I had purchased 4 NM Beatles Parlophone lp's at a local estate auction for $50. This was about 10 years ago and I was buying and selling records in Goldmine magazine, as eBay, etc. were not yet available. I listed the 4 Parlophones, and three of them got some minimal responses, but one was getting some high bids from all over the world.I did some quick research in my old Goldmine mags and found a dealer in England that had a huge 4 page ad with lots of pictures. He had the very same lp and was offering it for sale at $1,000. I called him on the phone to ask him about it, and found out that this lp had some special label variation that identified it as an export only Parlophone to Denmark or Scandanavia. It was a very rare record.
The price guides back then didn't address such small variations, and I had no idea I had a rare one.
