Indeed I can see how a unique item like the Mona Lisa has a high value but mass produced electric guitars go for silly money, anyone for a 1959 Les Paul?

Luckily there are a lot of second hand records at more reasonable prices than £2,400. Perhaps it's just the emergence of high end 'investment' market in old vinyl already seen in art, wine, cars, etc.?

Its a bleedin minefield!

There are companies claiming to sell the best or "hottest pressings" of widely available vinyl for silly money. They decide of course what that actually means but a handful of rich customers, maybe even just 10 or so, keep these shops in very good bizznezz. One such bloke makes so much dosh he can afford to live extremely comfortably. Guess Graham's in the wroing business😤

I just picked up a NM- UK pressing of Pink Floyd's "A Nice Pair" on vinyl.  That is a good way to get both Piper at the Gates of Dawn and A Saucerful of Secrets -- good quality pressings -- without breaking the bank.  You have to be careful which pressing you order...I've read that both the US and Japanese pressings of ANP swap out the studio version of Astronomy Domine for the live version.

Not to totally change the subject, but I feel similarly about the bank KISS.  I don't get it..
