Sold most of mine due to financial problems.... ![Cry]()
I did the same thing with my Elvis collection. Sold most of my EP's for food money back in the early 70's. Can't imagine what they're worth now. Oh well, ya gotta eat.
I know how you feel, OSD. This is copied from my other board (in a revised form):
I must be the only person anywhere who has actually trodden on Pet Sounds while it was playing! The record player was standing on the floor at the time. This unfortunate occurrence paved the way for the dreaded "Cat Food Incident".
It was late 1972 and I was supposed to be looking after this bloke's house in London, watering his three expensive plants (ten quid each----in 1972!), feeding his cats and other stuff.
Time went by... A friend of mine wrecked the state-of-the-art stereo system (hence the makeshift solution on the floor), the plants started turning a glorious golden brown and the cats were getting scrawnier and more discontented by the day. Not having any money to buy cat food (I was unemployed at the time) and spurred on by the enormous scratch on side one of Pet Sounds, I bundled all my pop LPs (Beefhearts, Zappas, Velvets plus a host of wonderful and now more or less unobtainable mono stuff) into a box and sold the lot (40 albums!) at a local market stall for a measly 14 quid!
