about 30 years ago a large portion of my dad's record collection was
stolen..it included many super rare old 78's worth several thousand dollars
these days...every once in awhile he'll spot some of them being sold now
(they're identifiable due to having unique chips, or labels, or being 1 of
only a few known in existance, whatever)...pretty frustrating and crazy when
you spot your own precious stolen records being sold..hey that's mine!
nothing you can do..except get more..

one of my best friend's record collection was involved in a fire while he
was out of the country recently. he had them stored at a high school
friend's place, which was almost completely gutted by fire. we spent
several days retrieving and sorting thru 9 postal crates full of
smoke-damaged record sleeves -- but somewhat miraculously, almost all of
the records still play just fine. a few are a bit warped, and I bet his
current set of needles won't last long, but mainly just sleeve damage and
the wondrous scent of campfire and burnt plastic.
