John Greaves - Accident HENRY COW PROG MINIMAL SYNTH

That polyrock is the grey one with the cutout silhouette right?

what's the reissue/original issue ratio look like on these?

oh haha... didn't read that they were on ebay.
will check them out then

which answers all questions as well!

is set sale stuff okay for this thread. my brother thinks he might want to post stuff exclusively for i love vinyl people. and maybe i will too. you know, weird stuff.

arthur russell instrumentals wha???

think i forgot that existed- is it similar to the peter zummo stuff?

i think this thread can be anything we want it to be. sales/trades/stuff only for this thread/ebay. whatevs. stuff we don't want anymore.

russell instrumentals is classical music. i think there was a double cd that came out a few years back w/it on there.

brandon, if any of that stuff doesn't sell, i will gladly sell/trade to you.

u can listen to clips of the john greaves here.
http://www.discogs.com/John-Greaves-Accident/master/189563

sorta a weirdo new wave/minimal synth record. kinda john cale-y.

yeah let me know... btw I LOOOVE that Arthur Russell stuff. Some of my favorite music of his... got the cd vers. on Audika.

gonna check those records out but first i want to make sure you've got good feedback, pal!

LOL i hadnt seen this thread but came here to post this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330372436362&ssPageName=ADME:L:LCA:US:1123

does that link work for you non-sellers of the item?

hmm... G+ denotes something much worse than what you describe in my experience--a spine crack and some stains is solid VG territory imo.

should i edit?

i mean, it's a little busted. maybe ill go VG- but i dont feel good about VG.

ok revised:

oh man my record is going for ONE HUNDRED TWENTY times what i paid for it!!!!

eighteen watchers, 83min to go...

ok ended up $21.71 to greece. it's 2LP, and ill pack it well -- what should i charge this guy on the invoice?

we have a lil post office at work and everything to europe (norway & belgium) has been $12.48. i usually charge 14 to cover the box, etc.

might wanna charge a bit more to cover the 2xlp?

i charge a flat 15 to anywhere outside the states. nobody gripes. i pack nicely.

so on my page i said $4 per record for shipping and $1 extra if you buy more than one. i sold a double LP. do i charge $5?

Yes.

also, one guy lives 10 minutes from my work. do i tell him he can just pick up from me? or is that creeps?

Give him the option and see what he says? Seems like that would be the way to go. :-)

I've dropped stuff off for people who live near me. It seems wasteful to send it through the mail in that instance. Plus it's really interesting to see who is buying off you. One guy I'm Facebook friends with now.

pulled out 150-200 records to sell last night, and it feels so good. my idea was to hit RED DEVIL in san rafael, then amoeba with the remains. any SFers have any different advice on places to sell? i saved a couple for ebay (mayyors 12" 1st press and a couple hoZac singles), but im mostly tryna just get SOME money and put some shit in stores...

i've gotten rid of most of my records (stuff that's worth less than 10$ to me) at grooves and then amoeba. i probably got rid of 300 records and got like 200 in credit. so don't expect much. lot of it really was dollar crap though. i have another box or 2 of crap to get rid of, so i'll be your road dog if you want.

i ended up having that guy pick up the record from me. it was vvv awkward to say the least. o well, at least it was quick

did he try to get into yer stacks?

how was it awkward? i've had local sales on ebay too, to date i've avoided IRL cash/LP exchanges though.

I sold and dropped off a GSYBE LP to a fiftyish hippy kinda guy. I thought he might invite me in to get high but he didn't.

i guess it wasn't that weird. he was just very nonplussed about the whole thing. he was sorta red neck gangstery and when i tried to shake his hand (why i did it, i have no idea?) he didn't really want to.

and then i was gonna tell him a 'awesome' story about where i found the record and sorta decided to keep it to myself

yeah i kinda feel like handing the record over in person will just lead to one of three things:

a) person wanting to hang out and talk about records for an hour
b) person checking the record very carefully for flaws and trying to talk the price down
c) person being generally awkward and weird

this is DEFINITELY where you need to pretend to have just gotten a phone call and be like sorry for the rush!! everyone will appreciate that.

