That’s exactly how we packaged them :heh:

We would sell everything too. I clearly remember Bonecrusher’s album being one of the hottest things for like two weeks
:dead:
Those 90's dancehall CD's would sell like hotcakes. If you had Murder She Wrote, Action, and Ting-a-ling on the CD it was a guarantee sell :mjlol:

Start up cost was nothing. I think a stack of blank CDs ran about $10. Made that back selling two CDs
After a couple months we reupped and bought one of those 3 at a time burners. Used a buddies copy machine at cingular to print the covers so we didn't have to come out of pocket :pachaha:....easy cash
