Just for kicks and giggles the auctions closed and the Hank Mobley ended up going for $3618 while the Lee Morgan went for "only" $ 3494
(The same guy won all four of the auctions I tracked, paying over $11K for 4 LPs - WOW!)
And just for a point of reference, the same Hank Mobley LP is being offered in a Japanese pressing for only $39 on an ebay buy it now listing. So Rich was right it,it looks like it was just a first edition thing.
(And I have five bucks that says the guy who bought them never lets them hit a turntable because they are "too valuable" to risk any damage that might happen while playing them.
)
Like I said before - to each is own............
