I prefer paying nothing or next to nothing.. but yeah, if you're really into diggin, sky's the limits. My first collection (close to 4000 pieces), over half I snaked out of shops and libraries when I was a grimy lil teen-ager in the 80's and 90's. Ever since I lost that collection in'96, I just chill patiently buying what little I can, and waiting for people to just give me records. The highest I've paid for one album is about $165, a "Japanese only pressing" of Masaru Imada Trio+ Three's "Green Catapillar". I got jacked really bad... it was an ebay auction. When the record arrived, turned out it was 180 gram re-issue and not an original pressing. I could've ordered the same damn record for $35 + shipping off a website.
