Racks and stacks of old, dusty LPs can be found at every Goodwill, Salvation Army, and other various thrift stores from sea to polluted sea. But did you know you can also find the same ultra-valuable collector items on Craigslist?!
No horse shit, Jack. Looking for a water-damaged copy of Herb Alpert’s Tijuana Brass Whipped Cream? Craigslist! Interested in obtaining a backup Grease OST just in case you misplace your other two copies? Craigslist! Can’t live without those Barbra Streisand sleeves without any actual records inside of them? CRAIGSLIST, MOTHERFUCKER!
Plus, Craigslist (or more simply The List, as I call it) has the added benefit of being able to grip your Sesame Street and Christmas music rares from the basements of straight-up lunatics and shut-ins. Nobody can hear you scream there, which comes in handy when you’re overcome by the excitement of seeing those Dean Martin Greatest Hits albums in person (or when you’re being tied up by someone with crazy eyes). Oh yeah, the best part: You get to pay double, triple, or sometimes fadipple more dollars than you could at any junk shop, any day of the week.
Too good to be true? Proof can be found on the Facebook group Ridiculous Craigslist Vinyl Ads, where members post links to… ridiculous Craigslist vinyl ads. Rumor has it that a VG copy of Rumours could be found there for less than $20. (DIBS!)
