Nick Hornby Quote
The best customers are the ones who just have to buy a record on a Saturday, even if there's nothing they really want; unless they go home clutching a flat, square carrier bag, they feel uncomfortable. You can spot the vinyl addicts because after a while they get fed up with the rack they are flicking through, march over to a completely different section of the shop, pull a sleeve out from the middle somewhere, and come over to the counter; this is because they have been making a list of possible purchases in their head (If I don't find anything in the next five minutes, that blues compilation I saw half an hour ago will have to do), and suddenly sicken themselves with the amount of time they have wasted looking for something they don't really want.
