My Girlfriend Got "Kerplunk" for $0.25

[Iscariot]

At a garage sale. I only posted this here because I was wondering if this was a good deal? Considering it was released in 1991 I'd have thought someone would charge more than a quarter for it.

Anyway, discuss cool pop-punk stuff you've found at garage sales.

[Reywas]

0.25 is insane.You're girlfriend is lucky as hell.

[Gnarmageddon]

$0.25 for any CD is a good deal. Old Green Day is pop punk at its finest.

[DJ Ducksauce]

That's nice. Who in there right mind would sell Kerplunk for $.25?

At our last garage sale, we sold some Backstreet Boys CD's for $.50. I don't remeber anyone buying them though. Not surprising. :p

[Hep Kat]

That's a very good deal.

[bottlerocket]

That's a good deal, as long as it's not scratched or anything...

Even if it was a "crappy" deal, it's only $0.25...:lol:

who would put a dollar sign in front of .25

[Ross]

After Americana, my first CD was Dookie. I picked that up, mispriced in WHSmiths in Newcastle for £3.

Possibly a defining moment in my life :)

[bottlerocket]

Even if it is.. thats like $.025 for a coaster.

...And we all know how expensive coasters are.

[Fish]

[B]

Even if it doesn't work, it's a cheap frisbee.

[B]

SOP: I think we gave them away for our churches garage sale. :p

[B]

[DJ Ducksauce]

Or Cool Discus. :cool:

[B]

That too.

[Chilly-Bean-Bop]

I can't find any store that can sell good band/concert swag for a cheap price.

I got an Alk3 jacket at their concert for $35. Meh.

[Pazz]

At first when I saw this thread, I thought it was the game.

Buy online from http://www.interpunk.com

[DJ Ducksauce]

There's a game Kerplunk?

[Chilly-Bean-Bop]

I know, but I don't like buying online.

Its totally easier just buying from the store and saves more time. Maybe not money, but time.

I know, it's hard finding good clothes in stores though. Especially living in Canada where half the mainstream bands here are shitty Canadian "punk" bands, and "gangsta" rap.

[Chilly-Bean-Bop]

Canada is better than Florida. :thumb:

Yeah, I getcha. Hey, I gotta question: Why is everything more expensive in Canada?

Sum 41 FTW!

No clue. Unless it's just because our currency is worth less. But stuff is still more expensive taking that into account. Probably because we have to import it. Even though there's free trade so that shouldn't matter.

Sum 41 FTW!
Meh, they're ok. I used to like them, There's way worse though.

It's not out of print...

He didn't say it was. I admire your reading ability though.

oic.

/has no idea what you just said

[B]

oic

:(

[DJ Ducksauce]

He's saying CD are worth less than USD.

Also they have to pay extra taxes and stuff from importing items, but there are no taxes between US, CA, and Mexico, so that probably isn't the reason.

Brandon: I still like them. One of my first pop-punk bands. I listen to a lot of mainstream though.

[Chilly-Bean-Bop]

I'll figure it out someday. Who knows, I might end up living there. But, hey, thanks for trying anyways.

Justin: STOP POSTING AT THE SAME TIME AS ME, GOD!

[DJ Ducksauce]

lawl, but 8:55 doesn't = 8:56. :p

I don't really, I guess. I mean, I'm all xscenex and listen to scene bands, but here they aren't mainstream so I don't know :-\

Close enough. :)

Really? I thought they'd be played a lote since they are from Canada. I've heard We're all to Blame, Pieces, Hell Song, and Still Waiting, oh and Fat lip and In Too Deep on the Radio before here.

1. Don't patronize me, I've been posting here much longer than you have.

2. Re-read what he said, especially the part where he said that he assumed it would have been more expensive since it came out in 1991. Therefore, when I said "it's not out of print," it was obviously referring to that statement--if it's in print, then it shouldn't matter when it came out because it's not rare.

[CommieCanada]

i got the Buzzcocks, Ted Leo and the Pharmasists, Atom and His Package, and The Clash all on vinyl for like $.20 at a sale once

Wow, now that is a good buy. I haven't seen any decent CD's at a garage sale before. :( Too bad I don't have a record player also.

1. I really don't care.

2. Things that have been around longer tend to be harder to find, even if they aren't out of print, do you really think that the label still prints as many copies of Kerplunk now as they did in '91, because I sure don't.

Vinyl is where its at dude

[DJ Ducksauce]

Yeah, I know. I don't see many stores that sell them though. Last I saw was a Rancid-AOCTW at a Hot Topic and you know how expensive those are. And where the heck can you buy a record player nowadays?

i got mine at a thrift store

[LSD]

who would put a dollar sign in front of .25

seing as though $.25 means 25/100 dollars ?

[bottlerocket]

^ No it doesn't. The decimal point is there, which means it's 1/4 of one dollar. The notation is right, so why are we making a big deal of it? :lol:

25 cents = $0.25

He was right. If it just said $25, it would mean there were twenty-five whole dollars.

I meant listening to mainstream, not Sum 41 being mainstream. They get a lot of play here usually.

[young, loud, and andrew]

No, I changed my username. I was punkerx99 since '02.

You can find copies of Kerplunk and 1039 at Best Buy, my friend. Now that I think about it, the original 1039 is probably out of print because they just re-released it with different packaging.

If you guys want to find cheap cds, you should buy used on Amazon.

Actually, I still see Kerplunk around alot at alot of different CD stores.

EDIT: Jared, does your girlfriend have a good personality?

Yeah, same here, I bought it at the local FYE.

[young, loud, and andrew]

Now that I think about it there were probably less copies of Kerplunk floating around in '91 because Look Out! and Green Day were both very very small.

I just got 39 Smoothed and Kerplunk on vinyl, and I'm pretty stoked about it.

Also, you said that things that have been around longer are harder to find. Let's think about that for a second: what are you more likely to find in a Best Buy or Virgin Megastore- The Beatles' White Album or a new release froma smaller band?

[billiejoe84]

And to think, I paid £14 for Kerplunk.



:angry:

I wouldn't know, all the best buys and such here sell **** all for cds so I never go there. Although I'm sure it'd be the Beatles, which I imagine is your point. But if it were a smaller local cd store, it'd be the small new band.

To be honest I don't really care, I was merely pointing out that he never said anything about it being out of print.

[bassist_for_a_band]

Holy crap dude... I love Kerpunk. All the stores around here have that any any other GD cd $10 or more...
