I posted about this in 2015 and you responded.

One rationale for the cost of the rack you referenced ($4000 to hold ~500 LPs) is that it is or was manufactured in Brooklyn, where costs of doing business are presumably high. Yet, I recently had a record rack custom built for me by a furniture company in Brooklyn; it holds 800 LPs and cost $800. Looks a lot nicer than the IKEA competition, as well. (Cherry veneer on plywood).
Indeed!
That thing and Bybee "room neutralizer" are my go-to "wtf are you thinking" to illustrate just throwing away money.
Although I DO qualify the room neutralizer statement because I've never heard an actual before and after so... yeah. But still... plastic box with a wire dangling out of the bottom.
But the record storage cart is truly ridiculous beyond all ridiculousness. MAYBE if it's an art object and I'm a big fan of the artist I can see the appeal. But that would be because there are enough other maniacs around that would drive the price up or a least keep it the same. If that's the case with this and I'm just not familiar with the artist, then I take it back.
