walmart sells them.

That doesn't mean they buyers aren't niche customers. Wal-Mart sells 4K/UHDs, but it's still a niche item.

Those two outliers are being driven by a specific demographic group.

I have the Mobile Fidelity box set Beatles 'The Collection'.I have not played it in many years due to a lack of a really good turntable. I just saw its going for big bucks on ebay.

when the Gen Zs as well as the working class folks awake by a country boy's voice, song that may sound like a rant, Taylor Swift will not be on the top that long...

Yet, Taylor Swift has been on top for over a decade now.

Being dethroned by a modern day "Elvis" ?

I don't know if something like an "Elvis" can happen nowadays, with the media landscape flooded with tons of music than ever.

The second hand market is still niche so I wouldn't classify it as huge.

What I meant was that the number of second hand records is enormous. All those collections collated during the 50s, 60s and 70s by people who are no longer with us and whose children are dumping them onto the market. Those today who choose vinyl and who do not restrict their enthusiasm to modern pop music have a very large choice of material.

As a person who buys records, I agree. I could be wrong but I think that vinyl is a bubble that is going to burst relatively soon. Much like DVD/Blu-ray/UHD, there are die hards who will buy physical until the last one is manufactured (I'm one of them) but the days of even Taylor Swift moving hundreds of thousands of records aren't going to be around much longer.

Target also sells records. They like Walmart also sell the record players as well.
