So any album, if it's the first album, on a near dead medium such as cassette, has to be worth more than $3? That actually sounds like they priced it too high. 98% of cassettes are worth a dollar or less.

Also, it could be clearance. I out out records for less than $5 that are worth more than $10 because they've sat around forever.

^ Ouch! I wonder how close you were to getting a permaban for that post, Clefsong

I guess by now you know that Exo runs a second-hand record shop: https://www.musicbanter.com/members-...cord-shop.html

So do you walk in an Oldies Store and immediately give them the first degree, perhaps waterboard him to see how much he knows, or do you make conversation and try to get to know the shopkeeper first?
