I think it's great that he's collected so many Vinyls, and probably has quite a few rare / out of print and no longer available ones in there. There is some value to preserving history for the sake of preserving history - even if not every record in the pile is a gem.
Part of the problem is not only coming up with the $3mill, but also the transportation and storage of the Vinyls. It's gotta take up quite a bit of space, and even if someone just happened to have $3mill to burn - they probably don't have the space / resources to deal with that much Vinyl.
well, if you can cough up 3 million, I think you can just leave it where it is and rent a nice apartment somewhere in the neighborhood.
Or rent a few containers to ship it.
