There's a whole subculture of people who'll pay through the nose for mispressed old Plus 8 records (I used to know someone who would happily fork out 60 quid for a copy of Minimal Nation where side C was pressed on both sides of the second record, or a Kenny Larkin EP with the wrong sticker, etc etc), so assuming he paid a normal amount for it (6-8 quid) he might make quite a profit...