about 10 years ago did face to face LP sale to save on shipping and met one of my bestest SF bros ever. we ended up working together, got me into biking, hooked me up on my old apartment (lol @ italian mafia), hookups with his rad sister in NYC (soooo hot, altho perpetually dated awesome chefs so it was a wash), awesome color played his bday party...

seriously one of the coolest guys ever.

but then again it was a really cool record (NM Great Lost KINKS LP) so i think it's like whatever comes with the territory.

what were you selling jaxon?

only once did i do a local cash/dropoff years ago when i lived in chicago and the buyer turned out to be bundy k brown. quick and non-awkward.

ya. it wasn't a hip record. it was a sealed copy of Fear Of A Black Planet

oh i get it now he was black! that can be very "uncomfortable". two different worlds colliding.

hahahaha!

wait, jk? "red-necky" means white to me, but i missed out on where that even entered the deeeeeeal

ok ok red neck gangstery whatever

maybe he meant he was a wanksta.

it's never fun talking to wankstas.

whats a female version of a wanksta

wait was he a juggalo?

female wanksta is a pigeon.

here we go

http://www.ep.tc/problems/seven/thats_racist.gif

anyway i'm planning on selling a few records on ebay. anyone care about spacemen 3?

spacemen 3 is always good ebay bait.

or, to put it another way, demand outpaces supply. in the case of spacemen 3.

it's the one that was on sympathy, 'to all the fucked-up children of the world'. i think it goes for between $30-$65, depending on luck.

sold $450 of records this weekend! then quickly reinvested $250 in cecil taylor, anthony braxton, roland kirk, mimi and richard twofer, yazoo's hawaiian hotshots LP, ebenezer obey, and a buncha other stuff! ill post the new list a little later...

whoa. that took a weird turn. scott got all ethan on me. and wrongfully so. he was kinda juggaloish. and seriously, when's the last time you heard a black guy into PE? to me the people that go on and on about them are 35+ yr old white guys.

pete, where'd you sell?

i was joking! that's why i added actual laughter along with my posts. hahahaha!

ya. i figured something was up. not your normal steez. but you never know w/ilm

i'm getting tempted to sell half my collection and go for a more quality over quantity thing, but the problem is i feel like i'll regret it within a few days. but i can't spend much on vinyl without trading in or selling because i'm saving every dirty dime for my w3dd1ng. it's a real catch-22. should i just call off the wedding so i can get a bunch of mississippi records shit and a huge order from boomkat?? y/n???

records will be there forever, bro

also (it won't let me post link to unnece$$@ry g00glepr00fing thread)

i really want to thin the collection big time also. records are taking over the place. i really wanted to take my ebay earnings (i made like $450 off 19 records and a few of the wife's sunglasses) and go big and buy stuff i've always felt were too expensive, but damn if i'm not having a hard time dropping $60 on a 12"

yeah that's kinda the thing too, even if can suddenly afford something i've had my eye on like that new numero uno big LP set or a single lp for $40, i'll end up buying a dozen cheaper LPs instead.

try not to worry about it too much. there are a lot of records out there. lots of good stuff to listen to. when you have the money, go for it. when you don't...um, buy more country records. there are lots of good dollar country records! or go classical! hundreds of years of amazing music for a dollar or less.

jaxon, i sold at r3d d3vil in san rafael. he took $106 worth of records, then his ex-employee took a look at the rest of my records (a few gems, but mostly just STOCK of mine), and offered me $350 for the rest. i was all-too-happy to oblige. sorry no group expedition this time -- we were breezin through on our way to a friend's house -- but i DEF wanna hit up some SJ/marin/east-bay stuff soon. maybe coliseum flea market before christmas? alameda flea market? alemany flea market? fruitvale? ill go wherever.

no worries, i was sick in bed all weekend. that's great about how he took it all. was the ex employee just like a dude shopping in the store?

umm he was kinda camped out there snipin? i think he does it a lot.., he was very nice, and he's now im my phone as "chris records"

Denise Handicap, Wendy Wheelchair, Nasty Big Tits, Janelle Sweet Ass

YES YES YES LOL i made that joke after entering the number and no one got it

cross-posted from my GOAL thread, but check it out! obv if anyone on here is stoked for any of these, ill give u free shipping!

