Rare Bird Nets $2,210. Yes, $2,210.
Nov 12, 2009 $1000 Records, 10-Inch LPs, Jazz Vinyl, Jazz Vinyl on eBay
Wow, there was a real bidding war for this one: Charlie Parker, Dial 203. This was a 10-inch pressing sold by Euclid Records. The record was listed in M- condition and the cover was VG++. What would you normally expect this to sell for? I’d have said $400, maybe $500. If you look at the Jazz Collector Price Guide the range is $300 to $500 depending on condition, with one previous copy selling for more than $700. The bidding for this one started getting intense between two buyers at somewhere north of $800 and it skyrocketed all the way to a final price of $2,210. Not bad. By contrast, Euclid also sold copies of the following 10-inch Dial records by Bird: Charlie Parker, Dial 207. This one
was listed in VG+ condition for the vinyl and VG++ for the cover. The price was $676. Quite steep considering the condition, but still within three figures. The other one was this: Charlie Parker, Mr. Saxophone, Dial 211. This was listed as M- for the vinyl and VG++ for the cover. The final price was $315.
