    I don't remember any Pablo LP really being a "hit" in their time.

    Well I have a different view on that statement and found the Pablo catalogue very exciting.

    Some great Coltrane and Basie recordings. Dont think  there were many of those "one day flies" we see issued so often these days. Pablo had issued   real tasteful and excellent  recordings with a fine soundquality. Others may see it different because their taste is different.

    Here is my list and many Items were very good on the sales and I wont miss even one of them.

    ......................
    I have nothing to contribute to this question but the follownig sentence "For Imports, the country they are imported from is the country of release" seems to be the decisive one IMHO.

    BTW, since Elektro Egger was mentioned several times (some of my older "Bielefelder Katalog" volumes were handed out by them), I am surprised that someone came up with the idea of contacting them about these reissues and their importing policies. As far as I know (and as was confirmed in the obit of Manfred Scheffner in the "Süddeutsche Zeitung" online issue) the Elektro Egger shop is long gone.

    Thanks for your reply. Discogs is a 'closed shop' with its own amateurmade rules. The real world outside Discogs looks in many situations different. The main philosophy here is at the moment that in the forum discussions the result is found by majority decisions. If a little majority decides black = white the it is valid until a new decision comes to a different result. I was in and out two times  because of this 'Kindergarten' behaviour and everytime I di leave I lost all my contributions (listed record collection, ranking a.o features) because the account will be closed then and you can start only with a new username and a new membership.

    Main rule is "to submit whats printed on a official release" and not whats inside (= music). Valid is every kind of noise on the medium. Important is whats printed on the envelope/cover or what else.

    The main question in the thread was are these japanese made Mercury vinyls a product for the market there or for the US. It is a fakt that I bought a great part of this EXPR series at Egger and  Saturn (Cologne). Cant imagine these big retailers did reimport from the US. The Import lists from Scheffner show clearly (have linked them in the thread)   these vinyl are Japan made  and Imports to the US and other countries. But some 'knowalls' know it better so my arguments were not seen correctly and the speculation where Egger got his merchandise did win.

    Important for me is I have the music on the discs. These forum decisions are highly questionable and mostly private opinions how the guidelines have to be interpreted.

    Can you provide a direct link to the discussion going on at Discogs?

    https://www.discogs.com/forum/thread/1051144?message_id=10873180#10873180

    The result is still  ridiculous for me. Noone of the "yes" voters had supplied any proof for that crazy theoy except me.

    So I wish you happy reading. A few "big egos" do dominate Discogs and the owners are busy to make money.

    Thanks for your Interest.

    Mark Masters is still at it. I have a couple of his more recent CDs, a Gary McFadden tribute, "Wish Me Well" (2006) & an Ellington tribute, "Ellington Saxophone Encounters" (2012). I bought both mainly because they have Gary Smulyan on them but I have no regrets as there is some great playing by all on these two.

    Thats good news. Even I did slow down buying more CD's  these might be interesting for me as big band fan  and I will have a look for Items with reasonable price.

    And yes Gary Smulyan is a fine bariton player

    Thanks for the Info
