Here’s the proceedings from Sunday’s Jungletrain show. As explained in the previous post, this was meant to be a “Bargain Bin Special”, where Tim and I both dug through our collection for some of the cheapest stuff we could find. To do this efficiently, we went into Discogs under each of our collections, switched to “stats” view (the little bar graph icon in the top right) and sorted by median value (the median cost of the last 10 copies sold on discogs). Tim’s cutoff price for tunes in his mix was \u00a35.00. Mine was $3.00. <\/p>\n
Unfortunately, just because a tune has traditionally sold for quite cheap, doesn’t mean it’s cheap at this very moment. As the last post mentioned, we’re in a crazy peak of frenzied jungle buying, so some cheap tunes get bumped up very very fast. Hence a few of these which have always gone for next to nothing only have copies selling at way above those costs. To help with this, I’ve “burned down” the current price of the cheapest copy on discogs at the time of posting this. This doesn’t count copies which sold between Sunday and now, since we were giving out a fair few track IDs in the chat \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n
Also, other records in the list might still go for nice and cheap the next time a reasonable copy is listed; just because the only copy of something is selling for \u00a320, doesn’t mean it will go for that much if it’s never sold for more than 3. So feel free to add those to your wantlist and keep an eye out, you still might get them for cheap.<\/p>\n
Now, onto the mixes…
