Thanks for the replies.

Rudolf, I totally understand and appreciate that condition greatly impacts prices. But given that the vinyl on the record I linked to is listed at VG++ for side one and VG/VG+ for side two I just thought that a 5x price jump just seems strange. I feel like whoever purchased that one for $81 got a steal. The larger point I was trying to make is it seems there are a handful of sellers on ebay that just by virtue of their history command very high prices. It’s not right or wrong, just something I’ve noticed.

Katy and Geoff: Forgive me but other than posting another comment on this thread I am not exactly sure how to reach either of you. I’m always in the market to buy good jazz records.

Matt: quality is the name of the game. There is a marked difference in the quality of the vinyl.

I dont deal on e-bay but if there are any records you are searing for let me know as I may have it and you can tell me what you think it is worth and if we agree it is deal.

Hi I’m new to this board, but a long time collector. I use ebay when I can’t find records elsewhere, but I don’t understand the huge discrepency in prices. Take the above Miles Davis vol. 2. Sold for $393. Now compare it to this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/190841775208?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

Sold for $81. Surely the seller alone can’t account for the huge difference. Am I missing something here?

The Chet album in stereo is one of the worst original stereo pressings I have ever heard. Almost all of the horns except for Herbie Mann’s flute are heard out of the left channel. Evans’ piano is very soft, and is one of the few instruments heard out of the right channel. Definitely track down the mono pressing or use your mono switch for that album.
