I do. Sometimes I end up pawing through a whole bunch of stuff like Paula Abdul, Barry Manilow, Hanson and Milli Vinnilli without finding anything I have the remotest interest in buying, but sometimes I find albums I want that are dirt-cheap. Of course there's always the chance the CD, tape or record won't play well, but most of the time they are in decent shape - especially if it's a CD or tape. (It's virtually impossible to get used vinyl that doesn't skip once in a while when you play it).
Here's some of the best stuff I've picked up at Goodwill, garage sales and consignment shops:
The Pretenders - Learning to Crawl (tape)
Bruce Springsteen - Greetings From Asbury Park (tape)
The Police - Ghost in the Machine (tape)
Talking Heads - Remain in Light (tape)
Crowded House - Crowded House (tape)
Crowded House - Temple of Low Men (tape)
Cowboy Junkies - The Trinity Session (tape)
Public Enemy - Fear of a Black Planet (tape)
Neil Young - After the Gold Rush (tape)
Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms (tape)
Elvis Costello - All This Useless Beauty (tape)
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - Hard Promises (tape)
REM - Reckoning (vinyl)
REM - Life's Rich Pageant (vinyl)
REM - Dead Letter Office (vinyl)
Behind the Music - Soundtrack of Our Lives (CD)
Tom Waits - Rain Dogs (CD)
The Fugees - The Score (tape)
Lauryn Hill - The Miseducation of Lauren Hill (tape)
And then there was the most unbelievable bargain of all - U2 12-inch vinyl singles at a garage sale. They had New Year's Day, The Unforgettable Fire, Pride and Out of Control! The total price for all four - $2. I still can't get over that particular find.
