Highest-Selling Most Expensive Vintage Sonic Youth T-Shirts

Welcome to a special edition of Heat Check! Sonic Youth t-shirts have been hot lately, and these are the top ten highest-selling Sonic Youth t-shirts on eBay over the last three years.

Some ground rules before we get into the list:

1. I don’t personally authenticate these t-shirts, nor does Defunkd, but you can use our forum to get your goodies checked.
2. I do my best to confirm the transaction is real, but that doesn’t mean that it wasn’t a shill bid or returned. If a sale looks too fishy, I leave it off the list.
3. These are eBay sales only since we have tools to verify the sale price. Private sales aren’t included in this list at the moment.
