    You know you have a problem if you have to reinforce the floor in your home to support the weight of a vinyl collection!

    I dunno I feel like the snark and attitude wasn't necessary. I mean he had the whole collection organized, it's not like it's an episode of hoarders. And yea I can see it being annoying and reinforcing the floors is a deal but if thisI dude was wealthy his collection probably would've been handled by a museum or something.

    Remarkable story, shame it will be sold in lots. It may be a little unusual but remarkable dedication. 27k records. Wow

    If you were referring to me, I was totally kidding. That is quite an impressive collection.

    No not you @WhatYouTaughtMe , the brother who was quoted and the writer of the article. Sorry, reading my comment back now I realize I was not at all clear on that, I mentioned the floors cuz that does seem like a huge construction project (I truly know NOTHING about that stuff though) and building shelves ain't really all that impressive. I could build a shelf if I wanted to.

    Oh I see. Wasn't sure. Just the magnitude of the collection would be incredible to stand next to. I think it's remarkable and should be respected.
