living in south korea at the moment and I'm just wondering what the cost of vinyl here is, compared to wherever you are...
1st, there's only a few spots to hit up in seoul... but the cheapest place is a $2 spot... there's another guy who has nicer stuff, and all of his are $5... then theres a bunch of high-end collector type stuff and the prices go through the roof there...

is this typical or am i paying way too much?

Between 1 dollar and 80 dollars. I buy 'em cheap. I dont sample the same stuff everybody else does (soul, real R&B). Some foreign records I got at Half Price Books are my favorites to sample. They were .98

Its not the sample, but how creative you are with it. You can sample anything.

I try not to spend more than $1.50 on a record, so it's basically all thrift stores and dollar bins for me.

here in Stockholm prices go from about 2dolllars to 20dollars depending on what you want.

All the stores are pretty dug out though, not easy to find good stuff cheap.
