Thrift store/used bin finds

Thrift store/used bin finds

I’m fond of hitting up the thrift stores and used bins in the record shops for great deals. Today was a particularly good day, especially with the Stax records dual disc for $5 and Kurtis Blow for $1

What have you found?

Kurtis BLow!!! Yeah!

My son actually scored that one. :smiley:

So I walk into Goodwill and take a gander at the electronic shelf full of junk

See anything that catches your eye?

How about a Shure PG58 for $1.50?

thats awesome! even if it was broken those are super easy to fix! nice find!!

i see a hard drive tooo

Wow, that Shure just caught attention as soon as I laid my eyes upon the picture.

Even better that it works great.

My eye went to the device right above the Microphone. I’m sure it’s one of those spinning devices they use on CSI to determine molecular constitution of crime scene debris. :slight_smile: Nice finds BTW.

PS 2 weeks ago I found a nearly mint copy of the Best of Donna Summer on vinyl for .50 cents. I Feel Love

Not really a thrift store, but I was up late refreshing craigslist looking for DJ gear when an ad for two SL-1200 MK2’s + Vestax PCV-275 Mixer popped up for $250 bucks.

Didn’t even hesitate to call the guy at like 2:00 in the morning.

Did you get it? That’s nuts. I’d pick that up in a heart beat!

I’m driving out tonight to pick them up. I’ll let everyone know how it goes.

Even if they’re wonky, they’ll be better than the Numark tt1520’s i’m using now.

Screw the mic i’d go for the sandwich toaster!!!

In all seriousness the best find for me was a few years ago. me and the mrs were out for day and we ended up at this little village that had a church record/book fair.
I ended up with 3 records for £1. An album called big wheels of motown, A mint copy of Thriller.
The mrs put her foot down tho and ended up with a london boys album:eek:

…is that a dj mouse on the upper right?

:wink:

LOLOLOL!!!

That Kurtis really tries to look tough but Blow? Are you serious?! I would like to see the track list for some Kurtis Blow Ft. Joe Blow - “Blowing each other”

And the 50 cent cassettes I need to digitize.

Damn these tapes bring back memories. :smiley:

I figured you were a big John Denver fan :wink:

I’ve got 2 shoeboxes full of them to digitize, along with 4 records boxes of vinyl. There always seems to be something a hell of a lot more interesting to do though.

Hahaha… I am a photojojo fan now bro’! :wink:
