Anyone need to buy a copy of The Gold Experience?

Right now they have six used copies of TGE for sale here:

http://www.secondspin.com...?id=869710

I've done a lot of business with them, they're good, and they do ship outside the US.

Just a little public service here, seems like someone is always looking for this album.

i'm not keen on buying used discs over the internet. i want to look at the disc, to see if it's any better than the one i've already got. confused

wink Yes, that's why I put it here, hopefully the mods will leave it! I'm not selling anything myself, just tryin' to help a fellow orger. smile

Raze...no these are used CD's, but better than nothing if you don't have it at all! wink I've bought tons of stuff from them, can't recall ever getting a bad CD.

Doesn't 15.99 seem a bit pricey for a used CD of TGE? I'm sure you can find it new for much less elsewhere.

Not really. That CD, new, goes for quite a bit of money. Because it's out of print. It goes for about that (or more) used, usually.

nod Yup.

Though a couple of years back, I found a copy in a Hastings store (in Witchita Falls, TX!) for $4.99...I bought it and gave it to a friend in need. wink

Where's that? I'm nosey! lol

Yeah, they're still around. They're cool, but not as quirky as they used to be. But I have to admit I haven't been in one for almost 3 years now!

I remember in the mid 80's, buying some pretty off-the-wall stuff at Hastings in Lawton, OK when I was stuck out in that part of the country. lol

Though they've changed their look a bit over the years! "Boutique merchandise"? I guess that's one way to put it! lol

I, of course, like their used CD department best. biggrin
