Topic: What's The Point of a Mint Record?
| 11th May 2014, 12:07 AM | ||
 | TopPopper Member since Mar 2013 2612 Points | Personally, I draw a distinction between records "for the collection" and records/CDs which I want to listen to. From a pure collecting point of view, I'd like to have a record which is in the state it was in when issued. I have many records I've never played, and just have them because I like to collect a set or genre. The aim is to acquire the records as released. If it's one just to enjoy playing, then I don't care too much about condition provided it sounds OK. In fact, the crackles and obvious age of the thing can sometimes add to its appeal. I can't imagine ever prefering a copy with writing on to one without. I just see that as damage, and therefore devaluing the object. |
