The "Collectible CDs Left on the Shelves - Help SHFites Out!" Thread

And I appreciate someone bringing this thread back from the dead! I forgot it existed - and I started it!

 

All the RCA Bowies are good to have, if just for collector's purposes!

"Changesone" is one of the more common ones, though - along with "Ziggy" and the two circa 1983 compilations, it's not that hard to find, so I understand mmars being picky!

I saw this Radiohead boxset sealed for $29.99 at the CD Shop on Ave. U and E.26th street in Brooklyn;

Hey- on Audiogon there is an Elvis 24 Karat Hits DCC with slipcover $40(not mine)

 

For King Crimson fans in Providence and southeastern Massachusetts...

I was in 2 Newbury Comics today. At Providence Place there must have been about 20 live archive cd's. At North Dartmouth, there must have been 7 or 8 40th Anniversary sets.

 

Horizon Records in Greenville, SC has several Bear Family boxed sets for $59.99. I know they had Johnny Cash for sure.

 

Just visited the Buy Backs in Beavercreek, Ohio.
They usually don't have much, but some guy just sold his entire CD collection.
I saw many deluxe editions. Lots of box sets too.
There must have been at least 200 new items.
I didn't find anything this trip, but they still have more to put out.

They just put out a bunch of Beach Boys 2fers.

I'm happy this thread still lives - even if I forget about it and never post my own finds!

 

Saw these on the shelf at Dearborn Music (Dearborn, MI) earlier today:
Laurie Anderson
Mister Heartbreak WG Target smooth case
Home Of The Brave Japan/Victor

Van Halen
Diver Down non-target WG pressing

All were under $7 plus there is a 20% off sale going on there.

 

She Said Boom! on College St. in Toronto has a Rubber Soul original stereo mix on Disque Amerique for $7.99.

 

I should say pressed by Disque Amerique, on the Parlophone/EMI label.

 

Still there!

 

Still there!

 

Don't know if it's the same copy but now there's a copy at their other store on Roncesvalles Ave.
Also not a CD but I saw a copy of the wide stereo Beatlemania! with the Beatles at Pandemonium on Dundas St. W. $25. This is only the 3rd copy I've seen including the one I own. Most have narrow stereo on side 2.

 

Greetings from the SF Bay Area, East Bay specifically!
Pegasus Used Book store on Solano in Berkeley sells used CD's. Apparently someone unloaded a large John Coltrane collection including numerous jewel case versions of Impulse titles, and some digipak versions too, as well as some Atlantic titles (30 or so titles total). The discs are mostly mint/mint minus, BUT, they're asking friggin' top dollar (up to $9 or so, not including tax). Still, if one figures $5 plus $4 shipping per title on Discogs, with variable accuracy in grading, one can convince one's self to buy a few and take 'em home tonight . There are many other misc. OJC titles (incl. Miles) also. I asked for a volume discount and heard crickets. If you buy something, be sure to ask for your coupon that entitles you to 20% off on one item NEXT month. Happy Hunting!

 

There's a Disque Amerique Help! CD (that's the '87 CD with the original '65 stereo mix) at Neurotica Records on Manning Avenue, just south of College in Toronto. Only $5.95.

Looks like I need to plan a trip up north at some point! I already paid $30 USD for the Disque Amerique Rubber Soul and refuse to pay a Discogs seller $90 for Help!.

 

Man - I forgot I ever started this thread!

 

Oldtimers disease Colin?

 

I think this thread has more posts of you saying you forgot you started it than actual on-topic content!

 

Probably!

But it's a well-intentioned thread, even if I forgot about it!

 

Maybe, but it's amazing how prices for some discs have dropped. Is $7 for a non-target WG Diver Down such a good deal? I see them online for less than £2 (in fact I bought one for about £1.50 - just curious about the pressing; the seller had a whole bunch of early VH discs).
