I sold a CD copy of AC/DC's Highway to Hell that I bought for $5 for around $200 on Discogs. I had to do some real digging to find out what was going on, as other editions were selling for just a few dollars as expected. Turned out my copy was one of the earliest CD prints & it had been transferred directly from the original masters without any remastering applied, transferred as AAD, so it was the only "original" untouched mix of the album available digitally. All other CD editions after that - including all those released to streaming services - had been remastered & "fiddled with". That is why my copy was really rare and fetched such a relatively high price even though it was "just" a CD, not even mint. Because that specific mix as a digital release was very rare.
Didn’t expect to see Coil on here! A pivotal 80s duo in the avant-garde/industrial scene. I see that boxset was released a couple years before the passing of John Balance. I’ve been loving the band this past year, so thanks for sharing some history about them I didn’t know previously! They have a great back-catalogue of genre-defying records if you’re still interested.
Me too, I know Coil from Peter Christopherson who was in Throbbing Gristle and Psychic TV. But he was also one of the three managers of the Hipgnosis record sleeve company, who made these iconic sleeves like Dark Side of the Moon.
I am pleased that Coil has a mention here. I followed John from Throbbing Gristle and Psychic TV, and also the Chris and Cosey project, and the end result is that I have most of Coil's catalog. Even though John is no more, I am not obsessive enough to pay such a price, but would gladly pay to view the Colour Sound Oblivion.
One thing to consider: some of the high-priced outliers might be autographed CDs, some of the low ones might be incomplete listings (only CD 1, no booklet, etc.)
Discogs is the best database ever. I have about 3,000 lps and 500 cds but only about 1,000 catalogued. I'm not selling but using it as a physical locator for the lps. Besides that, it's just fun to read about the history and reviews. And eyeball all the covers.
Discogs is a good site for pricing CDs to compare to other online sites. I’ve picked up a few CDs here and they were in good shape and a good deal compared to other sites. I buy box sets for the most part now. CDs that aren’t available for streaming. Thanks for the video. Rock on!
I've recently started collecting CDs of Japanese metal bands. The Japanese music industry is volatile to say the least and albums can quickly go out of print and can be difficult to locate. Some bands will release a CD with a limited run Boxed Set that includes a concert DVD or Blu-ray. Those can be extremely hard to find and I've paid as much as $180 for a rare box just so I can watch the 'extra' concert Blu-ray.
CD collector here, with some vinyl. Discogs is a great resource. I started cataloging my collection right after the 2017 Northern California fires. I have almost 70 successful purchases on there, but I always check seller reviews. I also cross-reference Amazon, eBay, cdjapan, ImportCD, etc. for the best price. I find the chase is better than the catch when trying to fill out my collection. Luckily, with my level of completionism, if I can acquire a physical copy of every available track through a retail $10 copy, then I don't care about the rare limited edition fanclub-only OOP pressing. But, it is an expensive hobby sometimes... I'm not proud of how much I've shelled out on box sets that contain the only CD releases of rare B-sides, promos, and/or previously unreleased material.
Not to be snarky, but, as a classical music fan, saying you had to look up how to pronounce "Herbert von Karajan" would be a little like me saying I needed to look up the pronunciation of "Beatles" or "Elvis Presley." He's probably the biggest (and most controversial) celebrity in classical music in the 20th century.
I'm one of the 23 with the limited edition COIL "beast box" live box. You should check out the albums Love's Secret Domain, Horse Rotorvator and The Apes of Naples. These are probably their most accessible work. Peter Christopherson was part of the art collective Hipnosis, which did many of the famous 70's rock album covers. In the 80's and 90's he did music videos for Van Halen, Nine Inch Nails, Rage Against the Machine, Ben Folds Five...
That would be Hipgnosis, but did not realize Peter was involved with them. Even though I have nearly all of their catalog, I won't be getting this live one....simply too pricey.
I won an eBay auction for the Dylan boxsrt in May 2024. With tax and shipping, I got it for $881. No regrets - the box gives an insider’s look at the creation of three of the best albums ever created (Bringing It All Back Home, Highway 61 Revisited, and Blonde On Blonde). Totally worth it!
I have that Woodstock box set. Beautiful collection limited to 1,969 copies and comes in a wooden box. It's all of the music performed at the festival with the exception of three songs. That $3.98 sale is probably not the entire box sold but maybe the original 2-cd set or something.
Some great info Aaron! Thanks for sharing. I understand that there were 500,000 people at Woodstock but over 1,000,000 people claim to have been there. I made that up!
discogs really is the best. i love cd maxi singles, and the number of regional variants can be staggering. not to mention what's on the cd maxi? what's on the japanese EP? what's on the cassette maxi? what's on the 12"? what's on the 2x12" dj promo? discogs knows! in my years of thrifting i never bought for value. i bought for personal interest. but while i was ripping everything i was scanning them into discogs and was blown away a few times by the possible market value of some of my 99 cent cds.
