150 dollars plus 28 shipping (!) a few years back for a sealed first U K pressing of Pink Floyd dark side of the moon with the blue prism. I thought I was nuts after buying it but when I see what they go for now ... I guess I was (accidently) wise to get it when I did. I have paid upwards to 100 dollars(and over) for quite a few scarce , limited and mint or sealed lp,s. I,m not a collector though in the true sense because much to the dismay of my friends I open them and play and thoroughly enjoy them. I like the music itself and if its sitting in a shelf sealed and un-used to me it might as well be a rock. I have so many lp,s I paid so little for that were well looked after in my mind I can justify treating myself to the more expensive ones now and then. But like most of us those rare finds that are getting scarcer to find cheap are always the best. Like a stone mint mono copy of Surrealistic Pillow by Jefferson Airplane for 5 Bucks at a garage sale last summer. It all balances out in the end which comes to quick not to enjoy and treat yourself! Cheers.
