CEDAR RAPIDS � The record is back.
Susie Dale, of Cedar Rapids, said the man who purchased her husband Pat�s 1977 �Kiss Alive II� album, autographed by Gene Simmons, showed up before 8 a.m. today to her garage sale and returned the album in exchange for the $2 he paid for it on Friday.
�He brought it back, so that was very nice,� said Dale. �And, he would not take the $50.�
Dale had offered to buy the record back for that amount and also joked she�d throw in her old treadmill, which also is for sale.
�He would not take the treadmill,� Dale said, noting she�s slashing prices at her sale today.
�Valuable stuff is $2, everything else is free,� she joked. �The treadmill is �I give you $2.��
Dale said the man who returned the album wished to remain anonymous and she has no idea where it is now.
�Pat took it and went in the house,� she said.
