You think your record collection is a cool hobby? Think again. It's a high-stakes game where the prices have been secretly JACKED UP for decades, and we have the proof. Dive into a viral Avonetics discussion where users unearthed the gut-wrenching truth, comparing their parents' dusty Bee Gees albums with their original price stickers to the insane costs of today's new pressings.
