Hey guys, just wondering if any of you could give me a rough estimate on the value of the following albums:
-Smiley Smile MONO Capitol pressing with Red Worm cover
-The Flame Brother Quad LP no glow
-Spring LP
-Annette Muscle Beach Party
-Child Of Winter 45

Thanks! :D

Using ebay as a barometer, a Near Mint copy of Smiley Smile Brother T 9001 can be had for $70-90 USD.

Let's just say $30-75 each, depending on the day of the week

Really, the "value" of something is only what someone is willing to pay for it.

'Child of Winter' $30-75?  Really?  I think I have three.  Must review my 45 collection.

The value of the Spring LP (assuming it's the US pressing) is also dependent on whether or not it has a cut corner.  I'd say 90% of the copies I've seen are cutouts -- so much so that IMHO the book value assumes that it's a cutout, and a non-cutout would command a premium.

I wonder if the beach Boys Price Guide coming out next year will note the difference

Really?   Would there be a market for such a thing?  Don't the goldmine guides etc give enough info on this?

I have tons of old albums and 45's,  including most all Beachboys releases, and extra copies.   Anybody wanna buy some?
