I'm pretty sure the record store owner here does that, since he's definitely the collector sort. But I'm not so sure all the record store clerks can afford to do so. When I worked at a clothing store and at a camera store, I'd squirrel stuff away--we were allowed to hold things back we wanted to buy for ourselves. My problem is I'd start hording stuff and then realize I couldn't possibly buy everything--which pissed off the managers royally when they could have sold the stuff handsomely to many a regular paying customer.
