record show experiences

czarivey,
Why didn't I think of that? I have a little stack of MOFI's and other gems that I've been wanting to take to the shows.

That would also help with another issue that crops up every once in awhile, and that's theft. There are just too many opportunities for that sort of thing. Naturally, the high-priced stuff is what they want to grab.

I'm funny that way- if it is a pricey record, I ask the vendor to handle it. I don't want to make a stupid mistake with an item that is not mine--not that it happens often (now I'll jinx myself)- but that would suck! I was sort of the same about test driving high end cars- I'd ask the dealer/seller to drive it- I'd ride shotgun, and if, overall, I liked it, and it passed a PPI (often older cars at the time I bought them) , I would then drive it before the check was cut.  

Fisher Price .... LOL..!!

I never thought about people going through records and potentially damaging them.
