Tempests Lp; Mono Or Stereo Value

[Dean]

Just a quick one: I know there's been a couple of threads around the Tempests LP recently, apologies if I've missed this info on those threads.

Is there much of a difference in the collectability / value between the Mono and the Stereo issues of this LP. Deciding which to keep.

Thanks, Dean.

What do we think pricewise for the Smash LP these days?

The US release usually sells for $75-$100 on eBay these days.

The superior MONO release is much harder to find than the STEREO release though. There goes about 5-10 stereo copies for every mono copy that turns up.

That post is over two years old and way out on the prices today. You will be lucky to get either for less than £100 never mind in dollars. The above post should be the case though as it isn't that rare, plenty of copies have been on the market and continue to come up for sale.

Bi of a bargain compared to what some copies have one for lately. Still all it's worth in reality, just demand pushing the price.
