michel1969 Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Note that you have to be pre approved. Does it means that Ebay's staff will check the size of your house ? And.. what if i just want to buy the guy on picture ? is it included in the collection ? Or sold separately ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainwrong Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 ... lets put all our money together greatest record/music collection on earth must be the most expensive storage problem in the world. you know ... looking at three pieces of cake makes you hungry but looking at three million pieces of cake makes you ... sick. Indeed. I've been following this story for a while. I'm really skeptical about the value and quality of this collection. This guy has been trying to sell it for about four years now. Long story short, he's had a couple legit offers which fell through or didn't meet his standards for the amount he wanted for it (he started asking $25 million and turned his nose up at the Library of Congress' $12 mil offer) now he can't give it away for the "bargain" price of $3 million (this was the second shot on eBay.) The dude wrote price guides, delt in remainders and cut-outs and has been kind of cagey about letting people see the computerized inventory lists. Color me skeptical about this being the greatest music collection in the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geils Band album on the right (Full House) is a fine one "first i look at the purse" is one of the titles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

porcy62 Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Overall, for me this thread is comforting compared to stock exchanges indexes, considering that I got many of the records named here and no JP Morgan or Merril Lynch funds!

clifford_thornton Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Well, I'm happy with a nice later stereo pressing, as I am with many of these titles (and no stocks). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Bresnahan Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 Best Buy issued a vinyl version of a compilation by The Who called "Amazing Journey". I picked up a copy yesterday for $11.99. Unfortunately, Best Buy seems to have misjudged the demand. eBay already has one that went for $71. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michel1969 Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 I think we will soon get used to see those Coltrane on Impulse reach higher prices than before... Afterall, they have all needed to be interesting records to collect : nice art covers, heavy gatefold package, quality vinyl and RVG recording... no need to talk about the music, one of the most important musician of the XXth century...I have tried to gather my Coltrane on Impulse when they were still affordable ( 10 - 5 years ago), and i'm not surprised to see that the take off roll is engaged. Anyway, if someone has a NM Mono copy of Impulse 21, the first Coltrane Quartet on Impulse, (and my favourite Coltrane) let me know....

Peter A Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 I think we will soon get used to see those Coltrane on Impulse reach higher prices than before... It is a bit like Kind Of Blue: not a rare record at all, but there is such high demand that it always fetches rather high prices. I have seen 100's of copies of A Love Supreme or Ballads being sold on eBay the last couple of years; they never sell below $100-150, though. Having said that, it is not so easy to find decent copies of real first pressings (shiny label; "Ampar" imprint on the bottom of label) of the first couple of Coltranes on Impulse!

Kevin Bresnahan Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 The mono tape for these Impulse! releases was created by summing the left & right of the stereo tape. RVG had stopped making a dedicated mono mix by the late 50's. If you can't afford one these pricy monos, just play the stereo version and use a Y cord to combine the two channels.
