 hey man, its exposure!
 
 (i like the kumquat cd, or most of it, quite a bit.  it is silly as hell,
 fun as a duck and fits in quite nicely with land of the loops, sukpatch,
 le tone and other childish junk.)

This is the stupidest thread in a while.
Anybody defending selling a CD second hand for reasonable prices
has absolutely no need to defend it.
If people have a problem with this, why don't you rag on the labels
who sell 7" to us at $10 new, the distributors who put a 50-60%
mark-up on things, etc.
90% of the music in this scene is overpriced, new or used,
don't give somebody shit for selling a CD they don't want anymore
at a totally reasonable price. And even if it's unreasonable, 
it's second-hand, it's theirs, they can sell it for whatever they want.
It has nothing to do with a lack of morals. 
Of course, young students always like to appear ultra-ethical.
