There have been a few records from Tim's old collection that have carried a higher price tag than I'm used to spending, and I've been on the fence if I should pull the trigger on them or not. In every instance where I stepped up and threw money out the window for a classic record, like Social Distortion or Minor Threat, I've never regretted the decision... while I still kick myself for letting The Smiths Hatful Of Hollow with a misprint sleeve go because I thought it was too expensive. So when I saw the first Bad Religion EP 12 inch available from Tim's collection, I again started wringing my hands over the price.
The Bad Religion EP is such a classic punk record and one that I needed in my collection regardless of the price. The original 7 inch pressing of this carries a much higher price tag, and while the 12 inch reissue from 1984 is still expensive, it is a price that I am much more comfortable paying.
I was really not going to find this record in better condition, so it was money well spent.
