    no shit, but just curious where you found a Boscoe in the dollar bin.

  • Yeah they are the AJ3 Jordan Pack Dunks....

    I like those Jordan Pack 2s...but I don't really like the original Air Jordan 2....more of a 1, 3, 4, 5 guy myself. I like the black heeled AJ1 dunks that dropped too!

    Used dollar bins are ok for finding stuff sometimes but I'm not worring about what I left behind. It's the 5&dime dollar bins I wish I had worked harder. '82 I was taking some classes at Galludet in DC. I'd stop in this liquor store once a week to buy a record, Lynn Collins Think, JBs Pass The Peas, another JBs I think, A Parliment and Smoky Quite Storm, maybe some gospel records too. I know there were multiples of all that stuff plus lots and lots of Redd Foxx records. Were there Brockingtons, Rudy Ray Moores, Andrew White? I don't know probably.

    In Portland about the same time this basement TV repair shop had gospel records. I bought a few good ones but could only afford 3 or 4 a year.

    A few years later Peaches in Seattle had a blow out of really good records, a lot of Japanese P-Vine titles. I only had the money to cop a few. About '88 I hit the Tower Records cut out store in NYC. Lots of Folkways and New World titles plus who knows what. I remember I spent a fortune and walked out with a big stack, Maybe $20 10 - 15 records, I thought I was a baller.

    When I opened my shop in '90 I had to secret spots. The first was Fred Meyers where they had a rack that always had 2 or 3 Norman Connors Slewfoot and I forget the couple of good titles there. Then there was a second floor warehouse near the Burnside Bridge, They had stacks of Clones Of Dr Funkenstein, Brides Of Funkenstein, MEco, Traveres, Bt Express, Brass Construction and on and on like that. I'd spend 50 - 100 a month at a dollar a record. It burnt down before I was finished clearing it out. They also had this Elvis Book that was set up kinda like a scrap book, I sold a stack of those too for a nice markup.

    It's that liquor store in DC that haunts me.

    Not that anyone asked, but that shopping cart is
    all tricked out & customized:

    We'd opt for some 20-inch dubs ourselves, but this bad boy has GPS,
    a mini-fridge, AM/FM cassette stereo, LCD screen with TV tuner, can crusher[/b],
    alarm with strobe lights, a tent, solar powered battery charger, and a slide
    out seat.
