$100 for Cap'n Jazz's Burritos, inspiration point, fork balloon sports, cards in the spokes, automatic biographies, kites, kung fu, trophies, banana[AKA Shmap'n Shmazz] at a local used shop last year.

If that record was right in front of me I would've done the same thing.

It was that or Reinventing Axl Rose on red 1st press for $40, and I didn't have enough money for both.

- $214.99 ppd for Boris "Smile" Diwphalanx press /500 (one of the first few copies sold on ebay)

- $210.99 ppd for Boris "Vein" (both versions)

- $120.99 ppd for Boris "Smile" Diwphalanx press /500 (still sealed...had to bring my average cost down, as my first copy was the first time I ever spent so much on a record, let alone a NEW one... ::))

- $101.00 ppd for Boris "Dronevil" on black...a little too much, but hey, it happens.

Also:

- $154.99 ppd for Sigur Ros 7xLP box set

...and the moral of the story...damn you Boris!! :P

About 15 years ago I paid $75 for a copy of SS Decontrol's "The Kids Will Have Their Say". At the time I felt sick to my stomach about it and wondered if I was insane. I sold it for $150 years later during a time I was trying to finance guitar gear. Now it's worth double that and I paid more than that for records that meant less to me.
