The 2007 Bad Gift Thread
53I beg to differ. When I was in high school, a couple of my cousins who happened to be born-again Christians, got me this record for Xmas:
I shit you not, I was like, "Uh.... thanks guys. What is this? Stryper? Isaiah 53:5... What is this? Uh... thanks guys. You didn't have to, really."
Later in the evening I put it on the turntable and my worst fears were confirmed. It has to be one of the worst albums I've ever heard. After listening to a few minutes of that garbage, I'd have begged for an Eagles record to play.
I took that record to a second-hand music store about a month later and they refused to take it. They wouldn't even give me a dollar for it. Believe me, I asked.

Don Henley, dude. No comparison. Besides, you can't turn on any radio station and here Stryper. Though, you can do that with the Eagles and have your day ruined immediately.

But $23,000 seems a bit excessive, especially for a replica.
Sure, sure, don't ever sell it. But insure it. Now. Some fat guy might sit on it someday.
