NY, AB, RVG. I looked at the bidding history. When an outlier price comes up for an LP, sometimes the buyer entered a very high max bid to be sure of winning, and then other bidders drove up the final value. I don’t think that happened in this sale. The winning bidder seems to have topped out at $500 two days before closing. Then jumped back in near the end with a higher max bid. The winner wanted this LP. Another copy sold through Ebay UK on 11/21, for the equivalent of $750. Described as VG+/VG+ with intact seams. A rising tide lifts all ships as they say.

That is a very generous view of the over grading by Tefteller.
PS that is not a criticism of your comments.

Not Jazz, but surely of some interest to us all as record collectors: The MFT seller is offering this Beatles Sgt. pepper’s record (the rarest of all?) for $219K. He might have done with better pics, but whatevs.

Luckily I didn’t pay much for the LP ; I have avoided the MFT seller since then.
Buyer beware.

No R on top of the white fan. There is a rarer first pressing that may interest some, which has a deep groove. It sold for ~1,500 from uk vinyl last year.

Thanks for finding the typo. I will fix it, for the record, so when people look back in the Jazz Collector Library years from now, they will have an explanation for your note.
