Most Paid for Vinyl LP

Same as Slaw for me. I’ve got a few UHQR’s that were $150 a pop. They do sound good (IMO) so I think they were worth it. I’ve got a few albums I bought about 30 years ago that have greatly increased in value so I’m probably even or maybe slightly ahead. 

I list my mind and paid over $300 for Michael Hobson’s personal collection sealed copy of the Classic Records “Peter Gabriel Plays Live” through Acoustic Sounds.  

Lost not list

Like Slaw, I had to try a UHQ cut of a Steelie Dan album.  $150.00.

Yes, it sounds a bit better, beautiful presentation, might become a collection item, but hard to justify additional purchases...

Man, I’ve spent money on records. I got a mint LZII RL both sides narrow dead wax side 2 - I gave my friend 300 for it a number of years ago.  I have two other copies that aren’t as clean. 

A lot of the private label jazz cost me more than that. Some has been reissued, but not all reissues compare to the OGs.

Some of the more rarified Vertigo Swirls cost even more. Cressida, both albums. A few others. I think I have close to 45 or 50 OGs, mainly UK. 

Some records I bought when they were cheap--

I figure that it all evens out at a certain point. I got an Italian Mercury DDLind- paid 27 dollars for it, unplayed, still in questionable shrink. That record was selling for 2 grand at one point. 

I don’t worry about market value. When I die, it won’t mean anything. Enjoy what you have~
