all up at the same time, ebay.com looks like a psych monster's ball right now. And the prices achieved at this point dont hint at a double dip recession. Some people are in for tremendous x/mas presents, too bad it wont be me...
 
These LPs (other than the Bachs) I've heard are from one of the 'heaviest' collections in the world (LO?). Maybe someone can confirm....

No matter what the economic situation is, there is always somebody(s) with the money to buy rare records....bank on it!
 
Wow, just looked at his completed listings - a Maitreya Kali twofer for 10K! A major rarity.....but 10K? that's gotta be in the top 5 for psych/rock LP prices. The only one I know for sure that's gone for more is the WCPAEB FIFO LP with cover. Possibly the Arkay IV LP.
 
If I were auctioning these I would only do one at a time, with a few weeks between each offering to maximize winning bid potential.
J.J did something similar - the "too many garage 45 killers auctioned at once" deal when he bought the Kesteloo collection. He short-changed himself because people had to prioritize their choices of 45s to bid on. 20 to 30 monsters per list only ensured that most serious bidders eventually would win something.
