Those type deals cost me hours as I can't leave till I look at them all. Ones like that that are not alpha / genre organized are a challenge. Went over a guys house two years ago that had about 5000. None in order. I think he had mental issues. I asked how he finds things, he said he just grabs stuff and plays at random (?). He wanted me to come over and spend a day looking through. They were stacked in many cases, not sideways. Every room in house full. I went home, did some wham bham math and figured 40 hours to inventory. Never went back

Guys like your table guy buy "lots" not inventoried like the guy I described, 10 cents on the record and hope they get enough good to work it out.
