Had friends around on the weekend & they were going through all my old records, they came across this one, (which is my second fav album of his behind Sefronia) & they said that it is worth a small fortune, evidentally it didn't sell well, so there aren't many copies around.

My question is, how do I find out what it is worth, not that I would sell it, unless I could get it on CD which is impossible, they suggested advertising it on Ebay & seeing what people offer, do you have to sell things you advertise on Ebay, or can you just say, sorry I changed my mind.

The record itself is in mint condition, I take care of all my albums, but the cover is a bit faded because of age.

The best way to use ebay is to search for what you've got. I just put in Starsailor Tim and got this:

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2572324732&category=1053

$79 with 23 hours to go....looks pretty good!

You are kidding me, so it is worth money. Most of my friends hate this album, HHHMMMM maybe I might tape the album & see how much I can get for it, mind you, I would have to get a 4 figure amount before I part with it. :D

you can set a reserve on the price you hope to receive for your item.. if it is met.. then u are obligated to sell to the successful bidder...

best way on ebay, is to look at the 'completed items'...
eg. what starsailor has sold for in the past...

****k... original vinyl..
one sold the other day.. for aud$239 !!!

Cheers for your help, no way I would sell it for that, I love this album, would have to be at least a $1,000, I guess I don't really want to sell it, just curious because my mates said it was worth heaps.

WOW, my whole record collection is probably worth a lot of money, now if only I could part with it. :eek:
