Well, you see, 'vinyl collectors' are generally a pretty hardcore set of, to put it bluntly... loonies!
Even my old band's 70s vinyl LP is out there - for example....
(this copied off the 'net just a moment ago)...

Prog & Psych LUIGI ANADA BOYS : FEELING THE CEILING : CRIMINAL RECORDS (plain cover + insert) : UK : 1978 : M-/M- : £495 www.2ozofplastic.com/new_page_6.htm

... £495 for my old rock band's effort?!!!! ...and that's for a 'used' copy!
There was a pristine condition (never played) copy sold for £1620 a couple of years back.

Mad lot, them 'collectors'! - Over and out, Duncan McFarlane (who was once mad enough to be known as Luigi!!!)
