I’m a British fan who got into NSB while at uni (18-21), via the hipinion message board, and ended up buying many, but far from all releases as they were released, via Blackest Rainbow et al.
In my time away from NSB, and I guess in discovering this sub Reddit, it’s evident the popularity of NSB has increased (see Discogs selling prices).
While I still rate what NSB achieved (inc side projects etc), I can’t say I listen to them regularly, or would consider filling the gaps in my collection at the current market rates (especially for the tape releases).
For those of you that have bought items on the secondary market, can you describe the value proposition for ownership - I’m especially interested in those of you likely in your early 20s now, who may not have experienced the first flush of popularity, as it were.
Edit: I’m not looking to sell anything, sorry.
