that!

- I'm looking for one of
their records but can't find it in the shops. Where should I look?
A good
place to start is the Minestrone mailing-list where you will find many
10cc fans and some are willing to trade. Otherwise, try the on-line
second hand record dealers or search an auction site such as Ebay . With very rare items it will often take a lot of
time and luck, Don't give up too soon because any 10cc item is well
worth your trouble!
