Vinyl sale
I wonder will there by many or even any takers for this collection? I doubt it - the amount of money being asked for, even the minimum amount, is way too high for even the most serious - and wealthy - collectors. 8,000 records is also a hell of a lot to sift through to find the gems that undoubtedly lurk therein. Given that the owner has stated that there are some ultra-rare records, eg early Trax, DJ International etc, he would probably make far more money auctioning them off individually online, where the market for first and rare pressings is still lucrative. Unfortunately for him though, the rest of the collection will probably have to be sold down at his local second-hand record store.
Richard has taken them down now, too much madness I guess.

I think the amount of grief he got for this was totally unwarranted...

spot on, there was some seriously cringeworthy "serious internet business" being dished out on RA yesterday.
