arab strap - rocket, it's your turn 12" limited to 1000 copies.
quicksand ep on 7" - original pressing.

The Damage Done (7") - Sisters of Mercy

unfortunately it would probably have to be the five copies of Coldplay's brothers & sisters 7" that I came upon for a tenner all in....

sorry, we did say collectable records, not actual good ones, right?

PS - anyone want to buy one? Awww, c'mon....

i have a 12inch blue vinyl of Panic -mmm

and a cd of glass onion which, apparently, is worth hundreds - sadly it's not mine but i can't remember who i borrowed it off and i wouldn't feel right selling it, even though it's shit.

Glendora-Downliners Sect, columbia "7, 1966

Rock Sect's in- Downliners Sect columbia, 1966

La De Da's- Self Titled, philips, nz 1966

changed my mind...

its actually a 7" of jonathan king's great 80s hit "It's illegal, it's immoral, it's unhealthy, but it's fun"

what a find THAT was...

The crackheads got my DJ picture disc, but I still got an original Man Who Sold the World (Bowie in the Mr Fish dress) on vinyl. Here's the irony: I also had the first US issue of MWSTW which was a cartoon cover, then the subsequent RCA release with Ziggy on the cover. The cartoon cover had some value because there were so few of them; now it's probably more valuable than the original I spent months tracking down. The advent of CDs brought back the original cover, so the MWSTW original I paid hundreds for in 1980 is probably not worth much now.

Also had some very cool Bowie bootlegs including Ziggy at the Santa Monica Civic, ChangesThree, Slaughter In the Air. The only one left from the years intervening hurricanes and floods and so forth is Live In Stockholm (also on vinyl).

Doncha think CDs have taken some of the fun outta collectables? I'll bet Mr Cadd and Creakyknees think so. I do.

Course I've got a lot more music now. So I'm not complaining. I like CDs. Just think there's a little of the romance missing since the (semi-)passing of vinyl.

Hey. I noticed some of my old punk stuff is still around. Like I've got the Buzzcocks' Raison D'etre single (with the great B-side You Say You Don't Love Me), Nine Nine Nine etc on vinyl. Those worth anything?

the early slayer albums on vinyl (the first two to be exact) are probably the most collectable in the sense that more than about 50 people might want them...

in the sense that less than 50 ppl would like to collect them .... promos of british rock bands from the 2000s

not mine but my dad has a Rush album, A Farewell To Kings, i think from the late 70s. Original, and it plays the same both sides...

i imagine that to be pretty collectable.

and why is there no rush profile on DiS, theyre a damn important and pretty huge band...

reign in blood by slayer on vinyl, signed by the band at the time...
first 3 idlewild singles on vinyl...
neil young on the beach and time fades away on vinyl, still wrapped in plastic...
mint condition vinyl copy of transformer bought on the day it came out...

I've spent a good sum of money on old Radiohead singles recently. I'm saving up to buy the 'Drill' EP cause I'm just that awsome.

For more recent things, I own a couple of complete Interpol 7" Antics box sets, and an original pressing of YMSS' 'Hurrah!'.

I have a copy of Keith Chegwins Worst songs in the world ever on cd. What makes it worth more on ebay is that it has some of his alcohol induced vomit on it.

I have reservations about posting on this thread because it feels like a "Look how cool I am, I have rare records" which isn't really very cool is it...

but I can't resist becasue I am weak.

I also have the original Peter Saville-designed 12" Blue Monday with the silver inner sleeve (1st edition)
I own the 12" of Interpol's FUKD ID EP on Chemikal Underground.
I have number 666 of YMSS's "Hurrah!..." which pleases me very much - not rare as such, although as it's the only one with the number of the beast, it is unique and makes me very happy!

That's probably the best I can do.

I have absolutely nothing collectible.

I feel somehow inferior.

Radiohead - I have all the singles from the first three albums, all bought on day of release.

Six By Seven - All the singles bar European Me, and my copy of the first album is signed by all 5 members.

dEUS - in a bar under the sea, signed by Tom Barman. And all the singles except Zea.

Motley Crue - girls girls girls and theatre of pain on original vinyl.

I'm keeping my eyes on the new Arcade Fire single, limited edition 3 inch CD with gold leaf lettering, reckon I'll keep it in the loft and bring it out for Antiques RoadShow in a few years!

The Libertines- What A Waster 7" (going for £26 on ebay i saw today)
M.I.A.-Hombre 12"(white label, handpainted artwork by M.I.A. herself and only 500 made- yay!)

plus loads of randoms from the 90's- first secret My Vitriol single on Org recods (doubt very collectable though!), first Bis 7", and so on....

Keane's Fierce Panda release of Everybody's Changing I think, sadly enough.

Not much really, but I do have the first release of Keane's This Is The Last Time and Subhuman by Garbage. Both worth a bit (but not a lot), according to E-Bay and Amazon.

Ooh I have the Darkness Christmas single promo with special Darkness wrapping paper and a ccard from the band. Does that count? Could be worth something one day.

I have the 12" "You Made Me Realise" EP by My Bloody Valentine, i guess that's fairly scarce these days.

I've also got the "Planet Of Sound" 12" by the Pixies - no idea if this is collectable really.
