i dont use price guides , my friend lent me his new price guide this weekend for the record show , so i used that to price up some records ,and i just came across a few that i see while searching and that happen to be one i see as it's becoming more popular we have sold 3-4 copys in our store. even the first BC is worth about 15 bucks.

it was a lastest edition "Goldmine 4th edition 2005" only has albums tho.
i need one that has albums and 45's ,plus price guides get outdated fast, the best way is to do your footwrok and go from shop to shop and see what others price there records at and go form there to price your own.

SUPPLY IN DEMAND

I'm feeling lifted today. I just managed to find Jay Love Japan on wax, I'm not to sure if it's rare but I've never seen it before. Such a sweet record.
