deafening Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 ^ Your avatar is my reaction to you paying $80 for it. Luckily, I found on RSD for $20. It was worth it. I didn't start collecting until after it was released so I'm just happy to own it. I just need to get my hands on the RSD Anberlin Cities now.

Tawney Bomb Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Around $85 for Colors by Between the Buried and Me. Got repressed within 2 months. Bleh. Spent about the same on Deflorate by the Black Dahlia Murder. They waited two years to repress that, I felt better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrice55 Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 180 international ppd for Thrice - Alchemy Index (includes defective Earth also). Up to that point was $65 ppd from a dude in Budapest for TREOS - Earth Sings... In no way do I regret either, Alchemy was easily my most sought after record hands down. I still feel like I got a crazy good deal on both and they're two albums that I never see being repressed. Now all I truly have to get to complete my "must haves" list would be The Mars Volta - Deloused, which shhh don't tell HippieLauryn.. I plan on buying a boot from discogs around tax return time. Hehehe, unless however someone here has an extra boot they wanna kick me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawhizz Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 couple of pricey ones for me (excluding box sets): ~$120 Finch - What It Is To Burn (1st Press) $75 The Felix Culpa - Commitment (Test Press, /5) $65 Every Time I Die - Last Night In Town (Test Press 4/10) $65 Every Time I Die - Gutter Phenomenon (Test Press 4/10) would be willing to go broke for more ETID tests, too. How'd you snag the Committment test press, if I may be so bold to inquire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackAlleyRiot Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 $50 (USD) for the Huntingtons "High School Rock" album. I bought it at their reunion show which was a benefit show for the drummers wife. Totally worth it and I would've paid more than double that. brianmorgante 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paynegretzky Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 $65 on yeezus when it was first released on bootleg, i believe vinyl-digital has it cheaper now. after that 42 for my beautiful dark twisted fantasy. these are canadian prices, so they're always a tad higher than USD.

CathedralStudios Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Lost my gourd once and paid 250 for Emmylou's Wrecking Ball. Felt guilty so I turned it around, but I did get a good listen in before I let it go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biodigitaljazz Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 $105 for a mint copy of Riot on white from a mod here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elnombre91 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Around 95 quid (I say around cos I bought two other things and got them shipped from Germany for £120) for a test of the latest Jackals LP /3, I know it's probably over the odds for a band not many people care about, but I don't care. Gonna be so happy when it turns up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rapidfiretollbooth Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Just dropped $75 to get Beloved(US)-Failure On. Only 1100 copies and only 150 copies of the Aqua Marble which is the variant I got. Was looking for this album for a while now so dropped the funds when I saw someone selling it on Discogs.

bobpaul Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 $400.00 on The XX self titled Sculpture of an Album edition. #001/500 How could I be so crazy to spend that much on that album? It's my favorite album, and I can't imagine there being a more sought after version of this album than 001/500. I never see the first of any edition available, not to mention my favorite album's 001. mcguirk, cobannaboc and WAXXX 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 interesting. Didn't mean to downplay your 001/500, because that's a feat in itself. I'm assuming you bought it from a friend or relative of the band? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
