It bothers me a lot these days when a lot of record collecting just becomes like Stamp/Collecting when it's more about the "markings" I.e shrink wrap, hype stickers, alignment of apples! etc etc. I just want to play the music. Like the saying goes "It's in the grooves that counts" I buy sixties, seventies and Beatles. I don't care if they're reissues or on cd. I just like to listen to music.
All is fair in love and war (and vinyl collecting).. first come first serve. Since he's new to the album and didn't have a copy, and you have one in shrink, I'd have been happy to see it go to someone who needed it more than you do. Since you asked what we thought. Looks like you did pretty well anyway. I'm always just sad to see all the brilliant music you don't pay attention to over your Beatles finds, but hey that's what you love so those other amazing albums you flipped through will go to a good home too. That was a nice collection, other than I'd have gone bankrupt taking what I wanted from it. lol. Cool Video
You make a great point and completely understood. There are times I will buy albums that I like and there have been plenty of times I will let it go to someone who is really into the group/band more than I am. A few of these folks have really appreciated it and you can see it in their face how happy they are. Take care
I love the dynamic you have there, its clear you have a relationship with them and spend money, I work retail in a place with limited and we have customers that that just miss things and there are people who get real upset. We have people like Greg there who buy things because 1 they don't have it or 2 they want more/another one. or 3. the internet told them they could resell it (which is illegal for alcohol). 5 it was highly rated. 6. because its perceived as rare. But we also have customers (like true beatles junkies) who just love a certain style of beer and want to drink a barrel aged doppelbock and the really like doppelbock, and no one makes one let alone a barrel aged one. You can liken it nerd wise to: For greg its beatle and its MINT I want it where as to some (apparently you) who love the beatles and would love to own such a great album in such good condition.
Oh lord I’d never go to his store another reason why I don’t go to record stores the owners are WAY to possessive and arrogant it’s so worth paying more and have people being nice to u than dealing with jerks
Joe, you are a classic my friend. Hurt about your Beatles 65 album thing. I love the Beatles and it just warms my heart that there are people like you out there that get that feeling of satisfaction by collecting Beatles stuff. Keep up the good work on the channel.
Hey Joe! Great video taking us with you into your record digging session at your local record shop. Looks like you found some great finds and sorry to see you missed out on the Beatles 65. I understand you feeling cut! But I hope you found another good copy of it soon!
You are very blessed yo live near a record store! I have an antique store where I get a lot of my stuff. Going to the real record store this Sunday an hour away very exited!
We had Korvettes in Philadelphia back in the day. I remember buying "Something New" there . You're fortunate to have a independent record store to visit, mine closed years ago. I remember Stars on 45 from 1981. Odd release.
Check out this follow-up "sequel" to this video:
shop owner: "you're not worthy!"
Wow Joe - one of my fav vids of yours! The hairs on my arms were standing up see those rows of minty records - I mean "WOW". Thank you. Cheers, Craig

This is right up there with one of your best record store vid's.

Wow, those records look amazing, 👍🏼👍🏼
Great albums, there. Thanks for letting me see what they had.
Thanks for taking us through your digging session! Hope you ended up scoring the Beatles 65 record since then

I enjoyed this one, some funny moments between you and Joe the store owner!

The banter was hilarious. I'd love to be there in person to hear what we call "the slagging" 😂
Just subbed, I'm having a ball watching you go through those record's!
