these were the highest of the ones i bid on.

Would it be possible to add a "Date" column to the Shocker Log? Or is this encoded in the Item No. somehow?

Thanks,
- Ben

The problem is that the table is getting so big that it's going to eventually crash the software. Adding a date column is not going to help, and since there are 6 years of entry already without a date, starting the date info now would be a bit fruitless.

If you sort the list by eBay item number, you can get an idea of how old the listing is.

No worries Jon. It only made sense if it were easy. I certainly don't want to add more headaches to your day. This resource is invaluable as it is already in my book.

I'm going to have to change it somehow in Year 7. The data is too big for the forum post format.
I have to decided on either starting a new one, breaking it into different threads by format, or giving up on the thing all together.
Half the time, it's hard to tell if people actually look at it/use it at all. Plus, the days of the "big shocker" have pretty much been torpedo'd by conversions.

Hey quadheads
I am looking for Frank Zappa overnite sensation may be under the mothers whatever. I need it on a well recorded reel to reel (tails out) or a Tascam digital tape I can play back on a DA-88. The source can only be the reel to reel factory recording. I used to have this tape I know the mix. If you have the master and want to make a few xtra $ or want to trade me for some of my gems in my collection let me know I live in the Seattle area so someone local would be great but will consider others.
Thanks

$152 paid for moodies 'on the threshold of a dream' QR.
not sure if this price qualifies for the 'shocker' log but it's pretty high none the less.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260688409306&ssPageName=STRK:MEDWX:IT

in the latest batch of ebay QRs this was the highest price paid, at least that i saw.

 

[JonUrban]

Never thought I'd see Bonnie Koloc in the "Shocker Log"!!!!

Thanks for the info very cool did they sell them in stores or did you have to order them?

Yes.

Only "the real good" record stores sold stereo and quad reels, but they were usually in a book case in the back of the store. They were considered "expensive", and I can remember passing them up many times because they cost over $10.

TEN DOLLARS!!

Damn, back when $10 was a lot of money (to me). :yikes

 

[winopener]

Japanese have the good habits to print the prices directly... when a quad lp was in the 2200-2500 yen range, the quad reel was 6000!
Talk about expensive...

 

[quadguy n.w.]

WOW thats interesting I guess it is a luxury item $10 bucks huh in todays money that would be around 40 or 50 bucks! Like DVDA's cost more than CD's

 

[westgate]

not sure if this qualifies for the 'shock log' but here it is anyway-

deep purple, stormbringer', QR, $360

and one of my all time faves, that apparently i'll never be able to afford-

jethro tull, 'aqualung', QR, $322

these were both auctioned off last night.

i did end up with two 'affordable' qrs, 'fiddler on the roof' and a george benson QR, forget title rilght now.

Oh yeah, they make the list!


Two snipers! A sure way to make a seller happy!

 

[westgate]

bid opener of ~$200; shocker log fodder ya think?

[cupboy]

Well if it does I've got the ultra-rare Dolby B version. Not sure if I'd sell it though. I'd guess there will be 0 bids at that opening price.

 

[westgate]

there'll probably be some just before the auction end. i would think.
