bargin bin record finds

[7875]

well, i seem to find more and more great music in the oddest places. being that i am on a tight budget and make a shit wage at my current retail bit, finding great tunes for nothing is a favorite hobby. recently i've found the following.
-Cristian Vogel 'Take No More' with the remixes by Si Begg and
Senor Liddel for $5 bucks used
-a Justin Berkovi off of Force Inc. from a few years back that just
fucking rocks for $5 bucks used
-a cd copy of Meat Beat Manifesto's 'Storm the Studio' which to my knowledge is out of print for $6 in a used cd bin
_the Smith's 'Queen Is Dead' (a french pressing) that had appearently been played maybe only once or twice being that the vinyl was in such good shape for only $1.99 at a Goodwill (chain thrift store here in america)
_Souixsie and the Banshees 'Hyena' for $1.99 at that same spot the day i found the Smiths record

i may be devoid of luck in other aspects of my life but i always seem to be able to find good music for very cheap.
any of you have any good finds recently??

[namshub]

YAY souxsie and tha banshees!! i just hope the records were'nt nicked from sum poor musik lover... op shop record shopping is like zen meditation to me.... retail therapy. 30c records - bring it on!!!!

[karitek]

yeah, i seem to be pretty lucky when it comes to record huntin...
my fave recent finds were
jamie lidell - only for the money in the music and record exchange 50p bargain basement and a load of old 2cb and godfather records 3 for $10 in sonic groove's used bins. great fun.

[bigblacksexcop]

i have found too much good stuff in bargin bins to list here,,but then again the main music shop we have here nothing but one whoppin big bargin bin..the last score was Global Goon-Cradle of History fer eight kiwi smackerz :)

[Ava]

my best charity shop record finds:

1.bbc 'trams' record. basically, a load of recordings of different types of trams, with commentary. one of a series of six, including traction engines and canal barges.

2. now 1 - its got ghostbusters, prince, and chaka khan on it.

both 50p.

techno-wise, my best purchase was dean and deluca - untitled on m-plant. one of my favourite-est techno records and it only cost 2 quid.

[k-dub]

Thrifty finds...

Recently... a couple of Justin Berkovi records for around $3, a bitchin' Conga Squad EP for $4 that totally rocks.

I wonder what it feels like to find your own record in the used bin? I can't wait til that day. I was thrilled when I found out people were sharing some of my tunes on Audiogalaxy...

[professor]

a classmate sold me the "music for the jilted generation" lp from prodigy on vinyl and the "jerricho" for less than normal price!
i´ve paid only 25 euro

[Atarythm]

My best find is surely :

Peacefrog 44 - Neil Landstrumm - Inhabit the Machine...
Found for 12 CHF in a little store in Geneva in spring 2000...

[nimmina]

years ago i found in a record store in zurich drought 04, subhead 13, sativae 07, 2cb for only 5 swiss francs for one record. they sold all that sativae, drought, mosquito stuff for only 5 swiss francs, because nobody bought this kind of music...

[bigblacksexcop]

thrift scoop report
today I got
Dave Clarke Electroboogie2 fer 10 smackeroos
and(insert fanfare here)
Blake Baxter Dreamsequence3 2cd..fer six yes six NZ$
even i hate myself for that one cause it is worth so much more..
but that's the advantage of living in the city of infinite house...
nightlife is disco bollocks..but great electronic music ends up in cheap bins

[V Knid esq]

I'm no believer in karma, but... last summer I finally got round to weeding out a load of dodgy old '92 progressive house and other cheesy items from my collection. I took 3 or 4 big bagsfull down to the Age Concern charity shop at the bottom of my street. In the rest of that afternoon I found a French vintage Afro-funk compilation (not released in this country), a Compost recs triple 'nu-jazz' compilation (ditto) and King Tubby Meets Rockers Uptown, each for between £4 and 5... PLUS a bunch of techno and d&b 12" including 1 Mauruzio and 4 <u>mint</u> condition early Reinforced releases for 99p each.

[Sheridan]

I just cleaned out the record store here when they had a 50% off sale on old stock items. got 12 techno tracks for 60 dollars american.
I also found a split second neurobeater for cheap once.
and my recent gem, an original pressing of miles davis' bitches brew
on mint vinyl for FREE from my friend back home.

