The Marquee Moon 30/30 Rule

So named by me after the Television LP I idiotically had on my wantlist for years and years but because I'm such a stingy dope, could never spring for.
It's never in the cutout bin and I'm a stingy dummy. So instead of paying $20-$30 for a record I KNEW I would 100% like, I kept buying other $3 or $4 records that I kind of 60% liked... but after I couple of listens didn't like much at all.... so I'd still spent the $30 and still didnt have a copy of Marquee Moon. So dumb. I do this all the time and I know it's dumb as hell.
In the end I splurged on a $30 copy of Marquee Moon and now think of it as worth about any 30 of my other records to me. The Marquee Moon 30/30 Rule.

I want to click two records. A safe bet and something a little less sure. Nice, new $25ish pressings or good condition used.
But alas, the option isn't there.

Looks like the idiotic OP pollmaker has WASTED 3 perfectly good option fields on silly little gimmick poll answers. Utter failure to read the potential answer paradigmatic diorama. PATHETIC.

Polling is hard. Marquee Moon is good.

Splurge on the clean Grail copy. Reissues need not apply!

I bought the reissue from several years ago. I wasn't aware it had gotten so expensive. It pulled a Trout Mask.

Five $10 records
But for the 100 records, is it a lot of 100 where we don't know the contents? Because odds are good there's some gems in there.
