it could be anything, a crap tune or a killer |

Underworld - Born Slippy (Paul Van Dyk remix)
and the full version of System F - Solstice is what I would consider rare vinyls. |

to me gamemaster isn;t that hard to find over here in australia.
rare stuff to me is basically any song i am after! here in brisbane australia we get vinyl releases way late, and in brisbane we get barely anything. But we do get good stuff sometimes. |

| Pretty much any vinyl that's a few years old can be considered rare. I picked up Lost Tribe - Distant Voices EP (My Soul, Gamemaster, My Soul, Angel 4/4 Mix) from HMV for £3 when it first came out in 1997. They had plenty of copies and so did every other shop so it wasn't rare back then. Now try finding a copy! |

I dug out a couple of 5 year old records from a store downtown. These where Nightmare - Brainbug / Benedictus and also Da Hool - Meet Her At The Love Parade(Though I guess this isn't rare cause it was repressed in 2001 right?) |

Really? That's rare? I picked it up in the bargain section of one of my local record shops for £3.50 about 4 months ago. |
