That is true!
Average records (excepting rarities) on my Victor IV and nicer ones on my Hi-Fi.
And also nicer common ones on my Victor :)

A records value is soo subjective ,and even depends on the mood of the buyer at time purchase ;) ...especially on eBay people do weird things there ...I bought a record for a little over $500 .A few days later another just as mint sat at $150 so I sniped it,why because I did not want someone else to get a better deal than I had on the first copy !.My point is a record is worth what someone will pay ....got the second copy for $152.50 ....what is the true value??

A beautiful record! Thanks!

I posted both sides to YouTube, but the WEST COAST BLUES side was blocked world-wide because of copyright issues. Too bad.

Here is the EARLY MORNING BLUES side:
