Records aren’t dumb. People who spend this kind of money on records are dumb. There’s a reason I’m mostly happy with my cds of the Crowes. But they’re on the list for snatching represses.

Got this for a $5 raffle ticket at a pre-party / fundraiser for a Pearl Jam show in 2013. I played Ten on Connect 4 day, so I'll go with the Drop In the Park show included in this set for today.

Boldy James x The Alchemist - Bo Jackson

A hundo for this 2xLP Alchemist drop. Don't regret it at all, as it's already absurdly priced on the aftermarket. The underground hip-hop vinyl market is a borderline dog eat dog world to fans' wallets.

Goose "2019.11.16 Buffalo NY" (2021 self-released)
This is going for ridiculous money considering what I paid for it. Discogs says $228 min, $285 mid, $349 max. The live recording is phenomenal and the pressing itself is excellent. Includes a great live cover of Take On Me.

Brandi Carlile - Live at Benaroya Hall

The last couple sold for over $200 and the only one still listed is at $300. Normally I sell when they get to this level, but I'm not sure this will get a repress and it's one of the best albums I own.

Edit: I've been on a couple year record buying spree, probably should calm down so I can go on an upgrade spree next 😏

When I saw how much this 4 track ep is going for is when I knew that record collecting had jumped the fucking shark. I got it from her webstore for $15

I’ve thought about selling off my Brandi Carlile collection because I have one of every variant and I don’t really need them. They’re going for crazy money.
