The thrift store I've been hitting does 10/$1. Have scored some nice stax 45's, Spider man, Hulk, and lots of other sampler food. But my crown jewel value/rare wise is
Marcus Belgrave Gemini II - 10 cents

Cannonball Adderley "Love, Sex and the Zodiac", near mint condition for $2.50!!!

biggest steal......when I STOLE a bunch of mint condition Beatles/Hendrix records, then traded them back to the store for like 150 records....hahahha

"spanish inferno " conducted by alverez 50 cents

ravel y su orquesta 50 cents, for people that know jedi mind tricks this record has hte sample from the last track on visions of ghandi raw is war 2003

i found this record at a trift store a couples of days ago for 50 cents its a double lp called playboy its a jazz record with some old school artists(bennygoodman,ella fitzgerald,louis armstrong, dizzy gillipese and countless others dope ish man for 50 cents gotta luv it

i used to work at a thrift shop so i picked up about 150 for $5 one time and my step dad hooked me up with about 200 of his old records. that was cool, he's got good taste in music.

lemme get up in this!

9th Creation (the black one with the lips on it) original press near mint!! one dolla make ya holla!

skull snaps (my boy dug for it in Japan) ORIGINAL PRESS!!!!!!! $3.00 no joke

We have this thing in Holland called 'koninginnedag' (queen's day; the queen's birthday), where the whole country turns into a yard sale. I came from the club around 7am, when everyone was setting up their stuff to sell. I came across this guy unloading a box of jazz records: Miles, Blakey, Coltrane, Sun Ra.... You name it. I was pretty drunk so I quickly browsed through it and offered him $20 for the whole crate. He took it.
I took the crate home and went to bed. I woke up a couple of hours later and seriously got out of bed to check if it hadn't been a drunken dream. Everything was still there...

well i never really stole no records. tried to steal the colleges records once but got thrawted. I did pic up a crate of classic rock for free on the side of the road. mint conditoned sealed classics. These records are worth mad money. Like stones uk imports and alot of psych rock. nothing really that i would sample but still ill none the less.

Magnum - Fully Loaded for $1
The first Incredible bongo Band for $1
Herman Kelly & Life - Dance to the Drummer's beat LP for $1
Ramp - Come into Knowledge for $1

I went to an old hard rock record store while on vacation & they were filed in the dollar box.

Simon philips sound "two Generations" LP with drums away break for £1

Thats not the OG, and worse still, it sounds like it could be a bootleg

Yeah, they're both promos. They say "NOT FOR SALE" on the label.
I also have the LP that Big Beat is on. Got that for cheap too if I remember correctly.
