Yeah, I’ve noticed mid-level free jazz records going stratospheric – got completely taken down on a copy of Steve Lacy “The Kiss” last night, oddly – so either there’s one hell of an economic rebound that I didn’t notice or things are just in one of those feeding frenzy cycles.

As for that Trane listing, it was right next to a copy of Miles’ ESP and I assume the seller got lazy with copying and pasting.

There’s some interesting Sonny records on ebay right now. Even a sealed copy of Way Out West:

There seems to have been so much interest and activity in recent weeks in our beloved Jazz Record section of Ebay. There have been plenty of instances where I think i’m in with a shot (or normally would be), and the amount of bids and the pricing has just goes through the roof.

I’m a big Sonny fan too, and still have plenty of empty space to fill with Sonny records I don’t have, but I just seem to luck out on price time and time again.

I finally managed to pick up a very nice W50th copy of Saxophone Collossus though; but that was right place right time, and that doesn’t happen to me very much at all.
The exchange rate often kills the deal for me too at 1NZD = 0.79US plus freight at the same rate.
