HA! The logic sounds a bit backwards, but it's still funny.

My book shop is next door to a heritage/vintage/thrift shoppe.  Our front
entrances are similar.  I'll get people half-open my door and mutter "Wrong
store."

I should put up a sign, "See next door for wong foo king store"

Cussler's are desirable, especially the early hardcovers, or 1st editions.  A
local shop may like to take them off your hands for a small bounty.

Unless you have some Beatle's or Elvis in your vinyl collection, the going rate
seems to be about $100 for a milk crate full.

LPs from 80 years ago would be recordings in the 40s?  Check places like
discogs.com for anything similar.
