Sketches was released on CD last week so Discogs prices will come crashing down. I bought the CD for £14, ripped it, then sold it on Discogs for £16 the same day.
The majority of limited releases hold their retail value, ultimately it's the music pressed on them that counts. If it's worth playing then it's worth paying for, sleep on them and you end up paying 2/3 times the original price.

I agree with the sentiment of if it being a good release and if its limited enough and especially something unique ( off-genre remix like a techno artist doing a downtempo industrial version or something ) then I'd pay a good amount for it.
Vinyl like that tends to appreciate so it's always nice to have something like that as a part of your collection.
The problem with limited is if it's really successful and sells fast there will almost always be a repress a few years down the road for if not immediately after its out of stock and those tend to be quite a bit cheaper.

That ability 2 record i bought for 4.50 from a second hand shop in London. Yesterday I bought a brand new record for £14.99. It came to about £18 with P+P all in all. I dont normally do this, but I love this track and if I know I am going to play in the clubs for ages I can justify it as the money i get from my gigs will cover the cost of it. £20 essentially for something that I am going to enjoy for the rest of my life seems like nothing to me. I have spent a lot more on the second hand market.
