	Magic Marmalade If you're not lost... It's not an adventure! Member since Jun 2014 3774 Points Moderator	I've Got twenty quid to hand for the purpose, which I intend to spend on Friday or Saturday in the Cheriddy Shops. I've latched onto the cult of NOW! (That's What I call Music) CD albums... terrific cash cow item. Find a few regularly in the cherridies: Strong collectors market, the music has mass/broad appeal, and they sell... .. seems the first twenty are worth buying when you see them (4 (You should be so lucky!), 8, 9, 10-19)). On a different note: ..I take it all back about the boot -fair vinyl market, had a terrifically satisfying day at a boot-fair yesterday. I had all but given up on vinyl, and so went with the intention of buying loads of digipack CDs; As last time I went to get vinyl, only one box of albums in the whole fair... but truck loads of CDs. However... curiously, this time was the exact opposite: Loads of vinyl, but slim pickings on the CD front (Nothing I was after anyway), No spectacular finds as far as rarity or anything, but I got a few items that I like, and hadn't thought I'd be able to get outside a record dealer's shop: Kate Bush: The Kick Inside (Original LP, Mint) (50p) Queen: A Day At The Races, and: Jazz (Both Excellent) (£1 each... Won't grumble) Peter Gabriel: (Third Album) Gerry Rafferty: City To City Wings: At The Speed Of Sound ...These three 20p each, and in excellent condition Genesis: Wind and Wuthering (Turned Out to be German Copy, and but for a slight abrasion on the front cover top right... All but Mint) (50p) And Took a punt on an Elvis Album: Blue Hawaii (£1) (Not really that knowledgeable on his albums, but I don't (Didn't) own anything by him, so could overlook the slightly tatty cover) So armful of records for under a fiver! (immensely happy about having Kate Bush and Rafferty albums on vinyl at last!)
