The beginning of August might not be the time when you are thinking: Which expensive records were sold on Discogs? You might be more worried about not getting sunburnt on a nice beach, finishing that incredibly addictive book you started days ago, eating outstanding amounts of seafood… We know what’s up. But if you’re still around and you are curious about some incredibly rare, expensive items sold in our Marketplace. We’re here for you, as always.
Even if June might not seem like the craziest month for record hunting, our numbers speak about a different reality. In June 2019, no item out of this Top 30 moved hands to its new lucky owner for less than $1103. Nothing new for those of you following this blog, we even dedicated a full article to the topic some months ago.
But you know what’s actually new? June’s most expensive record. You’ve probably never seen it before since this is the first time that it has ever been sold on Discogs. There isn’t a whole lot of information available about it. We can tell you that it’s a Free Jazz record released in Sweden on the label Bird Notes. Apparently, there might be less than 10 copies available worldwide. Scroll down to solve the mystery of our latest number 1.
And of course, have a look to all the records in between, including hidden gems such as a Japanese original copy of Down On The Street by The Stooges released in 1970 or a Portuguese copy of Space Oddity by David Bowie. Enjoy!

I think it still is, music and meaning from the band are ‘punk’ now years later people pay a small fortune for it does not make it less punk.
Hi, I sold a Led Zeppelin II for $1,951 on June 27.Is there a reason that it is not listed here?
https://www.discogs.com/sell/order/4282547-274
It looks like the paid invoice is noted as July in the system. It should be on next month’s list!
Quite, absolutely Solitary man!
What does the band have to do with what people are willing to pay for their product?
Is a punk 7″ still a “punk” 7″ if it sells for over $1000? ;) !!!! Misfits, Gorilla Bisuicuits, I’m looking at you, not literaly unfortunately :(
I sold a record for 1,500 in June. Did you miss it? Lol
100%
“Brixton Rocket” sounds to me somewhat derivative of Neil Diamond’s “Solitary Man.” Anyone else hear that?
