In this video, I’m sharing what I paid for various records in my collection, but rather than adding the music like they do on TikTok, it’s the long form.

Well, the one I've paid the most for my rather small collection was a signed copy of When Rivers Meet's first album. They're an electric blues act from Britain and I think they are going places. I paid $77 CAD for it.

The most I paid was $250 an overall VG++ copy of Sub Pop 200. It has never been repressed and I figured being PNW transplant in IllInois that I would never see it again in the Midwest. That era just means too much to me since I was on the periphery of some of it in the early 90s.
