    A clue for you all… the walrus was Paul.


    It comes in a nicely finished Italian black anodized case and features a touch screen for control.

    Italian aluminum is the best.

    United Parcel Smashers for the fail!

    I'm guessing some extremely overpriced vinyl.

    Dang it, I got nuthin yet.

    You purchased 5 bucks worth of gold bullion... 😳
    You purchased something that cost you 5 dollars.

    Oh wait a second, you need a way of playing it first, you bought a turntable with 5 dollar gold worth int he 1900's.
    That would put the value @ approximately $600 to $1000 in today's coinage.

    A phono amp?

    Love this puzzle.
    Is what's coming bought for 5 bucks?

    Will half to weight for the next clue 😬

    No more clues needed... If you spend some time looking over the gold certificate, all you need is right there. Just for fun however...
