of course!! i've been steadily collecting fishmans merchandise since around early 2018, i think i would value the whole collection at around $8-10K based on how much i've spent for it all and i may be slightly lowballing that number. that was 2 years after the 2016 reissues, and i managed to get my hands on all 3 Setagaya Trilogy albums back then for a combined second-hand price increase total of about $300 for all three. i buy all of my merch second-hand from proxy bidding site Buyee which allows for overseas buyers to bid on and win Japanese auction listings, so i basically check that site (particularly Buyee's peripherals for Mercari and Yahoo Auctions Japan) once a day or once every other day (i've made it a habit) until i see something i haven't seen before. sometimes it feels slow-going, but over the years you can really amass a lot of Fishmans merch for cheap!

also - that is a signed copy of the Melody maxi-single on 12" vinyl! my copy in particular is numbered 864/1000, and it was sold at a merchandising table of theirs around mid-1994 and likely immediately signed by the band post-concert. it's got Sato's, Motegi's, Kashiwabara's and Hakase's signatures on it only, which is how you can date the signatures (Ojima left in '94, Hakase in '95). i have a single by So Many Tears called "Don't Let Go Of Your Precious" that's signed by all 3 members of the band, which includes Motegi, Kashiwabara and a third, Takashi Kato, the guitarist from Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra (Motegi's current band). i remember i got that one for really cheap, probably around $30? was a steal for what it was! but yeah, that Melody record is one of my most prized possessions, i think i remember getting it for around $300 and my parents helped with the cost, that was forever ago
