garthsj Posted November 28, 2004 Report Posted November 28, 2004 I have mentioned several times that I have a Mosaic Shorty Rogers LP set that I hope one day to sell and buy a replacement 4-CD set. So, I keep my eyes open for a CD set on eBay ... There is one currently listed, and with 5 days to go there are 13 bids, and the price is over $150!! At this rate a 4-CD set will go for over $200 .... hmmmm.. I think that I will go for a CDR transfer instead ... Garth, Houston. Quote
Michel_M Posted December 3, 2004 Report Posted December 3, 2004 $3700 for a 45 Rpm !!!!! And the seller is the first one suprised by the bids Quote

Are many other Mosaic sets going for $50 a disc? Interestingly enough, fifteen years ago you could not have given anything by Shorty Rogers away! I am really impressed how much you "younger" folks on this board appreciate west coast jazz for what it is, unlike the previous generation that was very disparaging of that genre. It almost made me cry when I read a comment on here recently praising the Curtis Counce albums on OJC/Contemporary ... Quote

J.A.W. Posted December 8, 2004 Report Posted December 8, 2004 I don't know what the Basie Studio Mosaic CD-sets usually go for, but isn't this a bit extreme?? Quote
sidewinder Posted December 8, 2004 Report Posted December 8, 2004 (edited) I don't know what the Basie Studio Mosaic CD-sets usually go for, but isn't this a bit extreme?? It often goes for around the $800 mark in the CD format so this is about the right ball-park, I guess.. Edited December 8, 2004 by sidewinder Quote

sidewinder Posted December 20, 2004 Report Posted December 20, 2004 (edited) Frantic bidding here to secure a rare damaged in-print Byrd/Adams set Byrd Adams Blowout Edited December 20, 2004 by sidewinder Quote
Ron S Posted December 20, 2004 Report Posted December 20, 2004 (edited) Frantic bidding here to secure a rare damaged in-print Byrd/Adams set Byrd Adams Blowout "Current bid: US $99.99" "THE COVER HAS A SMALL TEAR ALONG THE SPINE." I guess this is worth at least $36 more than a brand-new set purchased directly from Mosaic because of this additional "patina." Edited December 20, 2004 by Ron S Quote
Ed S Posted December 20, 2004 Report Posted December 20, 2004 Maybe I'll sit on mine. Wonder what it will be worth then.... Quote

Ron S Posted December 31, 2004 Report Posted December 31, 2004 Classic:Â Don Pullen "DON PULLEN-Mosaic Select 3 CD RARE numbered sealed" I guess it's RARE because it's the only set that, while otherwise identical to a brand-new set that could be purchased from Mosaic for $39, has so far been bid up to $51.88 on Ebay. Who knew there was such a robust Arbitrage Market for Mosaics? Quote
Guest Chaney Posted December 31, 2004 Report Posted December 31, 2004 rare adj 1: not widely known; especially valued for its uncommonness; "a rare word"; "rare books" 2: recurring only at long intervals; "a rare appearance"; "total eclipses are rare events" 3: not widely distributed; "rare herbs"; "rare patches of gree in the desert" 4: marked by an uncommon quality; especially superlative or extreme of its kind; "what is so rare as a day in June"-J.R.Lowell; "a rare skill"; "an uncommon sense of humor"; "she was kind to an uncommon degree" [syn: uncommon] 5: having low density; "rare gasses"; "lightheaded from the rarefied mountain air" [syn: rarefied, rarified] 6: (of meat) cooked a short time; still red inside; "rare roast beef" If I were selling this set, I'd have no problem affixing the word rare to its description. Also, I'd be cackling with glee over the poor sods unwary enough to over-bid on a readilly available set. Can't say that I blame the seller on this one. Quote
brownie Posted January 7, 2005 Report Posted January 7, 2005 The Great Grand daughter of Lester Young is currently selling a number of magazines and other memorabilia that belonged to her grandmother who was Lester Young's daughter. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...3865165440&rd=1 Quote
AllenLowe Posted January 7, 2005 Report Posted January 7, 2005 It's kind of a silly auction - magazines that the daughter of Lester Young owned that are not worth anywhere near what she expects - unless Prez breathed on them, maybe - or unless they can lift some of his fingerprints off of them - Quote
