One million records for fifty million dollars (est. worth) does not equal three million dollars

That's definitely not a collection.
It's a hoard.

This clip is "old news"; Mawhinney has been trying to sell his "accumulation" for at least 5 years with no takers. No one wants to keep 20 copies of every Doodletown Pipers LP, let alone one, and then have to find warehouse space to store the accumulation. In this instance, one man's treasure is mostly trash. Bring on the dumpsters.

Yes, this situation has been discussed over and over on various record related forums and FB pages.
Most if not all of the good titles were sold on ebay through a third party. When I went to his store/warehouse in the 1980s he had his Music Master books which were an inventory of his collection to date. If you wanted a record, you could point it out in the books and he would see if there were any copies. I think anything I asked for was only one copy and he would not sell it.
