You know what PT Barnum said...im always amazed people are willing to pay as much as double or tripple (weavers in this case) for in print records even used ones! it pays to do your due dilligence.

Nope. Not me. I've been buying a lot of used vinyl lately. Got a Decca first pressing of Let it Bleed, a first pressing of Desparado, some 'RL' Mountain records, an old broadway Atlantic Percy Sledge promo, an early Aqualung on reprise, pink rims of John Barleycorn, Shoot Out at the Canteen and about 4 other pink rims- most of which ranged in price from 8-30 bucks. I've probably bought close to 60 or 70 records in the last several weeks, very few 'audiophile' records, though I found a Nautilus of Dooby Bros for 12 bucks. Call me a smart shopper.
There was an allegedly unplayed copy of LZ II 'RL' but the guy wanted too much $ for it. I made him a respectable offer, but no go.

I believe Chad's AP Weavers is a newer Quality Records 200g pressing. The one on ebay is an earlier AP pressing, 180g. What is means is that people who know this still would shell out more money for an earlier pressing than a present one. This happens quite a lot. Belafonte in Carnegie, Miles Davis' Kind of Blue, these have been re-issued to death but the earlier ones always fetch a high price.

good catch. i happen to own the first remaster on 180g and the recent one, both incidentaly done by Doug Sax and the recent weavers remaster is the best. same goes for the janis Ian.
