You could own Beastie Boy's Grand Royal! Here is the auction link. Cool record label and a really cool magazine but I think I only ever saw about 2 issues of it.



BILLBOARD



Meanwhile, the fate of the Beastie Boys' defunct Grand Royal label now rests in the hands of online auction site Bid4Assets.com. For a minimum bid of $10,000, potential purchasers can acquire the label's entire product inventory as of May 2002 (including thousands of copies of releases by acts such as Josephine Wiggs, Luscious Jackson, Buffalo Daughter and Money Mark), master tapes and a wealth of merchandise.



After an eight-year run, Grand Royal closed for good in March 2001, citing 'mounting debts, decreasing assets and exceedingly harsh industry conditions.' The Beastie Boys shifted their recording contract to Capitol, which later this year is expected to issue the group's first album since 1999's 'Hello Nasty.'
