No doubt Ebay is the best price source. But, the point I was dicking around was vinyl has moved much higher than almost anyone thought it would go a few years ago.
Sort of like back in 60s and even early 70's you could go to Goodwill and sort through large tables of vacuum tubes for under a $1.00. Things change, and the things we took for granted suddenly become surprising.
Heck, I've been studying 78's pricing on the Bay, as I am astounded by the pricing on early Country and Blues/Jazz.
When I go to the used record store, I pretty much only go through the Classical, as not many paw through it and often times the Store doesn't know what they have.
