rob, check the date!
or mebbe it's true....
i would sell anything else apart from records, i know too many people where
they've done this and it's been the biggest regret they have (actually rob
you're one of em if i remember right)

i agree. i sold all of my records in 1992-ish on a whim (got tired of
buying new records that
were crap pressings and skipped like mad so figured CDs were the way to
go) and, though
there were only 1000 or so at the time that i had, i regretted it quite
soon thereafter and
soon stopped buying cds and went back to buying vinyl again.
unfortunately, many of
that 1000 were irreplaceable and i haven't seen them in the 12 years
since. plus, i *really*
didn't make much money from those records, certainly only a tiny
fraction of what i paid
for them initially, especially cos many were imports, but even if all
1000 had been given
to me free initially (and they *weren't*) the money made from selling
the records was not
very much at all. i think it would make more sense to sell a turntable
(because you can
always buy another one down the line) or some re-attainable books or
something
like that rather than records.
