kulu se mama Posted October 14, 2004 Report Posted October 14, 2004 after a lull and flat prices it seems that things are on the upswing for mosaics on ebay. a t-bone walker just went for $333 (it's been averaging in the mid 100's). a maynard feguson just went for over $600. and to top it all off a ammons/lewis (all 2 cd's of it) went for $242. wow.

J.A.W. Posted October 14, 2004 Report Posted October 14, 2004 Are you talkin about cd sets? The T-Bone Walker was a CD-set. I had an eye on that one, but $333 is a bit too rich for me... Quote
kulu se mama Posted October 14, 2004 Author Report Posted October 14, 2004 yeah, these were all cd sets. it surprised me because i did not think the ammons/lewis was ever on cd. i just noticed that a master jazz piano 4 cd set went for over $300. i never saw that one top $150. Quote

I bought a sealed cd set on eBay one years ago for less then 250 bucks. There must some hardcore Mosaic Cd fans who just got heritages!!! Quote
porcy62 Posted October 14, 2004 Report Posted October 14, 2004 (edited) Mosaic eBay is definitely crazy, one small example: I lost a Blakey lp set that went for more than 500 bucks, I won the same set for 250 three weeks later. My opinion is: sit down on the banks of the river and wait your enemy's corpse, (chinese wisdom) B-) Edited October 14, 2004 by porcy62 Quote

Leeway Posted October 21, 2004 Report Posted October 21, 2004 Here are some LP sets that went for well below average prices. Mosaic Tina Brooks LPs $60 Art Pepper Pacific Jazz $57 Bud Powell 5 LPs $76 Freddie Redd Blue Note Mosaic $49 Mosaic Complete BN Freddie Redd LPs $61 Cecil Taylor Buell Neidlinger Mosaic $87 One possible reason for these "low" prices (relatively low, anyway) might be that much of this material has been-- or is being-- reissued in many forms. You get the booklet with Mosaic, but otherwise, in many cases, the music is often available in other -- and sometimes superior audio versions-- from other sources. Of course, the vagaries of the auction market might be just as good a reason. Quote
kulu se mama Posted October 22, 2004 Author Report Posted October 22, 2004 there is a mosaic sampler on ebay right now that is up to $82. this looks like something fishy is going on. Quote
