What's the most overpriced record or CD you have seen. You know the type to make you baulk. Even worse you once had it and gave it away/got rid of it etc.

The worse I did was to give the first two radiohead singles (on vinyl) to an ex when we split. I picked up both for 99p in the new releases of my then local record shop. When I see the prices now..............

Ones I have been shocked at have been both on e-bay. the Japanese version of the Bodines album "Played" regulary goes for over £80-100 and how about for a Big Flame CD?

I have the Masterplan & Be Here Now boxsets by Oasis. Both are still sealed as they've never been played. Eil.com have the same records for £100 each. :shock:

I got in touch with them to see if they wanted to buy my copies. They only offered £30 & £25.

I once saw a 2 Tone single sell on ebay for £170 and it wasn't the Costello single either.

the only record i own that anyone would pay money for is the hope of the states black doolar bills in a little hessian sack
i dont know what its worth but surely more than the 2 quid i spent on it
only played it once and didnt like it
wish i had never opened it as it would be worth more i suppose

the Garbage singles off pf the first album always used to be pretty pricey.

always wanted a cd copy of the los banditos part of the beta band three eps on cd single but never seen it, don't think its that rare though.

Is an original of stevie wonders songs in the key of life from holland with 3 pieces of vinyl worth anything?
