I'm feeling very sad and desperate. Can any kind Gouldian soul out

help me?
Thank you

PS I do have the Greatest Hits tape.
Apropos of this and some other recent topics here, I've been thinking
about auctioning (on eBay) a few items related to GG et al:
- GG On the record / Off the record (National Film Board of Canada, 1959)
VHS (sorry, not PAL)
- Slaughterhouse-Five (Vonnegut; GG in charge of the soundtrack) VHS
(also not PAL)
- Some of the original-issue LP's of GG where I have duplicates: Bach
inventions/sinfonias; partitas 5/6 (and two WTC 2 fugues); partitas 1/2
& Italian concerto
- The IPA/Desmar LP of Nyiregyhazi playing Liszt; fairly rare
- An as-new paperback edition of the _Glenn Gould Reader_ (all his
essays)
What I'd like to know is, anybody here have interest in these if I'd put
them up starting this weekend, or should I wait a couple months on it
yet? As an incentive for bidding, and in the community spirit of
sharing with other GG fans, I can give a 10% discount off the winning
auction price if the winner of any of these items is an F_Minor
member. (Call it a "family discount"...)
