king ubu Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 USED Hank Mobley that sold for $125.50 PLUS shipping, and the listing even quotes from and CITES the Mosaic web site! P.T. Barnum's famous quote is alive and well. ← Maybe he was hoping for that light-brown patina? Quote

tranemonk Posted June 18, 2005 Report Posted June 18, 2005 Took longer than I thought to show up.... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...4740387087&rd=1 my guess is it goes for at least $200.... Quote
StormP Posted June 18, 2005 Report Posted June 18, 2005 How about a Jack Sheldon 10" LP for $94.00 on Ebay. The lp is full of ticks, the cover looks like !!!! JACK SHELDON ??? Quote
StormP Posted June 19, 2005 Report Posted June 19, 2005 The Sheldon LP "Get out of town" went for $94.90. I am just looking at a l0" LP - "Albert Nicholas" in Poland (live concert) recorded 1957 or 58 I think. MUZA Polska Nagrania L 0161 sealed, never opened. I understand this is a collectors item in Poland. This is from the communist era. WOW $ 94.90 for Jack Sheldon. I must be sitting on a gold mine. Quote

Not much of a collectors item I'd think; I had two copies and gave one away... Strange that you mention its being sealed, I can hardly imagine these were ever sealed originally. Is it in one of those flimsy generic covers? Quote

Also without any specific text and a hole in the back so you can read the label. Were there more than one release with different looks maybe? Quote
Ron S Posted June 21, 2005 Report Posted June 21, 2005 Over 180 bucks for a Clef/Verve Fifties Basie set that looks "virtually unused." I guess a set no longer has to be out-of-print to fetch a healthy premium, just in print for at least 3 months. Quote

Aggie87 Posted June 22, 2005 Report Posted June 22, 2005 Okay, not mosaic, not a box set, not even jazz. But here's an officially released CDR from Stephen Wilson of Porcupine Tree, going for $355, with about an hour left... Steven Wilson - Unreleased Electronic Music Quote

Templejazz Posted June 24, 2005 Report Posted June 24, 2005 Not a box set really but....YOWZA! Look at the shipping too! Woody Shaw Quote
Edward Posted June 24, 2005 Report Posted June 24, 2005 I've never seen this particular set go for so much, and there are still four days left in the auction. Moreover, this may be the highest price I've seen paid per Mosaic lp. Mosaic Box Quote
DrJ Posted June 24, 2005 Report Posted June 24, 2005 Some Mosaic lunacy: Maynard Ferguson CD set is going for over $500 and still has 10 hours to go! Master Jazz Piano box (vinyl) went for $255...not too crazy, but I scored a copy of this just a couple weeks back for under $100! Go figure... Quote
couw Posted June 24, 2005 Report Posted June 24, 2005 [Albert Nicholas on Muza] ← interesting, thanks for the clarification. Another 10"LP, Willis Connover presents some Polish musicians, I also know to exist with two different covers, one generic and one with text and picture. I wonder whether the nice one may be for the foreing market. To add, other Muza disks I have seen multiple copies of had different font-types on the labels. Quote
tranemonk Posted July 3, 2005 Report Posted July 3, 2005 okay now why would I bid on this???? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...4742753253&rd=1 at least he got the starting bid right..... Quote
