please pause and do a little research before responding.

Neither cactuscowboy or vinyl1 mentioned selling a record as a primary goal. In fact cactuscowboy has a collection of over 20,000 LPs, 78s, 45s, etc, so selling is obviously not his main goal. He even does a radio show using part of his 78rpm collection. How many of us share our collections with others outside of the vinyl collecting world?

Vinyl1 has a collection of over 4000 records, so selling is not the only thing on his mind either.

I have a collection of over 10,000 LPs, and I have only sold one record on eBay.

What most of the inmates have in common is collecting records for personal enjoyment. If we can find them in good used condition for very little money by crate digging, then the thrill is even greater knowing the prices some of the records fetch on the auction sites and at dealers. The "thrill of the hunt" is part of the fun at estate sales, garage sales, junk stores, and storage auctions. My best jazz score ever was at an estate sale, and someone will probably love my estate sale as well.

So, please be cautious with quick judgements on the internet and just enjoy the thrill of collecting regardless of the source.
