This is a new blog that I'm doing. I've tried a couple other blogs before, but did not post very frequently. With this one I'm going to try to do a new post at least once a week. I already have ideas for some future posts.
This blog is about my music collection. Not just my vinyl collection or cassette collection. It is for my full music collection that includes vinyl, cassettes and cds. By thrifty, I'm referring to the music that I bought at a thrift store, garage sale, flea market, bargain bins, dollar bins and those given to me by other people. At least 85% of my collection I obtained by thee ways I mentioned. That is a lot considering that I have over 1,300 albums on vinyl, over 500 on cassette and over 300 on cd.
I've seen collectors in their videos and in a group on Facebook belittle people that buy vinyl at those places. That is why I created the Facebook Thrifty Music Collectors a year and a half ago. It as a group where people can show their music that they obtained through any of those ways I mentioned earlier and not be picked on by these snobs that have plenty of money to pay hundreds of dollars for a single album. There are many of us collectors that are on a tight budget and I feel that this is the best way to get new people interested by purchasing music and stereo equipment by these means where they do not need to make a big investment in order to start their collection.
Yes, in this blog you will also see me ranting, but it is the way I let my opinions be heard. This will be all for this blog. To close I'm going to quote a Twisted Sister song from the 80's. It is a message to these snobs from all of thrifty people. WE'RE NOT GONNA TAKE IT ANYMORE!
