[QUOTE="all_fakes, post: 348321, member: 55"]I don't post in this thread a lot, in part because I don't buy for resale. But I do enjoy - among other things - browsing the CD section at the Goodwill. I often find things that I like to listen to, or replacements for some of my LP records that are either scratched or just taking up space.
