Does 'Amen Brother' exist in NM condition?

Serious question.
I must've found this 45 dozens of times in the past, as well as seeing copies online and the best I've ever come across (which is also the one I currently own) is a VG+
Surely for a record as kinda-common as this, there must be NM copies out there somewhere?

What else never gets found in NM condition? (reggae 45s, this does not include you)

    Not sure what precisely constitutes NM, but my copy is pretty pristine.

    Breakaway Records in Austin seems to always have a copy or 2 of Amen Brother in stock, in great condition at around $8.

    BTW, I've been interested by the stuff on yer soundcloud (as RQ_) - but it sounds like you've had a longer career in dnb... have you ever used the Amen?

    Thanks, but no... like I said, I've only ever found this record in - at best - VG+. Never found an unplayed, shiny NMer

    Recently yes Ketan!


    and of course during the infamous 'Jungle Wars', but I had to get it off my soundcloud to make room for some new stuff.

    some old school 'Good Looking' vibes. It was super fun to make.

    Considering that it was the B-side of a massive hit record ("Color Him Father"), it should be selling for far less than $8.

    That's really good. It's hard to beat the rammin' amens.

    isn't it crazy how sometimes a common record sells for higher prices than it should because people really want it for some odd reason??
