Mind you YouTube these days is very good and i can find most of the music i love on there.
Spent many of my younger days mooching around junk shops looking for bargains, harder these days as so many record fairs and on-line sites like Ebay are in on the act.

Re: My first love......but woe is me....
I've never really understood collectors of things, for instance you say you had 3500 albums but how many did you actually listen to, it would probably take the rest of your life to listen to them all back to back so what's the point? OK I can understand keeping a few favorites but why keep them all?One of my relatives reads lots of books but can never part with them afterwards, consequently every nook, cranny and shelf is stacked with books that have been read once but will never be read again. Personally I don't listen to recorded music anyway, but when I've read a book I just pass it on to someone else to enjoy which seems more more use.
Although to each their own though I guess, but I just can't see the point...
