As I understand it, the last time this cylinder sold in an auction by a Texas-based semi-annual auction of vintage records it brought $1,500. Wow.

They are right. It's in the guidelines, you have to put "SOLD" at the beginning to replace "FOR SALE" and at least leave the price you had listed, if not update to reflect final sale price. Thank you.
