It's rare record time at Forever Vinyl:

THIS IS THE RAREST MICHAEL JACKSON COLLECTION ON EARTH. WE ARE SELLING THE FIRST PRESSINGS OF HISTORY, ALL NUMBER #1 OF 200 OFF THE PRESSING LINE, IN 12 DIFFERENT FORMATS AND FROM ALL COUNTRIES THAT PRESSED HISTORY. ALL WERE THE FIRST PRESSINGS FROM FACTORIES AROUND THE WORLD AND WHEN I SAY FIRST, I MEAN #1 OF THE FIRST 200 OF MILLIONS.

USA / JAPAN / BRAZIL / EUROPE / AUSTRALIA

What an amazing story. 
Imagine having the number one copy of HIStory in all formats. We are offering the original #1 pressings out of 200 numbered pressings in all formats of HIStory. The formats included Compact Discs, Minidiscs, Video (VCR), Cassettes, Laser Disc, and last but not least, the rare 3 record set. The 3 record set was the original pressing that was recalled because of the "Don't Jew Me, Don't Kike Me" thing that Michael caught flax for and had to rerecord. This is the original pressing before it was recalled. This pressing alone is valued at thousands of dollars. 

Now, all of the first 200 original pressings and formats were numbered 1 to 200 and I'm sure there are #2 of 200 and #3 of 200 out there but these are the very very first pressings NUMBERED 1 OF 200 made.  ALL ARE SEALED!!!! . NOTE: IF YOU ARE A MUSIC ARTIST AND THE FACTORY NUMBERS COPIES, WHO NORMALLY GETS THE #1 COPY???? NO MORE SAID... For the White album by the Beatles, the first four numbered copies went to John, Paul, George and Ringo. Wouldn't the first pressing off the line go to you know who?  THIS IS A ONE OF A KIND DEAL AND I'M NOT LOOKING TO BREAK THEM UP. What an injustice this would be to break up this collection.  All items are original. The set weighs just under 8 pounds. None of the items have cut corners or bullet holes. These were the original items right off the assembly line from plants around the world that were probably collected for one purpose and one purpose only.  

Because of time and storage, one item has a small minor crack in the case and the MiniDisc set has a small crush in the back of the box. See photos.

COLLECTORS TAKE NOTE. I DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU EVER OPEN THESE ITEMS. IMAGINE WHAT THE BEATLES NUMBER ONE WHITE ALBUM WOULD BE WORTH TODAY IF NOT OPENED. #5 SOLD FOR OVER $25000 DOLLARS ON 11/23/08 (http://www.popsike.com/php/detaildatar.php?itemnr=110312162347) THIS WILL FIND A BUYER!! BUT NEVER OPEN IT.  (Ok, if you buy it, do what you want with it :>).

If this is your first time buying from Forever Vinyl, I've been offering rare and hard to find records since the mid 70's when I had BackTrax Records in Trenton, NJ and when I used to work at WKXW 101.5 and DJ'ed at City Gardens / Trenton, NJ. My experience with rare music goes back 30 years. I find cool collectible stuff and what I don't look for is $3.00 records in good condition. Everyday records are not my thing and you won't find them in my catalogs at forevervinyl.com and you won't see them here. What you will see is hard to find items, long out of print music items, in VG++ to mint and some even sealed and original pressings. I carry audiophile records, test pressings, acetates, imports, original rock, jazz, blues, soul and all the stuff people loved but were hard to find then and still harder to find now and again, all in excellent condition. All items are guaranteed to be as described. I'm looking to keep my perfect ebay rating perfect. A rating I've had for over 14 years on Ebay. I am an Ebay power seller! I look forward to working with you now and in the future. Please refer me to your friends. I also buy and accept on consignment large collections in the same condition as above. If they are scratched or worn out, please don't send me that list. Unless it's ultra rare, I'm not interested.

Rolling Stone Magazine writes about Forever Vinyl: "Digging for Discs Online

The top sites for rare and specialty CDs and vinyl:
The places to start if you're looking for rare compact discs or vinyl are pretty obvious: Amazon, eBay and Google. But if they don't yield the original test pressing of Genesis Live you're looking for, here are some specialty stores to try. ForeverVinyl.com: An excellent source for out-of-print vinyl oldies, like a $150 picture-sleeve single of Dylan's "Hurricane" or a $100 copy of the lost Elvis Sings Christmas Songs.
