So, my wife tells me two Friday mornings ago "there's an estate sale in our neighborhood, wanna go check it out?"
30 Minutes and $3.50 later I'm back at home with a mint first edition copy of Elvis Presley's debut record, The Beatles Magical Mystery Tour album, and a couple of James Dean/Natalie Wood numbered picture disks, an Abba record, and a double record "Studio 54" disco compilation.
Researched eBay "sold" auctions and I came up with anywhere between $400-$800 worth of total value for the lot (mostly the Elvis & Beatles record).... No scratches on any of the records, but some could use a very good cleaning.
