@Pim - INCREDIBLE haul. So many amazing LPs.  

 

 

[mjazzg]

@Pim that's practically a collection in itself, are there any LPs left in Japan?! 

I can't help but be intrigued by the Bob Cooper 

[Pim]

@mjazzg I am pretty sure I’ve had the last ones  thanks @HutchFan 

I almost never order anything in Europe anymore for the insane prices that were always on eBay and are now at Discogs as well. So I make a big order twice a year in Japan and save up money for those every month. I calculated and this order cost me 20 euros a piece including shipping etc. That’s very acceptable.

For example: the Sonny Rollins (VG+/VG+) cost 3 dollars…. Most of the Tyners: 5 dollars… Now hoping it will arrive in one piece of course. Fingers crossed! I always feel truly happy when they actually are delivered at my door.

Two great records, but poor description on discogs. The Sykes in particular is in very poor condition.

Poor grading, such a pain

Today's arrivals, hoping they're well graded

[Rabshakeh]

Some classics

[mjazzg]

Are they considered so, I had no idea.  that's good to hear. I just took a Discogs punt as they scratch a musical itch

[Rabshakeh]

The series is great. I don't know all of these specifically.

The seller has three others so these may be just the first instalment 

[T.D.]

[Rabshakeh]

Stan Levey – Grand Stan

Blue Mitchell – Blue's Moods

Both from Flashbacks on the Essex Road in London, which appears to have recently bought a large collection of bop stuff from. 50s-90s and is selling it off at pretty good prices. Worth checking out for any Londoners in here.

[mjazzg]

Thanks for the tip off. 

[Rabshakeh]

It's quite Steeplechasey but there's lots there. New up and down.

Nice!

I almost grabbed that Helen Merrill set.  Already regret that I didn't.

That's one of those places where if you have a lot of time and you know your labels to know what's what, you can make some worthy additions for under $5.00/disc. ESPECIALLY if your collection is fairly settled and you're just looking to fill in some holes. OR if your collection has a lot of holes and you're ok with older CD versions, cheap.

Yes.  That place can be dangerous -- from both a time and money point of view.

Daedalus books used to be like. Some other place too, I forget the name. But I see a lot of the same type stuff. Fortunately, I most of it now. But most is not all...Like Roy Eldridge, The Nifty Cat with Budd Johnson, did not have a legit CD on it and BAM there it was tonight in the Under $5 filter.

I was relieved that their comparable Modern Classical seemed pretty weak. Thank God!

It's a good way to sample artists around the edges at a minimal cost (such as Sal Mosca, Mike Melillo, Mike LeDonne, Scott Wendholdt,Sal Nistico on this latest order for me).  The # of jazz CD's (especially interesting ones) jumps up and down on the site, I think when they end up buying a big collection (which they've done a few times in the years I've followed along).  They were at 11,000+ jazz CD's a couple of months ago, now at 7700, and I remember them being around 3000 for a long time a few years ago.
