I miss the Audio classified ads of the 70's and 80's in the newspaper

I remember getting my Sunday paper and looking at all the ads in the audio classified section. They would have private party listings along with dealer listings and ads for new gear. Obviously this is before the Internet ever existed. Call me old fashioned but I really enjoyed those days.

Other than as nostalgia, not much I miss really from back then except some family and being a lot younger of course.

"I picked up a mint Dyna 70 and Pas-3 for four bucks one time. Bought a Marantz mono preamp for seven bucks. "

Right, I forgot I do miss the prices in the olden days as well.

You can still get lucky once in a while these days scoring cheap good old stuff off Craigs list, at yard sales, maybe even down at the Goodwill Store once in a while.   Lots of good sounding cheap old vinyl there just ripe for the taking.   More than ever before.
