i was the same way when i first started to spin but it soon caught up with me.I play at lots of local clubs and stuff so i just use the money i get from that to get more records, i dont run out and spend my entire paycheck anymore on records.Its nice to have all especially if u are a collector like me but u have to be smart and manage your money

haha tell me about it.
i think im close to $1000 in debt now...

at times i think buying a final scratch would save alot of money.. but its just not the same

yeah i cut back my vinyl buying alot. just cant afford it, especially when i dont have a job

I've just started spinning, but already I sometimes feel the need to buy records, even when I could spend my money in a more sensible way..

But on the other hand, I have two part-time jobs next to my study, so that generates the extra cash needed pretty good..

That's a great way of putting things in perspective (and you can always rely on vinyls to be there for you ) I just spent $70.00 today... There needs to be a rehab clinic for this, it's a true addiction (a fun one at that).

Haha I just began buying and i hope to start spining for my bedroom soon heh i already am spending a lot already heh.

Records in Australia are frikkin 20 dollars each...sheez

When i go to the record shop i try to limit my purchase...i try to get only 2 a week or 2 a fortnight cause right now i'm not made out of money and haven't got a job..

Until i get a job in a club, then things will pick..but right now, i pick slow...and i pick the best of the best.

For example..There is 5 vinyls i want...i listen to the one with the best build up and imaging how good it will sound in a club..

Last purchase i was gonna do i picked Solid Sessions - Janerio (AVB remix) and Dj kim - Get reasdy to explode (Original and Alphazone remix) from a list of Signum - Comin on strong (shokk remix) and Project 101 - Drifting (darren styles remix)..

just do what i do.:P

Borrowing money from friends to pay bills !
Sheeit !!

I am glad that i am not the only one. A tip. As Dj Psygnosis said you have to choose the best of the best. In the beginning i just bought before thinking if it was any good or not. You can say it's like buy them without hearing them. Choose with care and think long about it before you buy .

haha my dad told me the same thing, he knew i was addicted to buying vinyls, and he also knew i smoked
so he was like

3 packs of cigs = 1 vinyl

haha probably shouldve taken his offer, that would at least be 1 or 2 vinyls a week
