Come on all, it's not like this hasn't happen a hundred time before.
People paid high prices for the first copies of 'The Flasher' way back when.
There will always be a cue of trophy hunters or dj's that see a record fill the floor for someone else and want a piece of the action. Their are few of us out there that can't say we haven't been caught up in the buzz or fever around one record or another in the past. A record gets popular, supply outstrips demand so the price goes up, cuz no one will wait. In many cases there is a supply big enough to satisfy demand (like, 'Party time man'), but the speed of that supply getting to the market, didn't match the moment in time everyone wanted it.
Is any of this wrong? hell no, just makes the 'scene' what it is, and why we love it (and we do love it). Drama, intrigue, hero's and villians, better than a soap opera.
Back to the record in question, nice tune. If you want it now, for what ever reason, you'll have to pay the price (make a great song title ). If you already have it cuz you buy tunes you like, good on ya.
