The Beatles Butcher Block album sold for more than $6,000 on eBay last year. Somebody’s paying something. Sealed Beck Sea Change on Mo Fi, pink vinyl, currently listed for $500. Mo Fi Woodstock, $810.
What is the most $ you have spent on vinyl?
Just curious how much some members might have spent on an album?
So to qualify I mean a regular single/double album not a box set.
I am wondering as I have just one album to buy to complete a collection but I am baulking at the high price tag.
Maybe if I get some perspective it might not seem so bad!

Hope I am not going to set a record here? I paid $650 for sealed copies of MFSL ultra disc one-step (UD1S) recording of Santana Abraxas and Donald Fagen Nightfly, purchased as a package on eBay. If fact I have all 4 MFSL UD1S disc (above plus Bill Evan Sunday at the Village Vanguard Live and Simon & Garfunkel Bridge Over Troubled Water). As far as vinyl pressings go they all sound about as good as it is going to get IMHO. For example; listening to the Bill Evans recording I honestly thought I was listening to live music. I could not believe this recording is 56 years old. Background noise was non existent. Dynamic range, frequency response etc. was as good as anything I have ever heard. I got back into vinyl (after a 34 year absence) at the beginning of last year, see my previous post on the subject: https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/second-system-that-sounds-and-looks-spectacular-i-am-there Having fun with HiFi all over again! |
For every buyer there is a seller -- I sold a HiFi Today "Sgt Pepper" to a buyer in Japan for $1200 a few years back https://www.discogs.com/The-Beatles-Sgt-Peppers-Lonely-Hearts-Club-Band/release/7154298 I owned this from new (along with a bunch of other of the Nimbus SuperCuts I still have) but could not turn down that price Personally most I've paid is $300-400 for original 1st pressing Heron discs, but someone bought me an Island "Pink Moon" for $750 as a work leaving gift! |