[k-dub]

*** CHECK THIS!!!! *** - last night I got a copy of "Better Off Alone" by Alice Deejay for 25 CENTS!!!!

I haven't decided what to do with it yet. Maybe I should go back and get the other copy for 25 cents and play them both simultaneously, but slightly offset.

[jukka]

@k-dub: you lucky guy, a copy of alice deejay-better off alone.really hard-to-find record.lol
once i found a copy of robert hood-nighttime world vol.1 for only 5 dm and kraftwerk-die mensch-maschine for 7 dm (??), can't remember....at a video-tape library.

[7875]

once found a copy of 69's 'lite music' for 3 bones?
why, oh why did i trade it away???

[cut out]

i got autechre's first e.p. 'cavity job' about 7 years ago for 50p. will soon be selling it on ebay, hopefully for an obscene profit.

[Ruben A]

last saturday I found:

Drought 02
Cristian Vogel - Specific Momentific lp.
Mr. Velcro fastener - Wad ep (love it. !!)
some Bolz bolz... and others.. all very cheap!!

nice..

[jukka]

i just picked up i-f--man from the pack, kraftwerk--computerwelt and claude young--patterns the album on cd for 22€ alltogether :)

[Sheridan]

the man from pack, that is such a good record.

[7875]

its funny that someone renewed the thread because i went shopping today and found more gems...
finally, after looking for many years i found a copy of Si Begg
'Working On The Front Line ep' (mosquito 10)!
a 212 productions record called 'Handiwork' that i've also been
looking for for years that has an awesome Cari Lekebusch remix
for 2.00!!
Thomas Heckman on DJAX 'Kobol Tracks No. 1' for 4.00 (came with
two copies for doubling up)
and a '95 DJAX by Frank de Groot called 'Psylocybe' for 2.00

[wired]

hehe yes, nice that someone re-activated it... i made some great deals, too...

i got scandinavia 01, 03 and 08 plus subvoice15 (subhead) for 55 euro including shipping from spain to me... when i remember what some guys payed for one of these records on ebay... hehe i got them very cheap...
then i got framework 1, 2, 3 and 4, unplayed, for 4 euro complete via ebay...
msq03 for 10$
bolz bolz's album on feis for 5 euro...

this summer is really good for collecting some nice records...
but, what do you (all) think... doesn't it look like the old hippie's who search for old records in old shops, what we do? :-))))))))

anyway, a good time to get some rare rec's for nearly nothing

[old skool]

I've just bought two cd's from Ebay, a DJ Hasebe album from 2000 and a Novophonic compilation from 2001 both for £0.01 each !!!

Obviously you have to stick a quid on each one for postage but what the fuck's all that about then ?

[wheezer]

anybody know
v/a - birth of a nation part ii - black nation 190?
it was released in 96, I remember hearing it a party coz a good friend played it and he also mentioned he got the last copy around here...
well 5 years later I found that piece of 12", when I was least expecting it, in a kompakt sale box... that feeling beats most e's I've had :D

[old skool]

You'd better get a new dealer mate ;-))

[old skool]

Oh and another bargain, Rob Hood - Nightime World (cd) for £2...

[wheezer]

@oldskool

might be, what with me living in finland I'm likely to only get second-rate russian mob produced stuff lol

[old skool]

Second rate drugs produced by Russian mobsters sounds a lot better than anything a Scouse gangster produces from a Liverpool factory using cement mixers and a couple of test tubes .... fucking cheap though .... :-)

[wheezer]

well at least the russian mob makes for more interesting newspaper articles - they find some poor idiot to drive a car and just load it to the roof with every drug in existance it seems, and every 10th guy or so gets caught, with lovely listings such as "xx hash, xx heroin, xx speed, xx ecstasy found in car".

there's the rumor going around that the mob just sends people to finnish prison so that they get an education and good connections to the local market hehe

[jukka]

today i picked up a copy of s.i. futures-the mission statement and herbert-bodily functions for 8 € each.....and i-f--fucking consumer is waiting for me.
