Saw this on our local shop Instagram .... One of us!!!! Definitely someone into the early stuff and maybe some subscriptions? Unclear. Note some of the prices, and Josey doesn't give away records (nor do they gouge though).but I was surprised to see so many in the $10-15 range.

Damn, a solid collection right there. I always wonder what the story is behind a large collection getting dumped.

It's hard to pin down what exactly keeps some of those DWRC/Mondo titles so low... I mean, somebody is selling a copy of Frank Ilfman's Big Bad Wolves for $1.50 USD on the 'cogs and nobody is buying. Maybe they just pressed too many copies of these soundtracks with really questionable cover artwork... haha. I mean, it's not a bad score and I own a copy myself, but I don't pull it off the shelf... and I do not like the artwork or color vinyl at all. Maybe I just answered my own question. ;)

Wow some old classic DW and mondo in there for sure...that beyond pressing...

That’s quite a bit of pre merger DW, but straight through 2016 at least.

I bought a couple records from a collector in my neighborhood who stopped collecting. Before I could buy more he had sold everything to one party. I think at least 750 records from all the 'new' labels + a lot of old stuff. Bought in the last 6 years.
Seeing the rate at which he bought everything I might have an idea why he sold it all. Still a shame though.

Not to be snarky (who me?) but this kind of behaviour speaks volumes to me about what kind of music/film/'collector' this market has created. I have soundtracks i bought (and have enjoyed endlessly) since I was 13 years old, because the music still kills me or I love the film. My guess is that there's been a pretty high rate of this kind of panic/fetish collecting and ensuing penury/remorse going on, esp with DW/Mondo who have been seen to be the coolest of the cool.
Jump in to the fire sale boys, the water is lovely!

Very interesting thread. The soundtrack re-issue market did get very saturated & seems to have slowed down... or maybe I have just become more choosy & selective as my knowledge of which soundtracks are 'the good stuff' has grown.

I also have an impression that there are a small group of 'super fans' buying all this stuff, perhaps why most releases stick at around 300 or 500 in number.
