2014 Official Year Roundup

[bosshoss]

What would members on this forum consider a fair worth for the sleeve? It's pretty close to mint condition. We haven't gotten that far yet on the oracle.

When there was only one known copy, it was worth $1000
When there was two, it was worth $750
Now that there's three, it's worth $199

This one? Someone got a good deal there.

Killer deal! Hard to pass that one up.

So if I made a deal for a buncha 45's in December and put aside the money before new years, but picked'em up on January 2nd 2015... does it belong in the 2014 roundup or do I have to include them in 2015?

Couldn't you just lie? Nobody would know.

J. Gale and the Games - Suds (Eyeball) Great frat boozer and neato down geared country thud loser on the flip. Found in the freezer above. Already had a copy or two I got from the source five or 6 years ago, but had never found a wild copy since hearing it on a Buffalo Bop comp 15 years back.

Hah! Re-reading your post I suddenly realized I bought this as well in 2014, probably from a friend of yours? (Jason) He included a promo photo, worth the price of admission alone. Great stuff! Anyhoot, just wanna say I always enjoy your posts, great to read a bit more about each 45 than just a long list.

I am the Jason you got that J Gale 45 from! Really cool record, and YES the promo pic is pretty amazing in and of itself!

 

[Mr.Segment]

Eternally grateful for the photo, up for framing soon!

Nah, 2015: think how much better your 2015 list will look. I made a significant purchase on 1st January, but it'll have to wait till the end of the year to be listed.

there are no rules in rock n' roll

 

[Outside_Lookin_in]

True, but garage enthusiasts are inherently honest people... (Okay, with a few notable exceptions.)

 

[nadorozny2001]

new acquisitions included the first Our Generation album

where did you find that lp ? i was offered one for a thousand bucks but turned it down

We all need to thank the Lord that Jason doesn't brag about finds like the rest of us. Absolutely sick sick sick.

Wow! Echoes Of Time has eluded my best efforts to track a copy so far. Seems to be ultra rare...Great score Måns!

May I be so bold as to assume that these belonged to PL and were sold via SK? Would have liked to upgrade my copies with these, but he seemed to have quite an airy price-idea... Congrats though!

 

[mansson66]

You assume right. I got to go through stuff before it's been listed, and I don't think the price ended up very airy. Not cheap of course... but I paid well less than what I paid for Children of the Mushroom or Caretakers of Deception. I made a deal with SK for six 45s and the total was pretty reasonable in all. These Lemon Fog 45s were PL's faves in the small collection of 45s he kept, so they mean a lot as a memory of him for me as well.

 

[MopTopMike]

Where did PL's stereo Shoestring 45 end up?

 

[mansson66]

It was sold many years ago when he sold most of his 45's. He only kept one box and concentrated on LP's after that.

 

[starfire103]

Arg, The Nightbirds! Want that 45 bad....

there was one on ebay that ended yesterday, it sold way less than the last copy in october, prices on the nightbirds 45s always seem to vary a lot, don't know why.

Shit, did not notice. I've given up on saved searches (for the most, getting spammed to death) and the world simply has too much quality 45s on offer each week, I can't afford to keep up! But that was a good price. For the buyer
