Multiple Copies Of LP s Same Title


A short note to see how perverse my record collecting is.

I have the worst habit of buying multiple copies of the same title especially if they are rare, and or sought after.

I feel that they are not going to get any cheaper, and there will be a day when we never see some of them again. If a rare LP is presented to me from my UK Sellers, and or found in the Shop's I just have to buy it (Regardless of how many copies I have).

I thought of this last night as I was play grading my third Atlantic Plum Label Yes - Fragile copy.

Just wondering if there are others like me out there.

Thanks,

David

Oh yeah, I own 5 copies of Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon", 4 copies of Paul Simon's "Graceland", 3 copies of Steely Dan's "Aja", 3 copies of Bruce Sprinsteen's "Born to Run", etc...I keep multiple copies around cuz I figure when one gets worn out I have back up copies, and I also own three turntables in three distinct systems so having extra copies comes in handy. The value on the open market of my vinyl really hasn't mattered too much to me since I bought it all purely for my own enjoyment, but I can see how people would be willing to pay a pretty penny for records. Analog may be a little finicky, but certainly worth the effort to my ears.
