No, I know nobody in Orange County. I'm over at Complete in Hollywood, and unfortunately, we're all full up at the moment. If anything, business is a little slack at the moment, but I expect it to pick up in a couple of weeks. Times be tough all over. All…

If they were new about $50 each. The trouble with auction tape is why most pros won't touch it. You don't know whether it sat out on a frozen loading dock overnight, or whether is was in a 160 degree boxcar for several days. Any of which could affect its…
