inmemory Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Hi All, This is my first time on a record forum. My stepfather passed away a few months ago. He was in the jukebox business all his life (last 20 years restoring old ones). Anyways, he has thousands of vinyl records and before he died he said that he wanted to sell his collection (almost one by one - to those who would appreciate them). I have started the process of cataloging and even started putting some for sale on the webstore... lots of views, but no offers yet. Would this be a good forum for me to sell some of the records and get help on ones that I can't find any info on? I look forward to your comments. Thanks - Pamela Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmyg Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 This would be a good place to do that. Once you've got everything listed I'm sure there will be people who will buy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Hey Pamela, First off, so sorry for your loss. This site is great if you want to sell off some records for sure, I'd check out popsike.com or ebay's completed listing section to figure out reasonable prices for your LP's. Also I'd pick up a Goldmine Record Price Guide as well, you can usually find them at Barnes & Noble or other big book stores. Good luck!

inmemory Posted July 7, 2011 Author Share Posted July 7, 2011 Thank you! Ok, more questions... I'm slowly making lists; should I make lists by artists? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hipsterasfolk Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Yes and I would recommend viewing the proper way to ship vinyl thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somethingvinyl Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I'd be interested in seeing the list once it's completed. I'm interested in jazz, blues and soul 45's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

streetwaves Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Also, please be sure to list the condition of each record. Use Goldmine standards when grading the records. This is especially important if you aren't going to include a picture of each record. You can check eBay and Discogs for an idea what your records are worth. Don't let people make offers until you know the value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
