The most I have ever paid for an album is $40 for the Butthole Surfers' DOUBLE LIVE with the insert booklet stil in there and in good condition.
The Lickers hitting those dusty bins is crazy. I will browse through those but it is ussually cursory. I too prefer the $5-$10 used bins. The Jazz albums cost some more though.
I am not interested in first pressings and such as long as the music sounds great. I do love to find good quality originals, but I reserve that for my jazz collection. I found a pristine copy of Brubeck's Take 5 original pressing. after not buying maybe 10-14 lesser quality copie sof that album over the course of 10 years. I have Ella Fitz' Clap Hands Here Comes Charlie first pressing in perfect condition too.
I guess for me even though I love the rock more, I want my jazz original!
I love 180-200gram re-issues. LOVE EM.
