Another month, another chance to rifle through your old CD collection to see what the most wanted items in the format are on Discogs for June 2025.
With the UK summer festival season truly underway – Download Festival and Parklife taking place this week, and the mighty Glastonbury Festival at the end of the month – has that led to a change in what items users of the online marketplace are after? Or, is it much the same as last month?
We’ve taken a look once again at the most wanted items on compact disc, and compact disc only (no LPs featuring CDs this time), to bring to you this month's essential items for collectors. And as always, if you’re in the market to sell or buy one, a word of caution.
Prices regarding musical releases can and do fluctuate, so keep an eye on both the highest price an item has sold for when looking through your catalogue you’ve uploaded to Discogs, and more importantly, take a look at the median (average) sales prices. Just because someone wants a certain release, doesn’t mean that it might be worth the fortune you think.
Maybe keep it in that instance?
