I was mail-ordering records from Germany – stuff I never expected to find in the US; also buying a few used Japanese domestic CD’s inexpensively.  I can see a trip or two to swap meets.  I even see some eBay!  Looks about like I only bought approx. 3.2 records per day of September 2002!  And I am still buying Beatles’ CD’s for the first time!
