travis Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 $100 for NOFX - Wolves on yellow w/ an autographed cover that Fat sold as a benefit for Lance Hahn. They sold 20 of them for that. Figured it was worth it for a good cause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deadreckoning Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I used to refuse to spend over ten bucks for anything. However, i been on a buying binge lately and have dropped over 60 beans on several records. Well over for one HWM test press in particular. It was a bidding war and i won. I sold a NOFX record for > $500 once. i bought it new for 8 bucks in high school. nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcpherson123 Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I am a fan of more bang for buck. And also not spending more than $20 for an album me too, that's generally my philosophy I wish life could be like this but some records are just more expensive. Do you just deal with the fact that there are some records you'll never have very often or do just manage to get every release you want when its first released so you never have to go back and buy out of print records?

Black goes for stupid cash. White with red splatter goes for significantly less ($50-ish, last I checked). Still, if you're in a pinch... (for others, to clarify. I got a copy.)

plasma36 Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 me too, that's generally my philosophy I wish life could be like this but some records are just more expensive. Do you just deal with the fact that there are some records you'll never have very often or do just manage to get every release you want when its first released so you never have to go back and buy out of print records? The former. If I need to own an album and see that I'll probably never own it on vinyl I'll pick up the CD. What has happened twice though is I bought the CD with that thinking and found the record for cheap (Battles "Mirrored" and The Explosion "Black Tape"). Then there's also the fact that as much as I like Isis/Brand New/Converge/etc I don't like them enough to pay market price for their albums. And not caring about variants has helped me keep costs down. I'll go with whatever's cheapest. Even if I could afford to buy everything I want before it goes out of print, there are tons of albums I adore that are out of print long before I know them.
