    We got $1000 from our provincial government in December, a few days later the hot water tank sprung a leak.   Easy come easy go.

    I could buy overpriced vinyl with savings I have, but I only spend so much on recreation.  If I bought something mega expensive, it would probably exhaust by fund budget for a while.  That being said the lack of concerts over the last 12 months did allow me to spend more money on records and ultralight backpacking gear ;)

    Best thing to do is to sell your PJ stuff to buy more PJ stuff.

    Digital cards are all the rage these days. Topps has a few different games available as apps and if you look on eBay you’ll see what I’m talking about. Also nba top shot.
    Digital cards have been sold for years with zero increase in price.  NBA topshot is a totally different story.

    If you have sports cards and want posters or other PJ stuff I am your guy.

    Just to name a few posters I have for trade if you have something I like are.

    Plenty of other stuff to trade.  PM me if interested.

    Yeah, not us. Paid off remaining credit card debt, rest in savings. Zero credit cards debt for the first time since in 15 years. Feels good! Thanks government! 
    Same! Feels great!
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    I am a massive fan of vinyl and I love PJ but I can’t get my head around spending $1000s on a record or boxset. I also don’t understand having one sealed and one to play. Is that to make money from in future? Personally I love playing my records, not looking at them in shrink wrap. It is a shame when things get to this price and scarcity, so only a select fee can enjoy them.

    Surprised trading cards are back with hype.  Anyone remember when the O'pee Chee Premier '92 Hockey cards were first available? Packs were cheap at the beginning then all of the sudden packs were selling for $20 bucks a pop.

    Imagine Pearl Jam's '13, '16 & '18 trading cards jump up high in value shortly?

    Going forward with BGS on the Lebron rookie card. Found a bunch of my 80s/90s Jordan cards too. Going to get a few of those graded as well. With any luck, 10 years from now when my oldest goes to college, I’ll have some extra cash to help!

    13 I can see, 16 and 18, nope.

    yes the OPC premier was the first High End hockey card besides the Stadium club set that they also mass overproduced.

    Certain cards are still worth something from those eras.

    I'll buy or trade people!! Got PJ stuff to trade you for your cards that are sitting in boxes that you aren't doing anything with!

    Well again the best way to do it is to sell some PJ items to buy your PJ grails.  I wouldn't recommend going into debt over this stuff.  I just bought a Benny (not on ebay).  I just sold some records and a poster.  Sealed or unsealed is the owners choice.  Kind of like “Do you frame and hang every poster”?  I don’t lol.  There’s probably not many Bennys left that are sealed at this point anyway.  Maybe 500 of the 2050 or whatever. 

    As far as cards, i was convinced in 1991 that id be able to retire on my Larry Johnson rookie cards one day :lol:

    To buy a Benny at that price I would have to sell pretty much my whole record collection!

    maybe not?  For my collection the stuff with the most value is 90s and 00's stuff, even some of the stuff pressed in early 2010's has gone up in value quiet a bit, because vinyl keeps getting more popular, so pressings big enough for 2014, weren't big enough satiate the 2020 demand.

    I would say it would be pretty easy to sell off some records to buy a benaroya, but then you don't have those records either.  Most of the rarer stuff I have, I wouldn't want to part with, because I wouldn't able to get them again.   Is it worth trading 12 fairly rare records worth a few hundred a pop for 1 $2400 record kind of thing... probably not :(

    I only bought CDs in the 90s and onwards, apart from one or two records I picked up cheap. I started buying vinyl again only a few years ago and I only have a couple of rare-ish records, which I wouldn’t part with. I just picked up the Ten super deluxe boxset and that was expensive enough! Lovely set though. I guess I personally just don’t feel a record is worth paying thousands for

    Imagine buying a sealed copy only to find out it has warpred or worse?  I would never buy that set sealed unless I was literally in a place to light my money on fire for kicks.
    Vinyl flat and groovy pouch is an effective solution to warped records.  I’ve got one and use it to flatten new and old warped albums.  I’ve put cheap and expensive stuff in it.  Works great.

    but yeah, it sucks to buy a sealed record regardless of price and see it’s warped.

    I always bought the vinyl and CD. Only version of Vitalogy I had was vinyl for a while. But then there was about a 2-3 year period where I didnt buy any vinyl because I was in college, my record player broke, and I was student teaching so I had no money. Had planned on buying everything I missed in a few years when I was working. What came out in that 2-3 year gap? RVM, LD, Benny.....
    I remember when Avocado came out you could still buy Riot Act from the 10c for $25. I had no reason to think it would go up in value.

    😣 this is it. I went to college/Uni and had so little money I had to save up for weeks to buy a new CD! And vinyl was not so popular for a while and many bands didn’t release on vinyl, so CD seemed like the way to go. I bought all the imported Ten CD singles as a teenager and they were rare and expensive at the time, and now are so easy and cheap to get hold of. I do wish I had picked up the No Code vinyl reissue though. There was no good reason not to other than I didn’t think it would be out of print. So now I don’t have a copy 😔

    I think a lot of people figure they will never own the real deal, and if they are big into vinyl (and if the sound is decent) they would rather have that than nothing. The demand for the vinyl is there but the supply is not
