Updated

Collection size to date (6726) 5/6/22
Vinyl 2947 (+141)
Others 3779 (+33)

Discogs has mysteriously lost 11 items ( 9 vinyl 2 others ) which is weird since last tally ..can’t be arsed to check what’s gone ...

New vinyl was 59 but 81 used ( so I need to stay off eBay !)

May need to slow slow slow down on the buying ! As these are all new arrivals..no back adding
 
In terms of sheer numbers, May was probably my mellowest month of the past several years. Only 5 additions! One of them cost $100+, which helps explain why purchases were limited. Other factors may or may not include the cost of vinyl being too damn high, and me finally being on anxiety meds:

Another light month for me. Three new albums from the Target order, plus a used Bowie record. I did spend big on Bowie preorders and also dipped into the Plaidroom sale, so I’m not completely innocent.

I'm doing a good job going through records and selling off stuff I don't need but that Target sale did some heavy negating on my ratio.
