and you will definitely see more than that back once you sell it.

hell, i had a bunch of those 10" revelation can suck it boots, and each one sold for over $50 on ebay and that was back in 99.

Have you ever spent that kind of money on one single record? Oh and as a side note "drunk at the YOT reunion" is a rad ass tune


No... not on a single record. The most I spent was on the LAST RIGHTS Hitler sleeve 7" and that was just over $200.

Well... actually... I bought a JUDGE Chung King for $1000, BUT the only reason I bought it was because I know I can resell it for more with NO problem. Im just holding on to it until I decide to sell it. I didnt buy it to keep or because I wanted to collect it. Totally for resale value.


Is your collection insured? If not I would look into it for sure.

i looked into it a little bit, and most of what i've heard is that it's hard to insure a collection as whole. if you want to insure all of your records beyond whatever your existing home owners or renters insurance covers, you have to insure each item individually.

how much you figure the black version on wishingwell would sell for? cause i got a mortgage to pay!


D, what color is the cover? Blue with red lettering? Or Black with yellow? Blue one is 1st press which usually only sells for like $25, maybe a little more if you're lucky.
The black and yellow is 2nd press which is rarer. I've seen this go for $50-75. So either way, you're no paying any bills with this record.

The real gems are the red and blue colored vinyl. $500+ is pretty much the rate for these. Some day I WILL own one of these. Its been at the top of my want list for over 15 years now...

Pressing info:

Break Down The Walls 12" - Wishingwell Records
#4 - 1987
1st Press -
Black Vinyl
150 - Blue Vinyl
150 - Red Vinyl
150 is a approx. count. 100 of each of the colors were given to the band
to sell but before they got a chance, everything was stolen from their van what
parked near CBGB's before a show. Assuming that the thieves were not hardcore
fans and just wanted the equipment. The Records were probably destroyed, Wishingwelll
sold the rest to stores local to Orange County, CA. The difficulty of finding
either color of this record can be attributed to the 66% loss rate. Another
fairly distressing yet humorous twist to the plot is that the owner of one of
the stores that got a number of the remaining color vinyl copies, took a dozen
or so red ones home and nailed, yes nailed, them to his back porch and watched
them curl up over time. There are yellow and black sleeves for this as well..

2nd Press -
Yellow and Black sleeves. It's not known if this is not the official press
or not since it is so difficult to find.

mine is blue with red lettering. oh well.

PAINT MY HOUSE, RAY CAPPO, YA BITCH!

so of the first pressing, there are roughly only 50 of each color? wow. i've never seen a blue vinyl version, or this second pressing for that matter.

I remember selling a copy of Y.O.T.'s first 7" to a guy for about $800 a few years back. Dude was desperate to have it.

http://cgi.ebay.com/TURNING-POINT-s-t-7-GOLD-VINYL-oRiGiNaL-...

even though this is like the third pressing, there are only 100 with the silver labels. i know i'm the first owner of my copy, but i don't recall where i bought it.

D, those TP's on gold always go for around $100. That's been the standard price for a while now. I'd love to buy it from you, but Xmas bills are killing me right now! I need that to complete my TP collection. I have the 7" on red and 1st pressing on black, plus the Lp on clear.

No shit, I got a box of rusty old fuckin pins, I gotta' start payin' more attention to this shit. Unfortunately, I sold all my vinyl years ago, when I had to get outta' Dodge. I've slowly been rebuilding, literally, my old record collection. It makes me ill thinking of some of the shit I sold.

(I had a Beatles bootleg of a recording session on blue vinyl, I'm sure that would be a pretty penny, seeing as how I paid 50$ for it in 1984).




Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?
