Of course nobody on this site offloaded any Jacko stuff when grief stricken fans were mortgaging their houses to buy ultra rare copies of Thriller.

"then the seller is incorporating his sentimental value into the asking price. "

Noticed this in charity shops, in one all singles were 50p except the Osmonds who were priced at £5, when I asked why I was told "But its the Osmonds, anybody would pay that for them" and last week I was assured that Tubeway Army should be the most sought after group. In both these shops the persons who priced the records were pricing their childhood up a bit.

I was speculating that you were a rare english-fluent Beatles fan from Honduras or some such. I love the latin american pressings, but I would hesitate to go on a shopping trip to Venezuela, for example. Kidnapping has become a huge problem there, and I can only imagine that a gringo with poor spanish language skills like me would look like a walking ATM to the criminal set.

On the other hand I would not hesitate to visit Argentina or Costa Rica.
