colbourne25 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I managed to get Stories from the City and Is This Desire shortly before they sold out. £50 each. These aren't represses are they? Just old stock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fish Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Is This Desire and Stories were crazy steals. The rest I probably wouldn't have bothered with for those prices. This shit has to get repressed officially someday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, these were super cheap. Stories, Uh Huh Her, and Is this Desire have been hundreds of dollars for years. I certainly paid much more than what they just sold for.

True but if they did announce represses the values of these originals would most likely drop substantially and it would suck for anyone who just bought these because it is the only way to listen to them vs someone who wants them as a collectors item. I don't see represses coming soon but we all see represses of much less in demand items so these have to happen someday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be curious to know what the average % drop is for albums that are in the few hundred dollar range, after the repress happens. I wouldn't think more than 25-35%? I'd assume most people that would buy the original pressings would be more collectors, not just people who have to find a way to listen to it on vinyl. i.e. a casual fan isn't going to plump down $100-200 just to listen to it on vinyl.

Probably depends on the artists and their crazy fan bases. I know that PJ's no code would sell for $200 regularly a couple years ago, and now you can find them under $100. Still not cheap, but definitely worth a lot less. I also snagged an OG copy of Sun Kil Moon's Ghosts recently for under $100 which was unheard of not long ago.

LeeKaye Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Kind of glad I missed some of these as I would have splurged big time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plarocks Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 If someone wants to unload an OG “Is This Desire” for what they paid, even when the re-issues come out, please PM. I have OGs of most of the others. Kick myself for not buying it for $22.99 when it was at my local years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
