Hello MRO!

>> 95%+ of his stock is new vinyl.  Dunno how he can move

M> lots of people buy it off amazon.  not sure why they would
M> buy it off him instead.  searching on amazon is easier.

A quick price comparison between Resolute and Amazon seems to
indicate that prices are on par. Some titles on Resolute are
less $s.

Visiting a physical store is part of a discovery process too.
The shop owner could make informed suggestions for a new
artist.

Sometimes the info on the back of an album can be the final
selling point.  Can't do that with online listings.

In the case of Resolute, it offers a vinyl flattening service
as well.  Maybe that helps people revive poorly stored LP
collections back to life.

The attraction for NEW vinyl at $40+ prices still surprises me
though.
