Select albums from Tom Petty, Prince, Miles Davis, Def Leppard etc.

Evil Abed, other LA people pm me there were hundreds of copies

Heads up if you don't want people in records shops to laugh at you don't say "vinyls"

Great second post. Probably it was a typo and he was trying to type "vinyl."

I pretty clearly understood that but with the s making it plural it's incorrect. Not intending to sound belittling its just a common misconception that bothers me.

Hot water, much more Oxyclean than the label tells you, and lots of time.

My best ever such find was the Guidi bag I found. I purchased it in a little shop I randomly walked into while on vacation. It was in a bin with typical nylon travel bags and the like. I paid $3 for it and sold it for $1200. shog[1].gif

You have to quote the fit, though. The way it on him makes it twice as good.
