I have quite a few, but unfortunately none of them are the valuable pressings talked bout in this article. 

S Clark:
I've got a few that are >$1k lps.  Most of which I bought for under two bucks.  Probably my favorite is a NM first pressing of Bill Evans'  "Waltz for Debbie" followed by a NM-  Cliff Jordan and John Gilmore  "Blowin' in from Chicago".   Probably more rare, but not as valuable is a ballet written by Sidney Bechet
"La Nuit est une Sorcière" There's a short sequence on film   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDUPhUOSGa4

Folsom:
I've never had anything that sold for more than $500 at any point.

S Clark:
They mention "KInd of Blue" by Miles as a $1000 lp.  I've never seen one go anywhere near that high... because he sold too many. The highest sale price noted at Discogs was  $325.  VG+ copies go for $150 and up.

That article was talking about the prices for some very specific rare pressings.

In my experience, prices of really specific collectable pressings done usually show up on discogs as they are usually sold at actions or specific collectors shows or stores. and of course in those cases there are often deep pocket collectors around with more money than patience that have to have something right now and run the price up to a stupid level way outside of the normal range. So it would not surprise me if A copy of KoB sold for that much even though they usually go for much less.
