LouieB Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 It is pretty ridiculous. The mark-up on both new and used vinyl is beyond belief. They are now selling reissued albums for $25 which you can sometimes find for $5 or less if you look for the originals. This too shall pass. The day will come when vinyl records become the beanie babies of the next decade. Meanwhile it is keeping the last of the indie record stores, which we all love, in business.

LouisvilleGreg Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 A one room, used only, record store went out of business here in the last week. It had been open about ten years. There are 7 more shops that sell vinyl still open in Louisville, several of them have been around for 20 or more years. A new vinyl shop is going to open in unchartered territory soon (downtown), we'll see how that goes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
