I have yet to work out why he is doing this other than to own all of the vinyl records in the world which will never happen as there are people (me) who would never sell some their collections, also new vinyl is being released all the time.

One day I will post a few pictures of my media-room. I have the room dedicated to my CD/DVD/blu-ray, VHS and Vinyl collection.
I see no end to my collecting, another property with a larger media-room is becoming a real need (already looking for a new abode).
In contrast I have a friend who is going the digital route where possible, although a recent purchase of 'Larks Tongues in Aspic' Super Deluxe Box Set kind of means he will have some physical products.
EC, I don't know if the Brazilian businessman got the records from the Birmingham shop.
The closing down sale went ahead:

I still have, not only all MY vinyl, but all of my parents' 'hard' 10 and 12 inch '78s.
And the old radiogram we played them on as children!
Very impressive Fluffy, is the radiogram electric? Don't laugh, as kids we had the old wind-up one which my parents had replaced. It was hysterical when it wound down and the voice got deeper and deeper

Yes. it was electric. I know what you mean though. Sometimes we'd play the 78s at 45 rpm.
I also had a 'toy' record player that ran on batteries and we got the slower deeper effect when the batteries were running out.
The record player part still works, but the valves that allowed the radio to broadcast are all dead now.

Cheers El. I did not continue the story of the Birmingham shop through to find out what happened.
