OK Buddy, Where Do I Find This Stuff?

First off - use UPC's and ASIN's for searching through Google/Froogle, Half.com, Amazon's Marketplace, and Yahoo! Shopping.

eBay has worked once or twice for me, make sure to search in "title and description" for "tiki tones," "huntington cads," and/or "swamp zombies."

Remember - Most sellers don't know what they have and/or know who Shag is - all they want to do is make a quick buck or two selling used CDs/LPs.

The most I've paid for any of this? Maybe $20.00 and that was for a pristine copy of the SZ's "Fink" LP.
