Too bad the gas bill is due this month. I just don't have a spare $3 mill lying around. Very Happy

I'm gonna buy it. Then I'll weed out all the crap CDs and trade'em on Lala for the stuff that I REALLY want. It's a perfect plan, I tell ya! PERFECT! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

That would be a sweet purchase. This dude clearly had money from the beginning, though. Probably rich parents or something.

Eyesore you're still young. You may give him a run for his money.

Pffft! I doubt I'll ever reach 10,000, unless I start making some serious cash.

) as a school counselor... Laughing

I checked out his web site and he claims he's not trying to sell the collection to an individual. He wants it to go to a museum or college or something.

Not that he'd refuse the 3 million from a person though.

Most of those records will probably end up at a Salvation Army or a GoodWill

and i thought eyesore had a lot of cds

I wonder if there's 3.300.000 different albums in the collection or
just hundreds of same titles? According to the description on the ebay,
there must be just different stuff, but let's do a little math:

50 years - 18250 days
3.300.000 / 18250 - 180 albums a day.

So he didn't even have a chance to listen to them even once ...

I agree Sovdat....seems pointless. However, he was in it for the History and the Collecting while most of us are in it for music.

It would bet his 3000 best titles alone would be worth 100's of thousands of dollars. He's probably got some crap but if they're all in great shape he has to have some $3000, $5000 titles. Rare Beach Boys or Elvis stuff. Early Hendrix B-sides. Stuff like that.

OH, to have a week alone with his collection!!!

The auction says that many titles aren't even opened.

I wonder what this guy's insurance premiums are. I have an extra rider to cover my CDs because they're estimated worth is between 30K and 50K.
