I love collecting things! It is my favorite thing in the world so I am excited to start a FM vinyl collection! Although, maybe I should forget about framing them and get an old record player and play them? This is what I am unsure about.
And also, does it mater if the albums are not in mint condition? I'm not really collecting to get rich off of this stuff, more because I love FM! But I went to the used record store yesterday and purchased all the albums they had that were in pretty good quality, so I don't know if I should settle for okay quality or not.
BTW, the tusk album art is amazing! I loved to see it in all its colorful glory!

Well, my mom and dad's record player bit the dust a few years ago, so I just collect for the sake of collecting. As far as getting a turntable to play them on, that's up to you. I personally don't mind not being able to play them, seeing as I have all of them on CD. It really doesn't matter if they're in mint condition or not, but I won't buy an LP unless it's in decent condition, i,e; not much wear from the record on the cover, inserts must be intact, etc... I never really bother with the vinyl part, I'm more into collecting the album art. But then again, it's up to you on which quality you settle for.
