Got these from Goodwill for 49 cents each:
Motley Crue: Theatre of Pain
AC/DC: Pyromania
REO Speedwagon: Good Trouble, High InFedelity.
Styx: Pieces of Eight, Cornerstone, The Grand Illusion
Michael Stanley Band: Greatest Hits
Boston: Boston
Jethro Tull: Benefit
Pat Benatar: In The Heat of The Night, Crimes of Passion
Foreigner: 4, Agent Provocateur
Loverboy: Keep it Up
Eagles: Hotel California, Their Greatest Hits
Electric Light Orchestra: Discovery
Eddie Money: Life For The Taking
Bruce Springsteen: Born in the USA.


BTW, I'm going to sell Born in the USA, Life For The Taking, Cornerstone, The Grand Illusion, and High InFedelity to a guy at the flea market, because I already have them.  What do you think a fair price would be for them?  Could I at least make my $10 back?

[den68]

heck yeah. while most thrift stores sell records for $.50 - $1.00 I wouldn't flinch at paying $2 apiece if they are in decent shape.

You got some nice ones there. Discovery is a great album, so is Benefit. Nice score on the Crue too, I've yet to find any of their albums.

AC/DC: Pyromania??? isn't that Def Leppard?

[NES_Rules]

My mistake.  It was Def Leppard.   I also got Flick of the Switch by AC/DC. 

Thanks for the price check, if he tries to rip me off, I'll sell them to you, if you want them. 


Today, at the same location I got some more.  Less records, but 2 of the best artists ever.
Crosby, Stills, and Nash- Crosby, Stills, and Nash
Eddie Money- Eddie Money
And now, 2 of the greatest albums of all time:
Pink Floyd-Dark Side of the Moon
Led Zeppelin- IV
Just out of curiosity, what do you think those last 2 are worth?

[den68]

I really don't know the value for records. My collecting is confined to thrifts, fleas and garage sales.

here's a place you could get a good answer though: http://www.recordcollectorsguild.org/

I've got the 4 you're selling but if you want to sell Theatre of Pain or Flick of The Switch I'm interested.

mt latest:

John Cougar - American Fool
Blackfoot - Strikes
Bad Company - Straight Shooter
Christine McVie - Christine McVie
ELO - Ole ELO
Bruce Hornsby & The Range - Scenes From The Southside
Bus Boys - Minimum Wage Rock N Roll

here's an odd one:

Denny McClain - At The Organ, The Detroit Tigers Superstar Swings With Today's Hits

McClain was on the 68 Tigers World Series team. While lately he's more famous for his troubles with the law he once was a 30 game winner. The sleeve has him on the mound in uniform. A pretty unique record plus a nice piece of Tigers memorabilia.

lastly:

a Matthew Sweet promo picture disk.

[NES_Rules]

I tried that site, but they ave way too many boards, I got so confused.  I posted in "Tell me about "Price Guides" and the value of my records."  but it must have been deleted because I can't find my message now. 
Someone did say they were worth only about $1 each. 

I'm keeping Theatre of Pain an Flick of The Switch, but you probably wouldn't want them anyway.  They look like they were sitting in water for the past few years, the sleeves are all rotted away on the bottom half, the vinyl is still god though, so it doesn't bother me.

[den68]

I stay away from sleeves that are water damaged unless it's minor. I've passed on many really great albums I wanted because the sleevs were trashed. I've also seen the reverse many times, immaculate sleeves and vinyl that looks like it was used for home plate.

[NES_Rules]
