What's it worth to you?

Record collecting and being an Audiophile are two different hobbies. Yes, there is a common link but many are not both. I don’t consider myself a collector but an Audiophile. Would I pay $1k for an original VG + Blue Note? Absolutely not! A record collector might consider a $1k power cord "snake oil". There are plenty of great recordings in performance/SQ under $25. Put the money in your system, yes that includes room/power treatment ect.

A Miles Davis KOB with the signatures of all the original session musicians would be a highly desirable piece! It's all about the rarity ...

I for one buy vinyl to listen to and have zero interest in "collecting" it for any other reason.  Long ago stopped buying used LP's as the percentage that are pristine is so low.  Just one man's opinion.  But if it brings you pleasure to "own" some rare LP, fill your boots.  As the adage goes, you can't take it with you.  😁

IF I had a VERY wide wallet,

I WOULD be that guy buying some those albums. The difference would be, I’d actually play them on my uber setup.

I have a thing about playing the very best period press of whatever the "legacy" release -stereo/mono. No interest in "super reissues" of albums.

The BEST available period press played on the BEST assembled rig is what it’s about for me.
