Got back into vinyl in 2000 ...

You could still find good VG++ to NM- legacy inventory for $1 to $3 on average ... but that's not the case today. More like $5 to $15.

Filling gaps in my collection requires me to peruse record stores who charge higher prices ... they are the only ones who have any inventory left in my part of the country. My collection is mostly done with some occasional gap fillers or artists that I'm interested in now but not back 10 years ago ... for example Talking Heads.

It's just Tom Port's Better Records is just an "outlier" to me.

Cheers.
