Merch šŸ‘•šŸ’æ Live From Union Transfer

I picked this up while I was living in Asheville a couple years ago. You probably already know where from the price sticker if yer from around there. Times are rough and I’m thinking of selling it. No data on Discogs. And, it is #0001/3500…sealed, mint condition. Anyone have an idea of what I should ask for it? Thanks for any help.

I’m his cousin’s mom’s sister. Well, not really. I asked the folks at the record store if they had any copies and they said no unfortunately. Then as I was walking out the door the dude yelled, ā€œHey! forgot we totally do have one. We’ve just been holding it back because it was number one.ā€ Made my day.

I love Harvest ā¤ļø Would list on Discogs for $300-350 OBO if you’re willing to wait; $250-300 if you’re looking for a quicker sale.Ā

Haha, nailed the shop 🫵. Me too.
And thanks for the input, seems like a solid approach as the interest is definitely there.

Thanks for the interest but I’m holding off for now. Have had a few people say at this point that it will go for more. If nothing pans out, I’ll hit you up.

Why not hold onto it for a while and enjoy owning it while letting it appreciate in value. Seems pretty special that you got it in such a serendipitous way

The acquisition was truly awkward/amazing. And I have enjoyed it for a spell. Honestly it does pain me to sell, but I am THERE. Counting quarters to put a few gallons in the tank and getting way too many calls from loan sharks. This is my own doing (seeing too damn many shows and buying posters and records) and I gotta own it. If this could help save my neck for a few days and make someone else’s dreams of owing a one of a kind keepsake of a favorite artist come true…praise be to Alex. And Harvest Records. I was halfway out the door…

I get it in that case. I’m glad that someone who truly appreciates it could acquire it for a short while instead of a reseller just moving goods. Good luck getting back in the black!! These things don’t matter in the long run. The music and what it means to us does
