Any music lover notice how the classical CDs are almost NEVER locked up in used CD stores? I once found a rare, out of print, Michael Rabin (renowned, legendary violist) box set which sells for $800+ on eBay for $25 (mint condition) at a used record store. While it wasn't in the bargain bin, it was easily accessible to anyone. Meanwhile, retailers are busy putting their used $3 Britney Spears CDs behind locked glass.

The answer is obvious: classical music lovers are not the type to steal CDs or records. GASP! I'm guilty of profiling!
