omg. It's always been my "holy grail" record to find. I always look for Ringos black shirt lol. I have had chances to buy bad peels but nothing worth what they were wanting.
The hunt for that and a primed tank continues!
I believe my live rock is leeching phosphate. Is it safe to remove in order to get under control in DT?

I found that one and a peeled cover in the wild. Missing the record is no big deal since it is a $3 record.
I purchased my other ones. I have 1st, 2nd and 3rd in both stereo and mono. I remember buying one of the nicest peels that I had ever seen for like $100 and feeling like it was too much. How stupid was I? I bid at the starting price at an online auction for the stereo first state as mostly a joke from a well-known house with provenance and I was the only bid and ended up getting it. I got offers for it for like 5 years while the house had the auction up on their site and they would pass along the inquiries that they got. I mostly just wanted to tell people that I bid on a first state Butcher, but I got a nice surprise. I think that I put photos of all of them in my build thread when somebody asked if that photo was of my family, or something like that.
I do not have any records as valuable as those, but I have many others that I like more. My favorite is probably a LEGIT first press Blue Train that is still sealed and signed by Coltrane. I also have a White Album with number less than 500. I have a few Bowie and White Stripes signed stuff that I really like too. Turquoise Led with 2 signatures.
It is nearly impossible to find this stuff anymore, but garage sales are your only hope. Thrift and junk shops are picked through. We have a few good stores that have some really nice stuff, but you have to pay up.

Yeah, same. I just enjoy the thrill of the hunt. I love collecting stuff. I don't really even listen to the records but I have a playlist on my phone of all my records that I get.
My coolest find was a minty The Dead Milkmen – Eat Your Paisley. Which I never heard of and I don't really even care for. It was just one of those weird things that I thought might have some value.
My Beatles collection is really big but obviously nothing compared to any butcher albums.
I have an OG Odessey and Oracle signed by the group too.
