My Record Store Day Experience

To find cheap records, I go to Goodwill or Salvation Army. I also go to a flea market and antiques mall where it's so overwhelming how many records there are for sale. Unfortunately, at the antiques mall, some of the better albums are going for up to $40. I couldn't find a 7" Beatles vinyl under $5 or a 12" Beatles vinyl under $28. But then again, that's The Beatles.
 
Those Beatles records better be in super clean condition for those prices! I've had a hard time selling VG condition original Captol/Apple Beatles 45s at $1.00 each these days. If they don't have their original picture sleeves or are in mint condition they're hard to move at any price. 45 Promos, EPs, Jukebox 33s, rare VJ/Tollie/Swan variants are the exception. Condition means everything, which also applys to the original US and UK/Import LPs. Dealers selling fleamarket grade or less Beatles records at inflated prices are out of their minds! This mentality has been going on for years......"but it's an original copy"......yeah totally trashed!
