Singles, LPs and a booth to listen in. Sell the record everybody heard on the radio last night.
Teenagers with wages come in on a Saturday for the single they heard on Radio Luxembourg, and play it in a listening booth before they buy.

Purchase tax sits on every record, few can be sent back, and an LP that does not sell is capital standing in a rack.
