Thank you! I have no idea how we should be doing this. Anything that works, I suppose.

I've been doing a running total for all stats, I think it's easier and a better snap shot. As for frequency, up to you, I do once a month, mostly because in my "hot and heavy" time period it was a good sign to pump the breaks if things were getting out of hand, lol. At this point I could do once a quarter since my buying habits have become more refined. As you said, whatever works ;)
 
In my defense my three month pace is somewhat swollen with the VMP 8 album subscription bonus and that crazy SOV sale, but I may need to seek professional help if it doesn't slow down soon.

I missed a jume post, I’m sure my July post will help you feel better about all that.

A very slow last couple of months for me. I have a bunch on pre-order, but most have not yet shipped.

I’ve kinda been purging whilst still buying and I’m a bit all over the shop in terms of what’s gone out v what’s come in.

I’ll take stock afresh at the start of next year!
 
I don't wanna either....but I'm gonna anyway. :D

A not-small number for the month (+49), but most were very inexpensive yard-sale buys and titles 'found' within my collection as I completed my discogs cataloguing.

Got a lot of stuff on the cheap last month with a local private seller shutting down and slashing prices.
