My son loves OG He-Man so collecting the reissues of toys I had in the early 80's with him is super fun.

A majority of these are Christmas gifts. The first three Brazilian records are reissues, of course. I'm fortunate to have friends who are on my same wavelength. "Alan Parsons Project" is their "debut"

I keep getting burned (or did, before I had to take an extended break from buying records) by shoddy reissues of long time wants that are out of my budget.

From the US, the CARIBBEAN ISLANDS, the AFRICAN CONTINENT and EUROPE. Originals, recent releases and (out of print) reissues.

Dollar Bin finds from the weekend. No raers but I don't mind finding clean copies of decent records for a dollar. The Willie Colon and Arena are reissues. Normally I don't mess with reissues but I cou

I think it's a mixture of supply, demand, demographics, and maybe rising costs due to the Apollo Masters fire?  I just paid $60+ on a couple Japanese city pop reissues, recently.  The pressing and pac
