Michael Bailey Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 If I have a fairly nice copy of a rare record, which I paid a lot of money for, is it...problematic if I pay a lot of money for the same record on a different-looking version of the same label (equally valued by collectors)?
Tomangoes Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 I always wanted Sandy Waddy on SOS and Wand, but never got both at the same time. Go for it! Collecting is an individual taste. Ed
Guest Gogs Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 If your cash flow allows then do it, i've got a couple on different labels and US & UK issues but all at the cheaper end of the market.
Frankie Crocker Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 No, it’s not a problem. If you are a dedicated collector, then go forth and collect. Some go for demos and issues. Others go for West Coast and East Coast releases. Just lately, I’ve started holding on to label variations to avoid the hassle of selling records I already had a copy of. Better to have and to hold...

Can you be more specific about the record?

Amsterdam Russ Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 No harm in having more than one copy of the same tune...
Geeselad Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 (edited) Don't begrudge anyone doing it. Each to there own, but it's not an element, in collecting thats ever appealed to me, or the zest for the unheard, that's drivin the scene for so many years. Edited October 28, 2019 by Geeselad
