Bill W. I can almost guarantee that the VG+ “Speak No Evil” will go north of $500.

Jazz records. Speculative bubble, or investment grade?

If this copy of “Speak No Evil” sells with a price over $500 with multiple bidders, I’ll be listing my VG+ copy very soon.

I live in the same town as funkyousounds, and was friendly with him when he first got in the game about 17-18 years ago. He was young and working out of his bedroom in his parents’ house! He’s a very nice and genuine guy. At the time, he would only sell NM-level records on ebay, because he didn’t want to mess with people complaining about condition. So he had tons of “leftovers” to move. Thus opened a couple-year window where he would let me come over and pull stacks of VG and VG+ records for what we’d now consider bargain-basement prices. As his business boomed and the vinyl resurgence took hold, he wisely realized that even those VG- and G+ records were still worth big bucks, and that was it for me! Ha! But I owe him big. Thanks in part to him, I was able to amass a Jazz collection that I could never dream of being able to build today.

That J.R. Monterose, Blue Note 1536 lacks a frame cover and deep groove labels, a pretty high price for a later repress IMHO.

blasted jazz records are now selling at a premium. I’ll never understand it. Lather, rinse, repeat.
