I just replied to an ad in the paper yesterday for Edison records with the usual rare statement for $450. So I called wondering how many hundred there were for that price. There were 5 records. I dug a little deeper but nothing special. The guy was trying to tell me how old they were and they were a deal "at less than $100 each." I tried to explain they were fairly common, I had hundreds of them and they were probably only worth a few dollars each but he got mad and hung up on me.
