Drama goes for £25-40 on eBay. I have that.

I have quite a few rare/expensive bits.

Thoughts of Phutura on Axis (100 copies)
Alarms remixes on Axis (100 copies)
Ken Ishii remixes on Axis (100 copies)

all of which go for £80-150

Also -

Universal Indicator Green/Red/Blue/Yellow

All the original Caustic Window EPs (no longer have the popping candy from the 3rd one though...threw it away after it congealed).

Original pressing of Analogue Bubblebath 3 in the brown paper bag

Analogue Bubblebath 2 on Rabbit City (and in fact almost every other Aphex release pre-96).

Elecktroids - "Elektroworld" on Warp (£40-60)

Drexciya 3 on pink vinyl

S.I.D. # 6

3 or 4 Spiral Tribe bits

Objets D'Art on New Electronica

Most of these (except the Elecktroids and Objets D'Art which I got for £37 each and the SID which I got for about £20) I bought new for normal prices.


Boboagogo - Digital Tsunami is still easily available new.

I have a totally mint copy of the Beatles White Album on vinyl that I have been told is worth a fair wedge of money, although I have never looked into it - it was given to me on condition I never sell it.

As far as techno goes, I once owned a copy of the original pressing of Jaguar, but it was stolen along with a number of other great tunes. I don't even know if it was worth anything more than what I paid (£10), but the thing that really pissed me off about it is some asshole smackhead probably sold it for 50p.

I can't say I'm really a beatles fan myself, the record came with a huge chunk of old 60's/70's stuff that was given to me.

My friend has that black sleeve original copy of Blue Monday, and he was asking me if I had any idea what it was worth just two nights ago. He got it off Ebay for £5, then realized it was the real deal original pressing.

Kat Moda is one of the most commonly owned techno records there is, it's worth about £2 second hand and can be bought new at HMV - hardly rare or expensive. the alarms listed above is the white label only 1200 copies issue of the Ben Sims remixes on Axis.

regarding the White Album - there are many different pressings and some are worth hundreds of £££, others worth £10. It really depends on exactly what you have and to determine that you'd have to get it checked and valued by a pro.

I dont know what its worth, or how rare it is, but I imagine its hard to come by. I got a copy of +8PR01. Its got 4 tracks on it: F.U.S.E. "F.U.", Texas Audio "Assassin", and Groove Sector "No Restrictions" and "Release the Energy". Its in mint condition too. It seems to have one side as a +8 side, the other as Hi-Bias Records, whom I've never heard of. Anyone tell me about how rare this is?

It's hard to tell from the notes if they mean it was limited to 100 copies, or if they mean 100 copies were a 1-sided release. Either way I'd guess you've got yourself a rarity there - it doesn't show up on Gemm or Musicstack.

hahah i own magneze and user 2 .. but they can be found really easily ehre for a regular record price =))

i could prostitute myself to get the drama ep and the alarms rmx

the the rare records i own..

laurent garnier - crispy bacon (mills mix) (500 ltd) .. well that shouldnt count, that was repressed on a compilation
blueprint 4 (told to be 250 ltd but im not sure)
laurent garnier - club traxx vol 2 (500)
ben sims - hardgroove project (oh, it got repressed !)
..

all that sounds gay compared to a mate in the city who has all the f communication issued since the beggining, the drama ep (of course) but also axis 3 (inner sanctum)
last week he showed me some original green velvet pressings on releif... green coloured inyl of "flash" , followed by the 2LP green coloured "flash remixes" (inclu dj sneak, dj rush etc)
and i guess he has 100 more records taht can sell over £50 .. ****ing crazy ! =)

alot of what is perceived as being rare or worth summit is only worth what people are willing to pay for it. Much of the Detroit back catalogue is still in press so has a "new price " value. But saying this early Transmat pressings are worth more than the re-pressings but only to Trainspotters who must have the original :P

otherwise whitelabels would be more expansive then final reelase =)
