I have it on both CD and vinyl.
I guess I could burn it, and then ebay the CD.
It's not mint. Gee, I wonder if I could still get $3,000 for it? 
Sheesh!

Mark,
That last copy that Tissue Engineer(TE) sold brought a little over a grand--he told me so. He payes premimum and sells--well...you can see for yourself.
I have been looking for that CD to complete the three MCA set of recordings that Flux made when he was with them.
It's certainly not worth what TE is asking. |

| At least he's not making any profit on the $47.00 shipping charge.... |

Prices like that are absolutely ridiculous, but these offers are usually not for music lovers, they are for collectors (which isn't necessarily the same!). I know a couple of people who are collecting early and rare rockabilly - prices of 1,000$ for an obscure single are very common. And the most interesting thing: Some of the collectors don't even listen to the music, it's the possession of this one piece of vinyl that counts for them....
Kind Regards, Walter

I have a vinyl disc I'll sell 'em for a mere thousand.
It's my old Frisbee. It's in good shape too! |

I guess it's true...some people do have more money than they do brains! 
Anyhow, the "street price" for this (supposedly rare) CD is under $100 right now. (And there's no shortage if you know where to look.) |

I sold a very limited edition ,1 of 1000, vinyl album produced by a local singer/somgwriter in 1969.. for $750 to a collector from japan on ebay.
It did have some provenance connected to it as
i was at the session and helped to distribute it.
