OCCUPY Everyday Music

This sign was stuck to a phone pole across the street from my work:

We suspect it was a dude who claimed he forgot his a Kiss box set here after we made an offer too low for it. To cut a long story short, the dude went to the glass case where we keep some box sets, saw a Kiss box set and said it was his. We didn't give it to him. We have documented proof (dates and signatures) that it isn't his. The dude got mad and said he would stand outside our store and protest. Shucks. People were camping downtown in protest and all we got was a dumb cardboard sign.

Just to set the record straight: Everyday Music does not "steel" from people who bring their crappy, scratched-up, Garth Brooks CDs (that most likely skip, and were pulled out of a dumpster). Everyday Music pays for that trash and takes a loss. We will make an offer on just about any CD, DVD, Blu-Ray, VHS, LP, cassette, and 8-track (no burned cds, dvds, or copied cassettes)(all must have cases and artwork). It probably won't be for very much, though. A lot of this garbage will never sell. The company has a whole warehouse full of it. People get mad when we pay then a nickel for a VHS copy of E.T. then price it at 2 bucks. That's just business, honey. We'll pay you to give us your trash.

My rant is done. I apologize for the long post.

p.s. Everyday Music is having a box set sale starting on Wednesday through the weekend. 25% off used box sets! (LC)
