Are “better records” worth the money?

[Grateful]

Hi,
I’m new here and hope my question is allowed/appropriate. Now that he’s retired, and his business is winding down, I see no harm.
In your opinion, are Tom Port’s “better records” worth the cost?

It depends.

A few years back I bought maybe 4-5 records from him.
Only one was actually better than what I owned and worth the hype. Bryan Ferry - Boys & Girls - sounds amazing.
A couple of them were a bit noisy, something not mentioned in the grading.

I never order again. YMMV

Thanks, I probably should have asked “Were “better records” worth the money?”, since almost all of them are ”a bit noisy” now.
