If You Are A Record Collector, You Might Be Sitting On Some Incredibly Valuable Vinyl

The Velvet Underground – The Velvet Underground & Nico (1967)

Punk rockers eat your hearts out! The Velvet Underground is one of the godfathers of the wild genre, and although they would be considered mild by today’s raunchy standards, they caused quite the scene in the 60s. Bureaucrats did their best to erase this record off the face of the Earth, but the band still enjoyed 30,000 sales. When a Canadian collector spotted a copy in a flea market stall, he bought it off the oblivious peddler for less than a dollar. He then sold The Velvet Underground & Nico for $25,200!
