MrMagpie Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I know this might turn into a "oh man, that person is so cool, they own 50000 cds!" But I'm just curious how big of a cd collection most people on here have and how long they've been buying cds. Only physical formats count (cds, vinyl, singles, etc).

the_gloaming09 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I haven't counted them all, but by having rows of cds and basing the rows off of one number, I'd say I have at at least 300 cds, singles, eps, lp, etc.... i'm probably between 310 and 330 (just a guess) edit: I've probably been buying cds for the last 8 years or so... a good chunk of these cd's i got as gifts (friends, birthday's, xmas, etcetera etcetera) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMagpie Posted April 17, 2009 Author Share Posted April 17, 2009 I think I'm up around 200. I don't have a record player, so no vinyl here :( Grade 11 is when I started building my own cd collection. So I guess I've been collecting for about 5 years.

Black Rose Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 *opens up my lovely excel spreadsheet of my CD collection* Albums total 785 Singles total 356 At it's peak I had around 1000 albums, and those singles mostly have been set aside to get rid of somehow due to space issues.

MrMagpie Posted April 17, 2009 Author Share Posted April 17, 2009 Thats intense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 What's intense is that I spent easter weekend doing a 100% check against my list and copying the barcode numbers for future reference onto the list. However about 100 of those CDs listed are in my pile which are currently for sale on my Amazon Seller account *cue shameless plug my shop!:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
