World's Most Expensive Record? (1 Viewer)

There was an article about this record in the current(or at least a recent) issue of Record Collector magazine. Obviously to build hype for the sale.
Soul records do seem to be where a lot of insane money is spent.
 
anyone got a fairly rare/expensive record?
i have a bunch.
i have a syd barret 7" that has his name spelt 'barrat'.

also have 2 white stripes 12'' promos. one is limited to 500 copies,
one is limited to 300 copies.

i wouldnt use it as accurate figures but the record collector bible has the barrat one for 200 sterling, and white stripes for 200 and 300 i think.
 
There are only two copies so I'd say you're grand, Wobbler ;) I'd love to get a repress of this, never seen it anywhere though.

If I were you I'd set up a Discogs account and add the 2004 repress to your want list. I've managed to find loads of records that way.

I got my copy for a fiver in HMV a couple of years ago so don't pay too much for it.
If you want it straight away PM me and I'll email you a 320 kbps mp3.

thanks dude, you're very kind :) Daydream Nation's been telling me to join discogs for ages, I do browse through it for info but must join alright and get a want list together.
 
have a few rare records but mightn't be too pricey, depends on the market, hence the soul records going for mad money, there are alot of mental soul heads out there...have a Richard Hell- Blank Generation test pressing that i picked up real cheap, which would probably get me a few quid compared to what i paid for it.

Have heard of a record going for $250,000 mind. From a dealer friend in LA. Its a super super rare Sun Ra record. Found in a boot sale and sold in private. Sun Ra did a residency in a club for a few weeks in LA during the early 60's, to drum up some bodies, the club used to press about 10 records from the previous weeks show and give them out to the first couple of customers. But one day Miles Davies turned up and decided to jam with the Ra, and some Japanese collector went mental for it....i offered him 2.50 :rolleyes:....but as i said i was told this so don't quote me on it :p
 
I can't find anything worth big money, I have a few Elliott Smith things worth a few bob but nothing major, like this if I remember correctly: http://www.discogs.com/sell/list?release_id=979928&ev=rb

I thought this one would be worth more:

I hate to burst your bubble but both of those items can be picked up for less then a fiver;

If you're mad into Elliott Smith you should check out the track Ghostwriter by RJD2

cheers for the link!

Nah no bubble burst, I don't expect that any of my stuff is worth loads. It's probably worth more in sentimental value to fans, y'know?

Ok, check it out - I have, on 12 inches of glorious yellow vinyl, the super r@r€ acoustic version of wanted dead or alive by Bon Jovi. Who wants to touch me?

Actually, the Jungle and Hardcore I have could fetch some serious wedge, but i'd only sell the shite drum and bass ones, and they're worth fuck all so it doesn't matter really.
