Pin Group 7 inch singles

Would you pay over NZ$1,000 for 2 little 7 inch records? OK, so they are rare Kiwi singles, but heck, that's a lot of folding stuff for just a couple of little records. The Pin Group was one of the very first bands which recorded for the iconic Flying Nun record label. The first single produced by Flying Nun was Pin Group "Ambivalence" (catalogue number FN001), and boy it has just fetched $625.00 on TradeMe. The less well known "Coat/Jim" (Flying Nuns third single-catalogue FN003) went for a mere $440.00.  Both records have unique hand painted sleeves and labels, which gives them their value no doubt.
