I rather like it, I’d not pay £41k though.

I used to own the Mötorhead, I bought it when it came out as a school kid, but it went in a purge. I’ve had the turquoise Led Zep and blue triangle Floyd pass through. These lists are always fascinating as there is always stuff I’ve never even heard of and may miss in a £1 bin!
 
And I baulk at spending more than 30€ on any album in any format ...

41K will get you one hell of a turntable, cartridge and phono stage e.g. the big AMG tt and arm and a DS Audio cart/phono stage set.
 
I quite like it too - though it does sound a little bit like something Spymania might have put out 20 years earlier.

Has anyone discovered who the buyer was and why?
 
I’ve got this one :) Happy to let it go for $1,950 as I only paid £35 for it :cool::D

What's everyone else's highest value record according to Discogs maximum sold price?

Mine's Oasis's triple Live LP Familiar to Millions at £400 to £500. I'm sorely tempted at that to be honest as it's a bit rubbish and was never bought thinking it would be worth more than its original price. Having said that 2 of my inners have always been slit by the heavyweight razor sharp vinyl edge. I can't be the only one. Guess that will knock a hundred or two off.
 
Is that the ordinary original issue Motorhead? How is that worth $1800? Think I'll be selling mine if it fetches a tenth of that. Assuming I still have it and can find it.

Almost certainly the Nimbus Supercut of Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here which is on at £1063, though I’ve seen it make more on eBay, over £1500 on rare occasions (especially if sealed, which mine isn’t). I’ve some other stuff I view as far rarer, but that one carries a real audiophile price tag! I’ve a lot of audiophile vinyl (DCC, Classic Records, Alto etc) and whilst it’s not in that league it has pretty much all increased very substantially on its purchase price. Way better than keeping the cash in the bank! I’ve a few other things around £400-500 on a good day, translucent red Unknown Pleasures, a nice clean complete Electric Warrior etc.

The first pressing had a black/silver cover, only 600 of them, hence the rarity. The normal copy plus the white vinyl reissue are in the £50-60 range.

That I think is my most valuable as well. Paid £6 new, plus the same for some of the others, KOB etc. when Practical HiFi were selling them. The others on the whole have gone up in value as well, but not nothing like WYWH.

The Nimbus Sgt Peppers is worth shedloads, more than WYWH IIRC, Band On The run about half a shed-load. I have neither, my stash is WYWH, KOB, Joni’s Hissing and Weather Report’s Mysterious Traveller. I’ve had many pass through over the years and made decent money out if some, but those are the only ones I have currently. I’ve not paid more than a tenner for any of them. They are very good, but nothing is worth that sort of cash IMO unless it is really of historic value (e.g. fully signed first press of KoB, signed Hendrix, Doors, Joy Division albums etc). I do have some nice signed stuff, e.g. fully signed Modern Jazz Quartet Pyramid 1st press, quite a lot of random indie stuff, and I like buying signed limited editions from Bandcamp etc (got a fair bit of current jazz etc). I’ve a fully signed 1st Smiths album, but Morrissey is devaluing that one by the minute!
 
The only copy of the Wu-Tang Clan's album Once Upon a Time in Shaolin was sold for $2m (£1.4m) in 2015 to businessman Martin Shkreli, who was later jailed for fraud.

Ringo Starr's personal copy of the Beatles' The White Album, numbered No.0000001, sold at an auction for $790,000 (£576,500) that same year.

I don't have either of those unfortunately and I don't check the prices, but in addition to to the two I mentioned from memory I have Joan Armatrading Eponymous, Supertramp Breakfast in America, Barbirolli English String Music, Ricky Lee Jones Eponymous and Jackson Browne Running on Empty.

Same. But mine is mint as I've never played it.

Edit: Although actually I've just checked, this has gone up considerably since the last time I looked

The Tuss - Rushup Edge - median £208 max £526.

Bonkers really because everyone twigged it was Aphex at the time so it must have sold in decent quantities.
 
I had a brand new, unplayed copy of 'Credo' by the Human League. Bought on a whim when it popped up for £8.99 at Amazon and filed on the shelf. Putting stuff into Discogs and discovered it had sold for upwards of £400 at the time. Sold mine for £399 within a day. Current highest sale is nearly £500. God, I wish I'd bought a few copies.....:mad:
