Best buy 180 gram records. Are they any good?

I saw some yesterday that were classics of coarse. Is the price of 24.00 an ok price for most of them?

I was thinking maybe 1 a month or two would be possible for me unless I sold something big.

    Stay away from the "Back in Black" series, I think they are Capitol label releases. For the most part these are pretty poorly done.

    I was thinking about that Dark side of the moon one I saw. It would be the first. I'll check it to see who makes it.

    Eh. A lot are the same that I can find at my local shop for cheaper. However the ones at Best Buy are no different than his however he has less of a mark up and normally carries more.

    I have a local record shop to. I'll compare his prices and selection. He mostly carries modern hard rock but he might have some classics.I always went in for cds mostly.
