These new releases from 2023 enticed collectors with their limited availability and deluxe packaging.
In 2023, some records on Discogs became instant collector’s gold. These releases enticed collectors with music from beloved artists, unforgettable packaging and design, and the rarity of limited-run pressings.
We looked at releases with the highest median prices in the Discogs Marketplace — and that were purchased at least five times — to find those deluxe reissues and audiophile pressings for which collectors were most willing to spend a few extra bucks. The result is a list that includes everything from archival folk reissues to death metal box sets.
Dig in and add some collector’s gold to your Discogs Wantlist or Collection.
