$255 with some time left!

Sold for $282(ish). Was that a decent deal?

If you needed them, it might take several years to put a set together. Finding them perhaps one at a time, on eBay, and then paying postage for each one. If you were at a phonograph collectors' swap meet, seems a nice album, standing alone, would be worth around ten dollars. Once you assembled all 13 of them, you would have a lot of time invested in looking for them, not to mention the costs. (assuming also that they matched) So my less than one year experience, says if someone needed them, they may have paid a little more than they wanted to, but they wisely grabbed the opportunity.

Good point, Mike. The beset deal or bargain is the opportunity to get the item while you can. An opportunity make not happen for a long time.
