How many LP's do you own? How long did it take?


I started to collect vinyl in the late 80's, after it was demonstrated to me (to my ears) that vinyl sounded better than cds. I was fortunate at the time that people were dumping their vinyl collections. I was able to buy great LP's in mint condiiton for .10 cents each or so at garage sales...My have things hve changed. The vast majority of LPs I buy now are new and cost between $14 to $50 bucks each. Used LP'P's can go for more if its rare. So, how many LP's do you own and how long did it take you to amass your collection? I currently have about 2000 LPs.

Bought my first LP in 1975 in Plattsburg NY, Physical Graffiti by Led Zeppelin.
Was buying albums at a rate of about 5 to 6 a month till I bought my Proceed CDP. Slowed down buying LPs until I met up with Mike L where he opened up my ears as to what I had been missing for quite a few years.
Since then I have been buying both new and used Lps.
Some from the Sally Ann, garage sales, and our local music stores.
Unfortunately most of our good local music stores have had to close their doors so my purchases have slowed down accordingly.
Never counted how many I have but measuring them I have 22' 7" worth of Lps.