http://shop.ebay.com/reesewitherspoon1123/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=&_trksid=p3686

what's up with eBay only allowing you to charge $4.00 to ship a vinyl LP, even a boxed set??????????? is there any way to get around this?

just tell people in your description what the shipping really is.

but if they pay right after the auction's over with the automated invoice, then i'll have to ask them for additional $$, which is awkward.

also: why the fuck does amazon do that?

another thing you can do is decide what the minimum amount is that you want to get for an item then add the actual shipping cost to that price and then provide free shipping. people LOVE free shipping. so, if for instance, you want to get at least 8 bucks for a record and the actual shipping cost is 5 bucks first class or media mail then start that record at 12.99. (just make sure that whatever you are selling isn't something that ten other people are selling for less with buy it now or whatever)

that's an excellent idea. i presume you can still charge overseas shipping, though.

yeah i just do a flat rate for around the world. i charge 15 dollars for anywhere in the world and it evens out okay. sometimes it costs 11 or 12 or 13. even 2 or 3 records in a box is usually 15 or under. dunno about a boxed set, but even then its probably not much more than 15 bucks.

hey so a lot of my stuff is selling!

i sold a folkways record to a dude in italy. im fine with that, but i wanna take the proper precautions for ensuring (perhaps by insuring) its arrival. what should i charge? what should i say? what protection should i use?

registered mail only to Italy, although that prob'ly should have been in your description.

or just don't sell to italy. which i'm thinking of doing the next time i sell stuff. sadly, they do buy a lot of records, but they can be a big hassle.

Shit gets lost in Italian post.

fuckin camorra

funky camara

well, my buyer has 100% good feedback, and a lot of it, and the record was only $25 before shipping. I'll take my chances this time on International 1st-Class, and add a registered mail only clause in the future!

1st-press SIAMESE DREAM on orange marble vinyl NM-/NM LOL

is anyone else ever tempted to sell off 3/4ths of their collection and start almost completely anew?

Um, no. I have lost count of the number of records I've sold & then re-bought later so I now have a no selling policy. There's plenty of records I could be embarrassed about owning but resale/trade value + cost or availability of getting a bunch of new records just doesn't add up for me.

xp yeah, i sometimes am. what's more attractive to me, though, is a "freshwater" collection, where there's no solid core of collection, per se? like, maybe 50% of things flow into and out of the collection in five years or something, and i hold on to things for as long as i want, but no longer.

i hold on to things for as long as i want, but no longer.

^^ this is some zen record collector shit.

I have been tempted to sell maybe 1/4 of the collection but no more than that, especially w/r/t vinyl.

Gonna put about 20 vinyls on eBay tomorrow. I'll link once I get it up.

Wait till after xmas/jan.

yeah, I see your point, ten day period adds some though. maybe I'll just wait til the current round runs out this weekend.

people are gettin STOKED about siamese dream

^^^they just reissued anodyne, maybe they'll reissue these two separately? right now this would go for well over $100 i bet

it's on homestead/dutch east india from 1992, pretty limited i think?

lol @ shasta mid life crisis

everyone's gotta clean the closets once in a while...

For the most part none of my records are really worth much, though I do have a Sunburned Hand Of The Man Jaybird CDR on EBay with TWOOO watchers right now . I have a box of records I mean to put up, and I think I have a Hendrix/Little Richard thing that's worth I dunno $25-35 or something (?) but none o the rest are actually worth anything iirc. I kinda suck at collector.

Sunburned Hand Of The Man Jaybird CDR

i have this! please let me know what it sells for?

i told a friend of mine to sell his vinyl copy of 'summerteeth' by wilco because it went for $150+ on ebay, but he refused since he wanted to have it on lp and now they've reissued it. i've made that mistake too, either because i was afraid i'd never again get it on lp or i wanted to see if the price would go up any more. this explains why i still have three murder city devils lps.

^^^ depreciating every day

I sold JAYBIRD on vinyl and got a shitload for it...it was years ago when people were dumb enough to believe that band had any redeeming qualities at all.

good luck DAWG!

