I always wanted to collect records as we have a player at home, but there's no record stores in my hometown and i have to go into the city to get any decent music stores. It's not far, but if it's an album I really want i'm far too impatient and end up buying the cd then can't afford to buy a duplicate on vinyl, I'd rather buy another album.

My friend worked at Oxfam's record store last summer and we had a ball hanging round all day just playing vinyl. Some good stuff came in, at bargain prices, but he took first dibs on all the great records. My gran and I have been finding some great rare Hank Williams records on the net lately and ordering those. Fun times.
I may start to expand the collection now that we have a few good ones.
