What's The Most Valuable Record In Your Collection?

[MikeH]

Sorted by median value (jealous of all of you with the mono Beatles box...)

 

[BjorgenFjorgen]

Ah I didn’t realise that but I could have bought all 8 on 45RPM mofi mono and had change to spare from $520 lol

Yeah, I think it first came out in 2010 or so and was out of print for almost a decade.

Today marks the 3 year anniversary of coming back to the hobby, it's been a bit crazy, interesting, educational, frustrating and now, finally, on an even keel with some solid direction and enjoyment. Some BIG thank you's need to go out to fellow forum members for a couple of these in one way, shape or form, so THANK YOU!

The top 10 as of today

My collection isn't too expensive but I also have a video game soundtrack as my top... (sorted by median)

I posted exactly a year ago. Interesting to see how things moved! Surprised that most everything shot up. Defo added a few things. Sorted by median price.

 

[Skacel]

I also see you Slipknot creeping in at number 23. That record I got for like 9 bucks at www.insound.com 3 or so years ago.

Yeah that is a strange one, I got that one for about £10 a while ago. It’s actually one of my best sounding records.

Deftones Diamond Eyes also goes for quite a bit these days although they did a repress recently.

 

[TrainFan73]

Beatles Mono in top spot median and max.
Blonde in second median. Bill Evans Trio Sunday at the Village Vanguard Mofi in max. Here’s the rest of the top dozen in median:

Median update. Worth noting I lost money on that Neil Young Box with bad glue! Everything else up from MSRP. Gotta sort by max to get any albums I bought used in there. Crazy.

 

[dhodo]

Top 6 max is pretty different, but mostly because it seems like someone went crazy on mint Funkadelic originals.

$1000 USD for Santana? Wha, why, how?

$1000 USD for Santana? Wha, why, how?

This was the 1st UD1S repress box. Long delayed from initial announcement. A lot if pent up demand. Pressing #s were relatively low and demand for over/premium priced reissues was underestimated. They are nice records but not the best value.

My “regular” Mo-Fi pressing of this also sounds great so there are other excellent options for this record.

$1000 USD for Santana? Wha, why, how?

I was just eyeing a live Facebook auction for this and it sold for $900. It was limited to 1500 copies (for reference the other one steps I think are around 9,000).

The vinyl value bubble has hit an entirely new level of ridiculousness...



Collection Value:* Min $50,395.94 Med $84,998.53 Max $155,059.70

Anyone who'd like to give me my max, I'll have them boxed up for you.

And I thought my $94,249 was wild.
