i was actually going to start a post regarding the rising prices of new
records...
i bought them because a, they are actually quite good, b, i know i can
always sell them on ebay , c i am a vinyl junkie and i learned a lesson
along time ago to buy things when they come out or you will end up
paying twice as much.
i think ebay is the main culprit of rising prices of records to be
honest...
whenever i see someone selling records not on ebay....anything rare
nearly always has a 'bid' next to it and on further inquiries always
get a reply along the lines of 'this goes for £x on ebay so i cant let
it go cheaper than that)
i guess record labels want abit of the money that people will
inevitably get from buying them and then selling them immediately on
ebay.
having said that..i sell alot of stuff on ebay and buy alot of stuff on
ebay and without it i wouldn't have a quarter of the records i thought
i'd never be able to get hold of.
i dontmind spending 15 20 £ on a record. i can do that in a pub in an
hour and i get alot more satisfaction from listening to music...
