ZenLunatic Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 I am trying to complete my collection of Wilco Vinyls. I have YHF, AGIB, and SBS. I paid about $30 for each of them at the Wilco store and seem readily available. Searching for anything else out there by Wilco. Does anybody know internet stores that sell them? What are the going price for the albums? I know they are out there, especially on ebay, but would like to find the cheapest place. Mostly I would an idea of how rare and hard to find they are. Any special vinyls out there? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Left Arm Tan Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 i found mermaid ave. at a record shop in chicago. i think on clark and wrightwood. maybe 5 years ago. have you tried just hitting up some record shops? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thejokeexplained Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 Good luck with your hunt. It took me 6 years to collect them all. Quality copies of "Summerteeth", "AM" and "All Over the Place" will be your challenge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ZenLunatic Posted October 31, 2007 Author Share Posted October 31, 2007 Thanks for all the info. Damn the prices. Being There will be my next purchase. Since they released 180gram, its available for about $30 now without shipping. AM is going for $150 and Summerteeth for $375, is this right? My god, cant afford that. I think I will stay away from those. I hope they rerelease those on 180grams too, so I can get them. Dont know of any record stores near me. Record Breakers was near but moved to the city.

Flea Markets - but you knew that probably. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ZenLunatic Posted October 31, 2007 Author Share Posted October 31, 2007 >um... what is this? http://www.audiophileusa.com/item.cfm?reco...;c=1&kw=Pop -justin I always wondered where "Don't You Honey Me" came from. Seems rare cause I cant find it selling anywhere and assume its way over $100 anyways. Would be nice to have and show off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

froggie Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 i found the first Mermaid avenue at a used record store for only $10. pretty good condition too considering 6 years after release Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ZenLunatic Posted November 1, 2007 Author Share Posted November 1, 2007 So I just ordered a new Being There 180g on vinyl. I called them to check on the status and they told me most likely they will be able to get it but no guarantees cause its not in stock for them and it is out of print now. So I hope I get it. Dont wanna pay ebay prices. Also got JIMI HENDRIX - RAINBOW CONCERT Early and Late on 180g too for $15 each. Nice price. I thought I would slurge alittle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HighFives Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 being there isn't too much on ebay really. I think you could get it for less than 20 w/ shipping Quote Link to post Share on other sites
adamt82 Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Fow whatever reason, any 180 gram vinyl I buy skips a lot. It is so anoying. Don't have any Wilco vinyl, but had to say something with all the chatting about 180 gram. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't have any Wilco vinyl, but had to say something with all the chatting about 180 gram. Skips? Something must be wrong with your turntable. Mine plays 180 and normal just fine. I like the 180grams, plus now they are rereleasing alot of classic albums so you get the old albums brand new and better than ever. I just wished they were cheaper, but seems like its all very limited runs, so it runs the cost up. I do see also there is 200grams and dont see paying extra for that versus 180 grams.

crusoli Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 375$ for Summerteeth? I guess I would even consider to sell my copy for that amount...Got it for 20$ on Ebay about a year ago. Best buy I ever made. Does anyone know if theres a vinyl version of Kicking Television? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BurningTaco Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Does anyone know if theres a vinyl version of Kicking Television? I don't think it was released on vinyl. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Best buy I ever made. Does anyone know if theres a vinyl version of Kicking Television? If you got it for 20 bucks on ebay a year ago it had to be listed with a typo or it was so trashed you can't listen to it. I have had it in my e-bay search feature for the past three years and i have never seen it go for less than $75 and that was a less than stellar copy. Also Kicking Television has never been released on vinyl. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
crusoli Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 It was a "buy-it-now" offer and it was on German Ebay not US one. Was still sealed. Couldn't really believe it myself even when I had it in my hand. :-) But I guess I won't get that lucky with the A.M. vinyl. Still missing that one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Man you must live a charmed life! you may find AM for a good price. that was one of the easier ones for me in my search. my advise... stay patient and search for typeos like AM or A.M-AM.

redstripe Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 my advice, make so much money at your day job that the price of vinyl doesn't matter.if your day job doesnt have that potential sell crack. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Smokestack Joe Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 the day i got AM and Summerteeth on vinyl were happy days, now when they are reissued for 75% less than i paid for those vinyls, bummed Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If taken care of original's will always hold their value. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
