I was lucky enough to obtain the disc pictured for £9.99 at auction in clean undamaged E- condition. Nobody else placed a bid! (For 1926, Victor's sound recording is amazing).
@soultwinz As far as discogs, I don't put too much stock in what they have to say. The only time I reference discog is if I need information from a label that we don't have on this site. You are welcome to visit my profile page as my credentials. I don't really have any further comments to make here.
Mike ..it's just one crazy price.. there's lots of sales info available for this record..they too are facts... and the fact is in today's market I very much doubt you'd get nearly 400 quid for this record.. in mint or not ..you really should do a more general search before placing valuations and tbh.. for this particular site it's not really a good feature..leave that to discogs
The value placed on this record (yes, I am responsible), means that this record has attained this price before. That doesn't mean that if you find an E copy at an estate sale that you can expect to get rich. No matter how ridiculous it is, those are the facts.
indeed a proper mint copy of this would be pushed to sell for $100..and there is plenty of sales info available for lower condition copies going for far far less..
