I gave up listening to vinyl about 2 years ago and one of the reasons was the poor quality of the lps. I’d buy something listed as VG or better and it would frequently arrive unplayable. I fought with a few dealers but that gets old.
I used to work in a record store in the 70s. Many of the new lps we sold were just awful and we were always fighting with customers over returns. I came to realize that many of the lps I was buying were those same lps, only someone played them for years, then probably stored them in basements or garages for a quarter century
before selling them off
