I see a lot of stuff like that with outrageous prices. Do the die hard physical CD buyers/collectors really pay those sort of prices? I find it unbelievable.

I've just realized that price is for the 2016 reissue on the official DDR website.

It's not even an original 1990 copy. I'm even more gobsmacked. 

I could not give two shits about owning the actual physical disc. For me it's all about the music.

Shane Martin from DDR posts here occasionally. I would love to know if these sort of prices are paid regularly. 

Shane?

Also, a lot of you guys have been on this site for many years trading, collecting and interacting with some of the older, no longer active, hard core traders/collectors. I can't imagine too many other collectors as obsessed or fanatical than past members of this forum.

Have any of you or any one from here that you know of, ever paid anything close to that for a disc?

That Syre CD was remastered? I couldnt tell it had been mastered to begin with, horribly quiet and very low db's, I sold my original Syre on ebay for $50, bought a new one for 25, and with that mastering job I wouldnt pay more then that for it, the most I ever paid was 80 fpr a Eddie Money Wheres The Party CD, I sold a American Angel and Noize Toys cd for 100,

I'm sure that price is an error/glitch.  I shop DDR's site at least once a month and I thought I've seen that title listed for 19.99 not long ago.  So it would be interesting to hear from Shane to clarify things.  That would be beyond crazy if it is the correct asking price, lol.  As was mentioned, even if brand new/sealed condition I'd have to believe the original wouldn't go for much more than $50

I thought it might be an error also. Although, I see prices like that all the time on the main site homepage. 

Even if this particular case was an error, those prices do exist. Crazy shit.

yeah, I've read/heard of some pretty outrageous sale prices for hard to find indie releases, it is crazy, I'm a collector myself and prefer to have physical copies, early versions, in good condition and all that but I don't recall ever spending more than about $40 on a cd, if it's that rare and expensive I'm more than happy to have it on cd-r and print up artwork myself

I asked him about something on FB and he said he wasn't with the label anymore.

      Tell Which Bands I Should Listen To!

      By CureTheSane · Posted

      Some of these I have touched on in the past, but not found myself desperate to explore more. For instance 8 have hardline eclipse and also II. But that's it  Same with a few others on the list, I may have an album. So I guess I really want another Tyketto where the whole catalogue is great. If any on the list fit that bill. In the past I tried out Alfo November. The one with a brick wall in it?, Lillian Axe and a Loudness. Maybe I need to try them again. I purposefully left some off, like Vibbie Vincent Invasion because of the screechy vocals. I guess I always put Mark Free in that group as well.

      Well, the first two "Giant" albums are quintessential, as is the "Hardline" debut. Akdo Nova's "Blood on the Bricks" is one of my all time favourites, Lizzy Borden is awesome as is the Mark/Marcie Free fronted "King Kobra".

      Tell Which Bands I Should Listen To!

      By CureTheSane · Posted

      So some may remember that Tyketto toured recently and aside from Forever Young, I never delved into this band. So I did, so I'd know the songs in concert and was blown away. A great band with an awesome catalog that I had missed out on. To be fair, in the 80's it was a lot harder to access and find out about a lot of the more fringe bands, that's my excuse anyway. So I now am faced with digging deeper into some other bands I've overlooked. Some of these I gave a go, and wasn't really impressed, but now I'm starting fresh with an open mind. So below is a list of bands I have eitehr never bothered with, or never really gave a proper go. Lizzy Borden is on the list and I have done a bit of their stuff and like it a lot, so I will definately dig deeper into them (I've got some older stuff and some newer stuff, but have skipped quite a few albums) But the others, fire away, tell me which bands have killer material that I'll froth and how stppid I've been to skip them. Aldo Nova Badlands Baby Tango Baton Rouge Black N Blue Britney Fox BulletBoys DAD Giant Hanoi Rocks Hardline Jetboy King Kobra Kingdom Come Lillian Axe Lizzy Borden Loudness Love Hate Quireboys Saigon Kick Santa Cruz Shotgun Messiah SleezeBeez SouthGang Tiger Tailz TNT Vain White Tiger
