Whats the most you paid?

$200 for Smashing Pumpkins Mellon Collie, low numbered original run. Absolutely great.

$325 for a pair (mono and stereo) of first state Beatles butcher albums in 1981.

i will just say considerably more then listed. but they are rare original/promo pressings that in good times i believe will apriciate. if not, could have lost the money in the stock market. rather have the vinyl. to each their own. oh, my wife always thinks i am nuts!

$35-40 for the DCC of The Doors (debut) New sealed etc it was a while ago...next would be $25 for Black Sabbath (debut) from the castle remasters also new sealed

Paid $80 for the water lily 'meeting by the river' 45.
Cued it up, dimmed the lights, 5 minutes later, I had to ask myself... ' what am I doing with my life?'
never did listen to record #2.
Now I only shell out big $ for 'must haves'
if the 'best recording in the world' comes around again, which, inevitably it does, I'll listen to a sample first to see if the music floats my boat.
For must have stuff, it's worth the big bucks, because you can't put a pricetag on joy, nostalgia, goosebumps and so on.
My wife doesn't need to understand it!!
