The not lost but hard to find art of vinyl records

Discogs with about 1800 records. Invaluable when looking for records out of town/abroad, and checking it through the phone app. Works reasonably well, with a few known problems e.g. with Molchat Doma which is entered in Cyrillic letters in discogs (Молчат Дома) so is really hard to fine on app with roman letters.

Re barcode and catalog numbers, there are many records that have multiple version with same catalog number or barcode. This is where discogs shines. You can also search by barcode number and it will provide list of all the versions under same number.

It’s already been said. Discogs! I’ve purchased many hard to find albums from them. People are honest, and many albums can be found much cheaper than you’d imagine. 
Keep them records spinning!

I’ve got a bunch. About 1200 on the shelf that are in rotation. Others in plastic bins for later.

I use Discogs. I think it has gotten worse over time with their upgrades.

There used to be more information in each listing but now not as much.

Probably millennial logic enhancements.

I just had an album in my want list. I bought it so added to my collection.

Now it won’t show in my collection or want list, but if I search the version, it shows 1 in my collection. It just won’t show it when viewing my collection or want list.

Wish there was something better.

I invested a lot of time adding thousands & adding pressings that weren’t listed.

I wish I could export my data & put it in something better.

What 17,000 lps WOW,that's the most important ever heard of a guy owning  unless he's a store also...WOW...
