I'm at a point, money-wise, where I can't keep both the original and reissue of an album; need to trim down and such. However, I'm at a loss of which is the best sell. If I keep the original it appreciates but I listen to it so it depreciates. Kinda depends on how much demand there is at a later date. Selling the reissue means I get hardly any money, maybe as much as I paid for it, but it's unlikely it will appreciate as the years wear on.
Ideally, it'd be keep them both and only listen to the reissue but ain't gonna happen. I mean, what's the real-life chance of a bear market in this kind of economical windfall? Discuss.

the real life answer is you should give me all the records you do not listen to.

180g reissue better when original was RCA dynaflex

I Wanted to get the Ohsees Masters bedroom on ITR.....but it's only a reissue.

Re-issues always seemed sorta of a retarded collecting thing to me. Sure they will appreciate but for a feeling of getting the real thing, you gotta go original. Always. And if you wanna listen to the stuff, try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MP3.

I've always had a problem with this too. Like, DEVO. I have all of the originals, yet I'm still tempted to buy the color reissues. Why? Or the Sonic Youth reissues that are going to happen. I don't know if I feel I need to collect them, or I'm looking for better sound quality. But I still NEED the original. What the hell is wrong with me?
