The only one I don’t have. I’ve been holding out for an OP, maybe I shouldn’t wait much longer!

I have the repress from a few years ago and it's also fantastic

I don't quite know how I didn't put two and two together, but if you look at your own Discogs profile not logged in you can see the for sale listings, makes it easier to find things that are listed for silly money. This one actually does seem to be selling a bit though

This may fit more into the "that escalated quickly" category more than "common records", but if I was a flipper, a Metallica singles vinyl club membership would be paying for itself several times over:

My brother gave me the four 7" from the Metallica club for Christmas. I'm not really a Metallica fan and haven't opened them yet but man, what a jerk would I be for selling flipping them?!

Sell them and take your brother out to lunch.

I could probably take him to French Laundry for what they're asking on Discogs!

Reminding me to open the storage boxes to dig out my copies.

I’ve been wanting Sonic Youth’s Washing Machine for a bit, stumbled across one on Bitterroot Records & Goods HOME for $25. I guess I hadn’t looked in a while, but the prices for the last sales are insane!

Wow. They're listed for quite a bit, right now. I hadn't noticed.

I bought mine through the Import CDs Ebay account back in 2016. I just found my confirmation email.

Damn that’s a smokin deal!

 

[Dead C]

Damn that’s a smokin deal!

Yeah. That's why I went back to look it up. I couldn't remember what I paid, but I remembered I got a good deal on it. Better than I remembered.

I sold “Lil Dicky - Professional Rapper” on Reddit for like $18 bucks and now it is regularly kissing $100+!

this makes me sad. I love that album

Often 2-4x that now to boot. I'd probably buy a new press but that went nuts

this one shot up in price.

 

[waruv]

Yeah, luckily I think Plans has been repressed so that'll hopefully fall?

Guessing this one might be a result of them still not shipping last year's small repress?

I'm pretty sure I picked this up from the VMP store when they put it on sale for $11.
