I don't really want to trade. But I wonder what is my collection worth?

I'll give you a fiver for the Gift CD.

So it's a banal one? Vinyls bought between 1985 and 1989?

Sorry Martin.
The 12" singles normally go for between a quid and five in the UK. The albums not much more.
The Japanese Floodland is another matter though....

Rare?
It's almost the best Sisters of Mercy album, without the name and without Eldritch singing!

Is that Temple of Love CD in an "album" jewel box? Never saw that before, just in thin CDS cases. Canadian-pressed?

The gift CD is sadly, worth more than the rest of it put together. that isn't the Jap Floodland is it, just the lyric sheet inc. run
nice collection though, better to keep it

Maybe the case has changed…

… but if it had been changed, the original wasn't a thin one, neither, cause…

Don't let them get to you Martin. They can and will be rather caustic when given the chance.
By Von's book they are all rather valuable. But you really should upgrade to mp3.

Upgrade
to MP3 from vinyl?
Most would consider that downgrading

Not downgrading, degrading.

oh my, so sad. You all don't know how to embrace technology. Von knows how to hug...tekkie style.
MP3..it is the future. get on board.
Badlander. your one sexy gal. But shouldn't your hair be blonde?

I use MP3 every day, but for collecting's sake it's - well - rubbish. As long as I can't hold it in my hands I consider myself not to have it.
Nothing is as lovely as vinyl
And FLAC is the future

Well, I better like 256 kbps VBR AAC…
…or good old AIFF for my digitalized vinyls.

CD has less bandwidth than vinyl.

And you call that technology ? We got screwed big time, that's all.
