Zion Dub (Carl's) for 25 euros, maybe in 2005... I thought I overpaid because it's kind of short, but turns out it's pretty rare. Was going for like $500 a few years ago
Was so hyped I poasted about it here at the time.
10$ Buy Now some time ago, never seen this one before as well as again ever since.
Came in a $50 ebay lot of 25 chud pieces and another Warhol 45.
Music wise these would have to be my favorites:
Clean copy for $30 on Discogs
and a nice copy of this for $40 on Gemm
sweet kala
The one that comes to mind is this one:
Got a dg og in ex shape a while back for 0 $$. Dude listed it without knowing anything about the record, offered no specifics. I won it for 30$, thinking to myself what a score if it's an og!!! I waited and waited, nothing came, feared the guy had gotten cold feet realizing what he had. Then he sent me an e-mail saying that by accident he'd mailed it to someone else and was refunding me my $, grudgingly I gave him the benifit of the doubt and forgot all about it. 2 months later the LP arrived in the mail free of charge with a note explaining that the LP had been returned to the seller and he was sending it on to me. :beerbang:
What dreams are made of!
So many over the years. Multiple copies of the Tortilla Factory S/T LP, the SOL LP on GCP for $8, the rare Menique LP in a $10 salsa LP lot, walias band for $3, Los Silvertones on RCA for $30, etc.
Like new with brand new Ortofon dj cart $155 BIN with free shipping, might have been listed a full 20 minutes.
Dude didn't ship correctly, so it arrived with scratched dust cover caused by platter.
Ended up getting full insurance back somehow,
then later sold the cart for $60.
So in the end it's like I was paid $60 to have a brand new 1200.
peace, stein. . .
There are some sellers at Mercado Livre that know nothing about what they have for sale, so some times I grab some nice stuff for cheap, like these 3 LPs.
US$20
US$30
US$30
Man, I never saw any of those.

I knew about Apolo 11 and Bruno Solis' albums, but never saw any of them for sale.
Pra quem sabe das coisas LP is the "easier" one to find. I found 3 copies, because it was totally under the radar.
man, all I ever see on Mercado Livre are the sellers who know nothing about what they're selling and charge $300 for a $10 record...
Yeah, this is the case for 99% of the sellers, but a few of them sleep on what they have and price their stuff cheap.
The Apolo 11 I bought from a seller/store from Porto Alegre that prices their records according to the market prices.
I couldn't believe when I found it and the price was R$40. :holygrail:
