    While going on the Columbus Vinyl Tour last week, Derby Dave and I found 2 used copies of R.E.M. Fables at the same store. He needed a copy and I needed a back up for when I kill the copy that I play all of time.

    Yup. Lots of junk in the old used bin lately. It also seems like prices of used vinyl have surged a bit in the past 2-3 months. Seeing stupid prices on stuff.

    Yep, retailers are definitely taking advantage of the resurgence, just like record labels.

    I got a deal and payed $300 Canadian all in.
    A lot of money but I'd never be able to forgive myself if I passed on it.

    I have had some recent good luck in finding some pretty good stuff at excellent prices. Here's the highlights:
    Vinyl
    U2- Vertigo 10" UK Promo
    The Tubes first album UK pressing
    Robert Plant- Pictures At Eleven, Japanese Promo
    Jason and the Scorchers-Fervor,US stamped promo

    CDs
    Queens of the Stone Age-Era Vulgaris, Japanese Promo ($6 sealed!)
    Warsaw (early Joy Division)-Warsaw, Portugal pressing
    Stone Temple Pilots- Bug Music Presents STP, Bug Music Publishers US promo
    David Bowie- Introspective, UK, unauthorized
    Soundgarden- Badmotorfinger, Best Buy exclusive with valid free vinyl redemption code ($3.99 sealed)
    Stone Gossard- Bayleaf, Austria, stickered promo ($1)
    Ramones- Anthology 2 CD Box

    I also finished up the Zep deluxe remasters (I can't wait to buy all of these AGAIN in a few years...) with Coda, Physical Graffiti, In Through The Out Door, and the Complete BBC Sessions. I was happy to find those for only $8-$12 each brand new and sealed. I scored a ton of other stuff but again, those were the highlights. Thank you Rockaway Records, Los Angeles.
