I recently found a used copy of Frank's All My Ghosts single, the 4trk one with the kick ass Dylan cover on it. I have only found one copy of this anywhere else on the net, on CDNow.com, and the guy is asking $300 for it. Can anyone here clue me in as to whether this CD is really THAT rare, or is this guy on CDNow.com smoking something?
cheers

I had emailed the guy selling the $300 copy of this via cdnow/amazon and he told me "supply and demand" that there aren't many around and that he's "sold them for this price in the past." Ridiculous. |

I paid $3 for it, so I didn't figure it was worth much. Not like I buy these as "investments", anyhoo. Thanks. |

I have a promo of "I Gotta Move" with "Humboldt" and a rather lengthy conversation with Frank over dinner. The cover is very similar to the one linked to above. Anyone know how common it is? |

I know the kind you mean, with the plastic tray in it. I have never seen it that way. Here's the 4 track on ebay right now as well.

I love that cover....by the way, I did'nt mean a thin cardboard 'slip' cover-I think the 'Ghosts CD I saw may have been a kind of fold-out cardboard thingy. Unfortunately, I can't remember.

I Though it had some kind of card-cover, I can't rightly remember. |

Cardboard cover? I have the "All My Ghosts" 4 trk single, and it's in a maxi case. I grabbed it in a local record shop about the time DITS had come out. I can't believe it would sell for as much as some of you are saying though. I agree with Dave, it has to available somewhere for a few bucks. |

I'm still kickin' myself I did'nt get it when I saw it in a record shop ages ago, even though I have it in the form of the FB+C's 2CD edition. I just love that cool trees illustration and the cardboard cover!

I was the one looking for it earlier.
I think you can still buy it from some French retailer for a few bucks...nothing too exciting.

That particular version of the single was on eBay and going for something like...$700 or $900. Maybe even in the $1000s. People are constantly trying to sell this single for ridiculous amounts of money, and nobody knows why.

If you look at the guy's other stuff, he's selling a lot of random $7 and $8 CDs. He's not a "rare records" guy. My guess is that $300 is a typo. Either that or he's real misinformed. |
