Paul Mawhinney says a buyer from Ireland agreed to shell out $3,002,150 for his collection of nearly three million vinyl albums, singles and CDs.What's the shipping charge going to be.

Good for him and his family.

The buyer is going to be livid when he gets the unsold 3,000,000 copies of this in his mailbox.
I paid $3,000,000 for this?!

If it’s the entire store’s inventory, the buyer probably got a bargain.

What? The guy had 3 MILLION records for sale?
Thats a hell of a lot of vinyl and he must have spent some real scratch to collect that much stuff over a long period of time, let alone find a place to store 3,000,000 anythings.
Think about how long it would take you to collect 3 million of anything.

3 million records is about what Time-Life sends you when you sign up to get 1 album.

Hope the seller AND the buyer remember to keep that vinyl out of the sunlight and in a nice cool dry place.
Good for Paul Mawhinney! I hope he’s able to enjoy his retirement as best he can.
Hope the buyer has lots of diamond needles to play all that stuff, not to mention a top notch stereo system!

To: Wolfie
Maybe the buyer's a member of the Disco album skeet club?
PULL!

Rush’s auction went for 2.1 million, and he matched it, making the auction 4.2 million. I would say that is at least a qualified record.
Funny how no one mentions it. I bet if Obamawanna put up a letter and gave half the amount of money to the ACLU, the NY Times would be running articles that he was God.
