My local record store has sealed Vitalogy and VS original pressings on vinyl.

Anyone know the going price for these?

Anyone interested?

I have both opened, so please spare me the records are made for listening posts.  Some collectors like sealed copies too!

    Are they really the originals or re-issues they have labeled wrong? Sealed copies of both originals would easily sell in the hundreds. How much are they selling them for?
    It's a hopeless situation...

    They are a legit record store, and they aren't reissues.  

    I looked on ebay of course, and I saw a range of prices in both the currently for sale and the sold completed listings.

    It looks like Vitalogy is worth a bit more.

    They are asking $60 each.  

    On ebay, some Vs have sold for less than that lately, but that seems to be around a fair price.

    Vitalogy seems to sell for more like $90-100 on a good day.

    Am I looking wrong?

    I've been collecting vinyl for over 20 years, but I've only become a big PJ fan in the past 5 years or so.  It was pretty easy to find open original pressings of Ten, VS, and Vitalogoy, but I do like sealed copies for my favorite bands and albums.

    They supposedly had Ten, but it sold.

    I'm not on Discogs, even though I've been collecting so long, so I didn't look up prices there.

    $60 seems about right for original pressings still sealed

    Both should be in the 60-75 range so $60 is a good price for them.

    I started collecting vinyl in the early 2000's when literally record stores were unloading used vinyl for $1.00 per pound.  

    I paid $45 back then for an orginal Vitology... which my girlfriend melted by leaving next to the furnace.  
    I paid $60 for the next one.  
    This was all before reissues.

    Reissues really dropped the price and demand for original pressings.
