Regarding the AT’s Delight the 877 USD is not exactly bargain IMO. Even if it has sold for more before it is a very high price that is within the error margin for fluctuation. Just because a record sold for 3000 USD once it will not automatically sell for the same time and time again.

Personally I find these price increases the last 10 years very sad. Although I have my fair share of OG’s I see a lot of the records I want just disappear into the sunset – far out of reach….not fun at all.

Justin, after the very high sale one of the two high bidders are off the market already having the LP…..maybe…..if it’s not a dealer like Disk Union and such.

I think it’s more of a case of only a handful of people willing to pay a certain price for a record and then the remaining people that want it are not willing to pay nearly as much.

Something I’ve noticed over the years, that I haven’t seen discussed much, is when an album hits a new high price, subsequent sales fall short of the that high. It’s as if a bunch of collectors note the new price and decide that item is now beyond what they want to pay and look for other things. Doesn’t always happen, of course, but I’ve noticed it enough to wonder if there’s some truth to this idea.

“an auction that ends at 4am on a thursday isn’t going to get the same band as one that ends at 2pm on saturday”

With a worldwide audience that doesn’t really have any bearing, especially since most serious bidders use sniping services.

The seller of the A.T. didn’t get super high prices, except for the Dorham. Probably something to do with presentation, because the condition seemed ok.

people conduct extensive research on the best times to have auctions end, the best ways to take pictures, which words work best in descriptions. there are whole reddit communities for it. i’m sure the record world could benefit. an auction that ends at 4am on a thursday isn’t going to get the same band as one that ends at 2pm on saturday, for example.
