Depends on what record store you go to. If you're looking for comps with well known breaks, they're easy to find. Generally under "Various" or sometimes "Beats & Breaks". I'm talking a place like Tower and whatnot.

If you're going to a used record store, specifically a well known one, don't go in there and say "hey, I'm a producer and I'm looking for some breaks", because most likely if they know what a "break" is, they may charge four times the price on the record already. Keep in mind that a lot of classic 45's aren't just going to be found like that, however if you keep on looking you *may* stumble upon it.

Fortunately, for those who don't collect and dig for records as a hobby, you can seek compilation LP's CD's as the next best thing. In truth, sound is sound, so just make the most of what you have, regardless of how you got it.
