Some Additional Info

Okay, so this is definitely generating some interest... let me add a few things of note: First off, thanks for checking it out!!! When I refer to custom sleeves in the album list it is a little misleading, I meant to say custom INNER sleeves. In some cases, records just have a generic white paper or poly inner sleeve. If the record includes the original custom inner sleeve (like with liner notes or lyrics) I will indicate it in the notes. As for your interest, Thank you for that, too! But I really do not have any set prices in mind which is why I asked for offers. The plan is to eventually put everything up on eBay but I thought I'd open them to your offers first. I'm sorry if this discourages anyone from making an offer but you might as well ask, I can only say no... or YES. But I will say that if it's anything from the '90s or '00s that's out of print, you'd really have to wow me with an offer. If it's a common LP, easily available in your local record store used bin, I'd definitely consider a very fair and affordable offer. But so you know, all of that rare OOP stuff from the last 12 years or so will have a starting bid of 99 cents. So that may persuade you to wait until I list it. Anyway, I hope that helps. If you don't dig records but you know someone who does...spread the news... you've found the mother load!

LP Database Has Gone Live!

I just posted the full list of LPs this morning. If you see something you like, let me know. I will consider all realistic offers prior to listing an auction. Once the auction has posted though, that's it, I will not accept any further offers. So check it out at your earliest convenience. Auctions will start going live around August 10, 2010.

The Fine Print

Here are the finer points if interested in bidding... fact I am liquidating my entire collection of LPs – over 2,500 albums accumulated over the last forty years. Since I am a solo act with a day job, family responsibilities, and have so many records to list, I suggest you check back often as it will probably take me several months to list everything. Seriously. It’s going to take me a long time. what All records are original pressings unless otherwise noted and have been stored vertically on shelves since they’ve been in my possession. The collection spans the last five decades and consists of many genres. Lots of rarities, some promos, many landmark recordings. I grade everything conservatively using the visual Goldmine standards (I invite you to check my past feedback). All photos posted are of the actual item being offered. how I will be posting my newer vinyl first, (stuff pressed in the ‘90s and ‘00s) and will work my way backwards to the beginning of time (artists like Elvis, Little Richard, Muddy Waters, Chuck Berry, and the like will be the last to go). Occasionally, when it makes sense, I will auction an entire artist's collection or sub-genre as a multi-LP lot in hopes of minimizing the work involved to list and ship such a vast collection. discover Additionally, if you would like to learn more about these recordings and the artists, you can click the link to my website where I will showcase each LP up for auction. Please check it out to sample some of the songs, see additional photos, view the track lists, and more. I will also attempt to include interesting facts, stories, and/or details regarding the artists and recording sessions when possible. ¿cuánto? All auctions will start at $ .99 with no reserve - seems fair to me. mail I will ship once a week, typically on Tuesdays, and mail every item that has been paid for by the end of the previous Sunday. Media mail with professional packaging is $3.99. Additional LPs are $1.50 domestic so, please check my other auctions. I remove the record from the sleeve when shipping and include a poly or paper sleeve for protection. Important - media mail may take up to two weeks for delivery! I will ship priority US mail upon request. Please contact me for a quote. Please contact me for quotes on international shipping. Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer’s responsibility. Please check with your country’s customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding. International shipping via first class can take a month or more from the shipping date - I have no control over shipping time. *IMPORTANT* As of this writing it is rumored that the USPS will be increasing its rates yet again! Since I have no idea if and when this will actually happen, I reserve the right to adjust my shipping charges in accordance with any rate changes that the USPS imposes. This increase, if imposed, will take effect concurrently with any USPS increases. Trust me, I won't gouge you. I'll keep in line with current shipping charges, enough to cover my supplies and actual shipping costs. etc. Stay tuned as this will be an ever evolving project with records being added daily. Add me to your favorite sellers list and don’t forget to add the eBay mobile app on your smart phone so you can keep up while you’re on the move!
