I gotta ask: how often are you buying new (to you) records? What are you doing with the ones you’ve previously acquired?
I used to have a pretty solid CD collection, but I kept them all in a binder that’s since been lost to time. Every once in a while I think about rebuilding a physical media collection and records are appealing. But we don’t have a ton of free space and I’m wary of storage. Records are also physically large, which seems like it would make buying/selling difficult unless you have a local scene you can trade through without needing to ship things.
But! I am only watching from the outside. Any insight you can offer would be appreciated.
I usually get one per pay check and I don’t get rid of them.
Sometimes people give me their collections or I buy them at garage or estate sales and I’ll pick out the ones I like there and sell the ones I’ll never listen to.
