his original press vinyls are just ridiculously high.guess years will come and they will still be unsold...

I typed in the year (1976) in the price column by mistake, which was re-formatted to $1976.99 by the computer code. Real price was $39.99 (sold a few days ago for). My used records expensive, but not $1000+ (yet!!)

A tune is really only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. In this case, in fairness to Ernie B I think that $39.99 is a reasonable price to be paid for it. I paid £45 for a Jackie Mitoo disc, played it once and put it in my collection. Six months later it occured to me that when I shuffle off this earth, my wife will either chuck my music collection in the bin or give it away.
