OHNONOTHIMAGAIN!

One of the most over-rated self-important accumulators of records 
anywhere, he's been trying to hawk this overpriced stash for a few 
years now. I had shopped at his store when it located above the post 
office on McKnight in Pittsburgh. The CD Jewel Cases all add these 2 
inch x 2 inch yellow stickers on them that you could not even remove 
with acid! and if memory serves, he values his OOP vinyl at a min of 
$5, plus $1 for every year old it was.

I have to wonder how much of his stuff was a) received as freebies as 
a record dealer, and b) bought at wholesale prices as store stock
