Homem abóbora.
The customs' taxmen will feast on this mass import.

Hi FULLRANGEMAN.
Yes, that's right, the custom officers will earn bags of $$$ with that huge LP importation.
Maybe you should start a business selling turntables,
so many LP will need some turntables to spin them.

I wonder how the vinyl music lowers will absorb so many LPs.
I twill take decades...

It doubtful that these records will disappear forever. I would wager that they will show up in his estate sale sooner or later.
This collection represents a lot money and is very liquid. Unless vinyl is completely abandoned in the next 30 years there will still be a market for the records in his collection.

At 80-90 reais each I dont see anyone buying vinyl here, even the inexpensive used ones.

She's probably worried you're planning to buy the duplicate copies of his collection. 

Thanks for posting this.  It's a fascinating read!
