jacknife Posted March 20, 2004 Report Posted March 20, 2004 Jacknife, do you think you'll get more than the last guy did? Hope so but kind of doubt it, I'll be crying in my beer if it goes for less than $100...fingers crossed! I know that Knife is retrenching his collection, but selling his Roland Kirk box? Ya, I know it's shameful but I made cd-r's of it and that's what I listen to. The box set just sits on my shelf taking up valuable space. I guess I'll have to make a second backup copy before this sells incase the first cd-r's get damaged or lost. No doubt that this is a awesome set that I don't want to be without just don't need the original box on the shelf. Quote
dave9199 Posted March 21, 2004 Author Report Posted March 21, 2004 (edited) Seeing how much the last one went for, I don't think you'll have to worry jacknife. Besides after one day it's already at $13.61. Edited March 21, 2004 by dave9199 Quote
dave9199 Posted March 24, 2004 Author Report Posted March 24, 2004 $51.00, Evan you still hanging in there? I bet this will jump up a bit more. I hope so, it makes me feel foolish paying what I payed, but in the long run, it was worth it. I've listened to half of it and it's all great! My set is in good condition too. Quote
John B Posted March 24, 2004 Report Posted March 24, 2004 $51.00, Evan you still hanging in there? I bet this will jump up a bit more. I hope so, it makes me feel foolish paying what I payed, but in the long run, it was worth it. I've listened to half of it and it's all great! My set is in good condition too. The $51 bid would be me, so I am hoping it doesn't jump too much more! I should have picked up this set years ago but still haven't heard most of the music it contains. Quote
RDK Posted March 24, 2004 Report Posted March 24, 2004 When did this thing become so hard to find? I used to see cheap copies everywhere. It still seems high to me, but if anyone's interested I noticed that Amoeba has a couple of used copies at around $130 each. Quote
John B Posted March 24, 2004 Report Posted March 24, 2004 I'm out. Good luck on getting a high return on this one jacknife! Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted March 24, 2004 Report Posted March 24, 2004 Audio-samples of every track from this set can be found: HERE (See my other thread for any discussion about the back-door way into the AMG, with sound-samples.) Quote
RDK Posted March 24, 2004 Report Posted March 24, 2004 So who wants to compile a CDR of 30-second audio-samples of this box set? I bet we could fit it all on one disc... Sort of a "Hooked on Roland Kirk" Quote
dave9199 Posted March 24, 2004 Author Report Posted March 24, 2004 Don't worry jacknife. It's at $71.00 now & I think the guy who bid that was the same guy trying to get the last set that was there a week ago. Evan, are you going to call or bluff? Quote
jacknife Posted March 24, 2004 Report Posted March 24, 2004 I'm out. Good luck on getting a high return on this one jacknife! So Soon? Thanks though. Quote
connoisseur series500 Posted March 25, 2004 Report Posted March 25, 2004 I'm out. Good luck on getting a high return on this one jacknife! You won't go above $71? I bought mine for $100 on ebay. I don't think it's possible to get it much cheaper than that, though the "Buy-it-now" was $90 or something like that. I think I paid around $96 and it came to a little over $100 with shipping costs. Jacknife won't care too much if it goes for $100. He just sold Lee Morgan, "Rajah" for $75.00 on a buy it now. (You lucky rascal! ) Right Knife? Quote
John B Posted March 25, 2004 Report Posted March 25, 2004 I'm out. Good luck on getting a high return on this one jacknife! You won't go above $71? I will, just not right now. As much as I would like to have this set I found it hard to justify spending the money after all of my recent purchases were added up. Quote
dave9199 Posted March 26, 2004 Author Report Posted March 26, 2004 HOLY SHIT!!!! It's now up to $152.51, the exact same price as the last one!!!! Are you satisfied with that Jacknife? Evan, are you still alive? Quote
jacknife Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 HOLY SHIT!!!!  It's now up to $152.51 Now $170.52, I don't understand why this is going for so much now but hey I'm not complaining! Quote
Bright Moments Posted March 26, 2004 Report Posted March 26, 2004 i'm out i'll just have to wait a little longer Quote
dave9199 Posted March 27, 2004 Author Report Posted March 27, 2004 Aahhh, it makes me feel not so much of a sucker. C'mon Evan go $190!!! Make the other guy pay for it! (Jacknife, I get a cut of that if Evan takes the bait, right?) Quote
Bright Moments Posted March 27, 2004 Report Posted March 27, 2004 stick a fork in me, i'm done. Quote
jacknife Posted March 27, 2004 Report Posted March 27, 2004 stick a fork in me, i'm done Thanks Evan for at least bidding it up, sooner or later you should be able to find this box for much cheaper. Dave...no commission for you, I'm a greedy SOB....second thought, Evan keep bidding...this set is well worth thousands! Quote
dave9199 Posted March 27, 2004 Author Report Posted March 27, 2004 (edited) Less than 2 hours to go and it's $177.52. This is better than TV, I can't stop checking in. We'll have to keep this thread up every time someone sells this box to see how much they go for. If this goes for more than I bought it for, I may have to soil myself.

dave9199 Posted March 27, 2004 Author Report Posted March 27, 2004 Wow, congrats jacknife! $177.52; $25 higher than the last one. Quote
jacknife Posted March 27, 2004 Report Posted March 27, 2004 (edited) Wow, congrats jacknife! Thanks Dave. And instant payment from the buyer, can't beat that! Looks like it's time to place a Mosaic order Edited March 27, 2004 by jacknife Quote
dave9199 Posted May 12, 2004 Author Report Posted May 12, 2004 Well, there's another Mercury box on ebay Evan...I mean, Bright Moments. Quote
