I dunno, it either seems like a sport of the well-off or the wannabes who want to appear cool by saying they listen to an "obscure" format...*shrug*
Pretty much all of the records I've bought used have been in pretty good condition, and I'd rather pay 3 dollars for an album I want to hear instead of buying it in CD format and spend nearly 15. I only have 4 or 5 records that weren't originally released on vinyl. I don't buy them for the 'cool' factor, I'm the only person who see's my collection anyways. In 20 years are we all going to question the motives of those who still buy CD's?
