my maths say around 16 ft per 1000 = 80 ft of vinyl
Not to mention the weigh
did you ever see the pics of Jon Peel’s record collection 120k vinyls
I like my SSD

Yeah, closer to 90 linear feet of Ikea shelving, spread across two rooms.
This is the rear of my listening room. The other set of shelves is a 4x4 Ikea Kallax in my home office down the hallway.

Mine were an unfortunate casualty of emigrating , we didn’t have enough room in the container.
It was “when did you last…” wear, listen read. We cleared a lot of clutter
I’d already started to move to CD anyway. I don’t really miss the “ceremony” of vinyl, I am now totally media less . No books, no CD’s , no DVD’s (except my prized James Bond set) alas no DVD player !!

Got a similar amount, was advised to make sure my shelves went across the floor joists because of the weight.
Been buying for decades and not slowed down yet

what does 100 LP’s weigh , I have no idea
EDIT
Dr Google suggests 21 to 25 KG so @Dean_Wette is more than a tonne of plastic and cardboard
My house is nearly 100 years old and is a very solid two-story brick. All my shelves are lined up against plaster-on-lathe walls. The ones in my photo above have stood there, fully laden, for a decade now. I’ve had no issues with it all.

Sometimes I hate vinyl….rofl.
Just wasted an hour on cartridge setup as was hearing bad sibilance on Fugazi by Marillion but couldn’t cure it at all.
Thinking stylus worn out so getting depressed.
Then did what I should have done an hour ago, put a different record on!
Sibilance nowhere in sight(or earshot) on Talk to your Daughter by Robben Ford!
Grrrrr.
Damn your Scottisssssh a$$ Fish!!

I hate to say it but I look at the recording first.
Originally I thought the “tizzing” sound was an artefact of my aging ears then I thought my headphones are TOO good , then I thought I am listening 70’s Rock maybe the back street studio wasn’t up to snuff .
Then find a record that doesn’t show the fault , my ears and headphones (HD800) are vindicated 
I seriously considered buying a pair of headphones that weren’t so analytical to get around it

I’m surprised to hear that you find the Sennheiser HD800 to be “analytical”. Resolving,yes, but with plenty warmth and meat to the sound, which is also well balanced. Musical is the term I’d use to describe the HD800.
What I meant was that they are a bit unforgiving with poor quality recordings, maybe wrong descriptors
they are still my favourites

I guess that I’ve been spending too much time over on Head-Fi where people tend to get overly analytical themselves and very defensive of their cherished cans. Like you, the HD800s are one of my favorite headphones. After the recent CanJam NYC I now seem to have fallen down the ZMF rabbit hole. Check the “Show us our headphones” thread for more since this thread is about things that spin.
HD800S or HD800’s as they slightly lowered the top end on the "S” ?
Don’t think there will be much after the HD800S now that Sennheiser have been bought out, seems they are more interested in gaming/portable rather than audiophile .
