brownie Posted March 23, 2007 Report Posted March 23, 2007 MY GOD! Mind you I too have never seen the Japanese copy before now either ....but still $660 ouch...(ain't even that good I think) Now that he has reached 600, you should see other copies poping up very soon on Ebay... -_- It must be rare. I've never come across the King of this one either. Obviously a completist out there ! Never ran into that one either Quote
clifford_thornton Posted March 24, 2007 Report Posted March 24, 2007 Don't think this'll go for TOO much, but the paste-on sleeve is kind of interesting. Brownie, have you seen a Folkways-style jacket for this one? Spirits on Debut Mmmm, according to the auction description it's an "original Dutch pressing", while the label on the picture clearly mentions "Made in Denmark"... I have that album with the same Folkways-style jacket. And Made in Denmark pressing! This was the original issue. Yeah, the "Dutch" was obviously a goof - it appears to be white-on-black, rather than the white-on-white that I've seen elsewhere. I have the Transatlantic, and have never held the Debut in my hands. I emailed the seller, and they corrected the misinformation... Quote
clifford_thornton Posted March 24, 2007 Report Posted March 24, 2007 MY GOD! I remember getting offered loads of the LT version of that...literally handfuls of LPs and I think they were $5 a piece and I thought I should only buy 2 or 3 Mind you I too have never seen the Japanese copy before now either ....but still $660 ouch...(ain't even that good I think) I think it was a fluke. Just one bid-topper and one other goofball. None of the other bids were much higher than $100. Quote
brownie Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 Interesting! The Charlie Parker Benedettti Mosaic LP box reaches $560. Charlie Parker Mosaic The CD set is still available for $112! The seller is a familiar name around these parts Quote
michel1969 Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 This one also is available on CD. Anyway, they strongly prefer the original LP Quote

clifford_thornton Posted March 30, 2007 Report Posted March 30, 2007 Another free jazz record poised to go through the roof! Church #9 Quote

clifford_thornton Posted April 1, 2007 Report Posted April 1, 2007 Spirits on Debut Ended at about twice what I expected! Quote
shaft Posted April 1, 2007 Report Posted April 1, 2007 Top prices here....What I don't really like is eBays new policy where bidders real identity is hidden behind numbers. Don't ask me why? /Shaft Quote
clifford_thornton Posted April 1, 2007 Report Posted April 1, 2007 That's been talked about before at length - something to do with protecting identities from off-eBay sellers, but really it just encourages shilling. Hell, I might sell my copy of that Frank Wright to "Bidder 4" for $600! Quote
brownie Posted April 8, 2007 Report Posted April 8, 2007 This one also is available on CD. Anyway, they strongly prefer the original LP Why so high? I wouldn't be surprised if it hits 5Gs... Clifford is an expert Winning bid was $5,360 Quote
brownie Posted April 8, 2007 Report Posted April 8, 2007 (edited) Another Hank Mobley LP showing up! Condition does not seem as good as the one that hits more than 5Gs... Edited April 8, 2007 by brownie Quote
sidewinder Posted April 8, 2007 Report Posted April 8, 2007 Another Hank Mobley LP showing up! Condition does not seem as good as the one that hits more than 5Gs... For a so-called rarity of 500 presings there are a lot of these coming up at the moment on ebay. Is this like some sort of variation of baseball card trading? Quote

For a so-called rarity of 500 presings there are a lot of these coming up at the moment on ebay. Yeah, same old story...anyway this one looks pretty beat up. Quote

Clifford is an expert Winning bid was $5,360 Yup. I suggest the highest bidder to specify registered mail to Japan and insist on strong packaging. Nice guys at Atomic records, but they could easily send it regular in a standard bags unlimited mailer. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted April 8, 2007 Report Posted April 8, 2007 Another Hank Mobley LP showing up! Condition does not seem as good as the one that hits more than 5Gs... Yes, but his grading is very conservative. I've had good experiences with that seller "gentle-noise." Quote
brownie Posted April 13, 2007 Report Posted April 13, 2007 $1,480 did not meet the reserve on this Paul Gonsalves Boom Jackie Boom Chick A very expensive original these days Quote
michel1969 Posted April 13, 2007 Report Posted April 13, 2007 Here's the third impossible to find 1568 in one week. Quote

clifford_thornton Posted April 13, 2007 Report Posted April 13, 2007 Re: the Mobley 1568, 500 copies isn't that rare in eBay terms anyway. Quote
sidewinder Posted April 14, 2007 Report Posted April 14, 2007 (edited) Nor was the reserve met on Dusk Fire, at over $650! That would have to be a very good copy. Postscript - same copy seems to have gone for $900 on a 'buy it now'. Edited April 14, 2007 by sidewinder Quote
clifford_thornton Posted April 17, 2007 Report Posted April 17, 2007 Another Hank Mobley LP showing up! Condition does not seem as good as the one that hits more than 5Gs... Only hit $1227 - cheap! Quote
clifford_thornton Posted April 19, 2007 Report Posted April 19, 2007 Brotzmann Octett The highest I've seen for this title, even if it is the first pre-FMP pressing! I remember when BRO-2 used to go for only around $100 tops! Quote
