When I was selling online my #1 rule was to NOT list any record that is cheaper than the shipping & packaging costs - that's totally ridiculous - who does that and why?? 😵💫 ...I just found The Aristo-Cats 45 last week @GW! It would be great to find the LP! (Still $1.99 for most LPs at my local GW - half-price the week that color tag is on sale)... I haven't pursued the estate sale thing - too many record collectors in my area of Pennsylvania! Found that out when I do yard/garage sales but I do get lucky sometimes! Even a blind squirrel finds a nut sometimes!
I've given up on the local Goodwills. I went the other day and the better LPs were $8.99 and will probably be thrown out when nobody buys them.
@@MikeFindsThings Yikes!
My mate wanted me to whistle on a song he wrote. I saw my whistling face and I was like nope I ain't pulling that face on stage lol.
Whistling on music annoys me anyway - thanks for not whistling!
Whistling faces are quite popular on dating apps and Instagram.
@@MikeFindsThingsI don't get it. I thought women hated cat calls! 🤔
For visiting Americans a guide to UK Sunday car-booting.
1. Set the alarm for 5.30 am. When it goes off spring out of bed and throw the bloody thing across the room and go back to bed till 10.30am.
2. If it's raining stay in bed.
3. If it's sunny stay in bed. This is the UK and it's sure to be raining within 30 minutes.
4. DO NOT take the wife. She will only spend the entire time complaining whilst you flick through the Val Doonican rarities. There's also the strong possibility she will buy a load of useless tat that she insists you can't do without even though you've got through the first 60 years of your existence without any of it.
5. Be prepared for disappointment. The last decent Northern Soul 45 was found in 1983. Every chance of coming across a Whistling Jack Smith but unless, like Mike you're as mad as a hatter, then best to leave it where it is.
6. Whilst perusing the records on sale take the time to reconsider your collecting habits. If you had not settled on collecting doo-wop, rockabilly, or soul and instead had gone for James Last you'd be making out like a bandit right now.
7. Return home ignoring the wife's pitying told-you-so looks and kid yourself that next week it will be different. Well, it'll still be raining !
The Whistling Jack Smith Lp was worth it for the story I found while looking it up. Played it for my daughter and she now gets angry when I threaten to play it again. There's definitely a reason I had never heard of it.
Does the lack of a liner detour you from buying a record?
I check the condition of the record. Sometimes people threw them out and only played the record a few times