I love Discogs too! It's a great tool for many uses and I agree it's always fun to scan something in and be surprised at what others have paid for it. Thanks for watching and the kind words!
I’ve been a Coil fan since the late 80s. I’d recommend Love’s Secret Domain and its partner album Stolen & Contaminated Songs as a good entry into their catalog.
Well a product is only worth those amounts if a person is willing to pay for it, that does not mean that other people are willing to pay the same. So to say those amounts is now the value of it is kind of misleading.
@ If I paid a million dollars for a cd from a seller, that seller would be extremely happy but that does not mean that that is the products value, maybe to the buer but not everybody else. If someone else saw that and tried to sell the same cd for a million dollars I highly doubt he would be sucessful.
Yeah, that's why I included sales history to show when something sold often at a high price or not. Sometimes it is just an one time event and not the norm. But that's the same thing that happens in every hobby, like vinyl or card collecting, etc. Thanks for watching!
I would argue they are just reporting the sold price. I found similar high on pricing on eBay for some interesting CDs as well, just didn't include here to keep this video shorter but will probably do a video about at some point. Thanks for watching!
I sold my Velvet Underground complete Matrix tapes 4cd box set for £160 which I was completely gobsmacked by, but it is only partially available on streaming. I have it all downloaded to my iTunes tho'
One thing I always wonder about is how much these “whale” buyers and sellers impact keeping Discogs afloat and free (and with very minimal ads.) While Discogs probably doesn’t have a ton of offices or employees, it probably costs quite a chunk of change in hosting and storage costs, paid off of commission from user to user sales.
I thought some Philip Lynott / THIN LIZZY could have been in there especially 'Philip the man and his music' one of my sets would be up that's for sure.
I own a few 1000 dollar boxsets one of my favorites i own is summoning's sounds of middle earth boxset. Billy rays some gave all goes for 500 at lowest
Probably not the case for the $26 CD cause it was a too obscure band, but.. it is good to mention that there are scammers using discogs too. So if a popular rare item is being sold for a price too good to be true.. its probably a scam.
wow people have some deep pockets, but that being said look at vinyl prices for records that are rare. The Herbert Von Karajan box set wow 330 cd's , 24 Dvd's 2 blue rays. Who has the kind of time to listen this one. I like some his work he did .
The median prices are very high due to a few people paying over the top prices ,how can someone pay a 20th of what another person paid ,one freak reault means nothing
@ForeverAnalog and cds that is not even 10 years old they want 2000us$ for I know it might be limited to 400 but 2 years ago it was 50$ some of those sellers are huge companies
Hi - please check the Klaus Schulze limited Deus Arrakis Box Set on discogs and the sales history of this set. And then again: Do you really want to tell me that discogs is good for rating the value of vinyls, cds etc? Really? I do not think so.
Discogs is way over rated on value. Ebay shows very recent sales unlike Discogs that’ll show like 5 sales withing a 3 year span and somehow that’s supposed to tell you what it’s worth. Maybe I’ve been missing something about it for the last few years.
Excellent video! The price of these particular CDs is too high. Speculators would like to deceive fans. How do I fix this problem? Inform, warn against thieves and do not buy exorbitantly expensive records: CDs, SACDs, vinyls. Let's respect our own work and the money we earn hard. The case of Karajan's set of albums is simply a cabaret. Not funny. The world is not made up of millionaires.
I understand your point and agree these prices seem high, but there are always folks in any hobby willing to pay a lot of money for items they value at that price, regardless of what others thinks. For instance, I'm always blown away by what Pokemon card collectors pay lol. Thanks for watching!
I never understood, when I look up any album sold list on Discogs it normally only shows a handful of sales withing a 3 to 5 year spread and somehow that’s what their worth at the moment? Thousands of an album sells, but we’re going to base value off of 5 or so sales?
How about doing a top 10, 45rpm singles. There were numerous articles published over the years but I am sure that information is long outta date by 2025. The most I've paid is $125 but it was a private label release limited to 500 copies and only had local appeal.
There were 23 copies of Coil because they propably have 25 fans or so. If you were stupid enough to buy this at $2500 or whatever you will never ever be able to recoup your money as there is no market for it.
I think you make a fair point but perhaps those buyers never plan on recouping on the cost. People pay a lot for collectables in other hobbies too. I understand the feeling that it's too much though, lol. Thanks for watching.
Why people talk about it online ? Hyping some CDs to increase prices even more ? For example I collect CDs NOT LISTED ONLINE AT ANY DATABASE OR EVEN ZERO GOOGLE RESULTS.
Fair point but I don’t see this is as hype more like information. You’ll see most people in the comments aren’t running out to spend this kind of money lol. There are high priced items sold in every hobby 😊. Thanks for watching!

Yeah I think this applies to every hobby lol. Thanks for watching!
Scarcity is often expensive

@jimmycampbell78 That happens because some people are ready to pay any amount in order to own their most favourite and rare albums.
