Of course, "popular" stuff is not likely to go for a penny ... but if you pull up Amazon's listings for the "who are these guys?" albums, you can typically give them a listen (well, 30 seconds at a go) before bidding ... and I generally find that I'll bid on about 1 out of 3 things that I look at after sampling them on Amazon. Of course, it does help if one has some odd tastes ... I got 4 "world music", 2 "industrial/trance", and 4 "assorted rock" albums today. I did get out-bid twice (on a couple of other "world" albums), but I'll survive. Sure, with shipping it's a bit more than what I'd pay at the dollar store ($1.26 each as opposed to $1.10), but there is a hell of a lot better selection via "JayAndMarie" and I can check out what the acts sound like (courtesy Amazon). Ah, I just love a deal!
I love nice slow days on eBay ...
