When I first started buying 45s $10 each was like "are you kidding!!" Today .99 cent scores are difficult when talking 45+ year old records. Each one of your pressings could really be considered "rare" - especially if the owner of the master source only pressed up one or two copies. What about label graphics and stuff like that?
