Is there some place where these hyper-inflated prices are mentioned? Like "Goldmine" or some obscure 'Net auction site? I probably have a lot of the aforementioned stuff just gathering dust, because I'm completely out of that loop. Can I sucker some rivethead kid into taking my TG "United" 7" (with camo pic sleeve bag) for $300? :-) (Damn, now I'll have to go kill my dog for destroying my original Cosey Fanni Tutti "Time To Tell" cassette ... :-( ) What's my "Ambiant Otaku" going for nowadays, anyway? :-)

Agreed, but modulo the packaging. For example, I'd bit on a Joyrex J9i because of the tracks *and* the packaging. On the other hand, I think the one-sided AFX "Falling Free" remix of Curve isn't worth the packaging (i.e., one-sided, plain record, no pic sleeve, etc.) so I'm happy to have it on a CD-WO burn. (Thanks and a tip 'o the hat to Ian) - Greg (the suddenly greedy old record collector)
