Can't believe adults would send out the kids to shill for their products. And we had to go out by ourselves in those days...

lol
Right? These days you'd have to be escorted by a SWAT team around here

I found the irony almost unpalatable.......

Lol. I just looked them up on eBay.

I've bought used record players twice and neither one worked right, so I guess if I really want one, I'm going to have to fork out more money for a new one, or at least a reputable dealer of refurbished.
