You notice that when describing choice records from your collection to friends the words “precious,” “my own,” and “mine” keep popping out.
You hired a full time employee to clean and archive your records. You keep the ordering, shopping and listening duties!
...You sold your car just to buy a copy of the deluxe box for Wings At The Speed Of Sound. You are driving a lawn mower to work, but you've never appreciated the album any more than you do now!
...your car is down to one tire but you haven't missed out on buying a new Rhino release in three years!
I can not believe I just bought another copy of "Revolver"... at least this one is the rarest orange label ST-8-2576 Capitol Record Club issue. The only Beatles record club release on an orange label .. Longines Symphonette LP. That's 10 Revolvers ... SICK!
...you're convinced that only "irrational people" would be content to be stuck with just one pressing of an album.
...you've actually purchased a record store gift card for yourself! And, even more ridiculous, you actually spent it and convinced yourself you got the vinyl for free!
You Know You Have Too Many Records When.... ....you're planning a trip to England in order to come back with tons of vinyl records.... while you haven't had the time to listen to the records you brought back from your previous visit 2 years ago
...the sales taxes you have paid on record purchases has kept your state above budget for the last 30 years!
...you "roll the dice" every winter with your furnace, but dropped half a grand on the "Beatles In Mono" Vinyl Box like it was pocket change.
...you have a record collection insured in the millions inside of a house that is essentially held together by rubber cement!
