That Escalated Quickly (aka Common Records Turned Rare)

@Djxfactor511 did yours already sell?!

I saw the listing for a hot minute and now it's gone?
Insanity!

To a user with no feedback, but with Paypal intergrated payment with Discogs, as long as I get a receipt from USPS when I drop off the record, it's minimal risk, right? This is easily the most expensive thing I've sold.
 

Prices on this have escalated fast.

Side note, I bought an album off of Discogs (through the app, not through any side channels), but the sale never showed up on the releases sales history. Is this a common thing?

On Discogs sales show up in the history once the seller pays his or her fees to Discogs, so some appear within days, some take months, depending on how punctual the seller is in paying the piper. It's also a reason (among many) that Discogs pricing is a lagging indicator

I double checked the release after posting and the sale (from about 8 weeks ago) is finally there.

This changed recently with discogs being able to make everything instantaneous (fees are removed as soon as the sale occurs).
 
Mitski seem to have a Phoebe-effect atm. Wasn't this lurking for quite some time in the store before it finally sold out? Even the standard pressing seem to go for a premium now...

And I picked this up at a sale in the VMP store for about $16.

I just sold my copy of Be the Cowboy for $75. It's a nice album and all but I like $75 more.

I should sell mine. I got it as a freebie when I started a gift subscription and I’ve listened to it once.

Oh wow that's insane. I might have to consider selling that. I like the album but only play it on occasion and I would much rather have the money.


£144 for Punisher as well, god damn!
 

Here's another. I bought this for £60 in 2017 and remember thinking it was an outrageous amount to be spending. Turns out it was a good move afterall.

£222 median with the cheapest listed at £383. Madness
