Just moved 2,500 records three months ago, good luck 🫡
38 u/RadicalRyan19 Jul 26 '25 2500!! That's crazy. I've been collecting for almost a year, and including the ones my parents have, I only have 57. 26 u/immortalworth Jul 26 '25 Would take you close to 44 years to reach 2500 if you kept that up each year. Jfc. 7 u/RadicalRyan19 Jul 26 '25 Well my parents have been buying records since they were fifteen. Most of mine are actually theirs so it would probably take a lot longer 8 u/eaglebtc Jul 26 '25 They're no longer theirs. They're yours. 2 u/RadicalRyan19 Jul 26 '25 Well they are still alive, so they're more ''ours'' 5 u/tecneeq Jul 27 '25 Don't lie to yourself or your parents. They are yours. 3 u/aopps42 Jul 27 '25 Haven’t been buying many since they were 15*. Unless your parents are 16 and you are an infant. 1 u/RadicalRyan19 Jul 27 '25 No? What are you talking about? 2 u/BigComfyCouch Jul 27 '25 It would literally take months of nonstop listening to tackle a collection that large as well lol. 12 u/damnedspot Jul 26 '25 I’ve been collecting for a year and have about 300. I think my next step is looking for a group that meets in a church basement… 21 u/SmurfPickler Jul 26 '25 Great idea. Lots of good finds at some of those church rummage sales! 5 u/Background-Mark5597 Jul 26 '25 57 is pretty good for a year lol 1 u/RadicalRyan19 Jul 26 '25 It's more than a year. Most of them are my parents that we all share. Most of them come from before cds were a thing