Yeah I saw vinyl copies of that listed for a fuckload on Gemm.com, though I don't know how reasonable that site generally is tbh. Saw the CDR for $80 on there, too, so hopin' I get somethin.

I will report back in 8 days for u cutty

it was years ago when people were dumb enough to believe that band had any redeeming qualities at all.

i think it was you who introduced me to their music! dooshbag of the highest order

MATT MEET SOME HIPPIES JAMMIN AIMLESSLY THROUGH THE FUNK-O-SPHERE, DIRTY HIPPIES, THIS IS MY PAL MATT...U GUYS BOTH LOVE DANK NUGGZ....CARRY ON WEIRDOS.

hahahahaha oh man.

shasta, put the singles on ebay starting at like $4.99 apiece and you'll be happy u did.

and you should sell me the spacemen 3 record.

that codeine record should sell for like $30 or more probs. i don't think most of the other LPs are worth much. 'cept the uncle tupelo. gilded palace of sin is also like a $25 record usually, the first press. i need to upgrade the sleeve on my copy. so tattered at this point.

WHAT DO U WORK AT A RECORD STORE OR SOMETHING LOL

funny.

http://images.uulyrics.com/cover/t/the-roches/album-the-roches.jpg

you're selling your roches record?!

hahahaha whoops wrong thread duh

Ugh, I hate compulsively going over month old craigslist ads, thinking that a slight change in wording is going to make people jump on it.

The last, and only other time I did this, which like this time was roughly 30 12"s of the same quality for around $60, I think I sold them overnight. Why can't it be like that all the time!

It got removed for copyright violation!

If you buy an album or recording on eBay that was released by a local band on CD-R, you're not allowed to list the album on eBay even though the band released the album on CD-R, because you're not the copyright owner.

I really needed the money :(

wtf? what if they're not a local band.

Yeah it's weird, and sucks. I wonder if I had kept 'CDR' out of the title and just listed it as 'Manhand 003' or whatever it is I would have been okay.

But maybe it's just Jon Moloney being a dick:

The listing was removed because the brand owner reported to us that the item offered for sale was infringing on their copyrights.

How is selling a CDR any different than selling a regular CD?

it shouldn't be as long as the CD-R is not an illegal copy of a copyrighted work.

yeah, that's what I thought.

Maybe they forgot that it was originally a CDr.

As you say, avoid saying it's a CDR and rephrase it "as originally issued on a recordable CD by the artist themselves..."

Or maybe even "as originally issued on a recordable CD by the artist themselves..."

the secret words are "artist's homemade edition"

Yeah I've had listings w/ CDR in the description removed before also - anyone willing to drop collectorscum prices on a CDR will probably know what's up wrt its exact format

Whoa, I have this. My luck I'll get eight bucks! Also have soome LPs from one kinda ridiculous thrift store haul that's all worth more than I thought that I should be putting up today some time. ♬♬Unemployed and sellin my shiiiit♬♬

I don't want to jinx it but, ugh, finally.

hey mobius, what record is that? the popsike link is making me login and etc

It's the Subversives - Tomorrow Belongs To No One, which auctioned for $101!

I think I jinxed it.

The craiglist ad title said "techno and house records", the description said "techno and house records", (and never was there a single thing written that would suggest otherwise), and I listed every record, with artist, title and label. Now this idiot first replies back saying he want's to take them all, then (after asking me to meet him in deep in the suburbs) he writes to me "and also i just want to make sure that there in good condish and there all like rnb hiphop elictro and all that ?"

If this guy doesn't have hardcore cognitive issues, then I've lost a good chunk of faith in humanity.

Also ha at "good condish".

oof!

if it makes you feel any better, the person from india who recently bought a record off of me on ebay for 250 dollars didn't end up paying for it because they didn't know that the amount was in "American money".

That's so many dollars!

that's bullshit, ebay always converts the bid price into "local" currency on international auctions... the price in rupees would have appeared next to the amount in USD.

yeah, i figured they were lying, i don't have the time to get too annoyed.

If you're logged into ebay.com, it doesn't do that local currency conversion.

Turns out that dude was in Grade 9, and was looking for good party music to play at high school dances.

I don't know if I should be amazed that 13 years old are on craigslist looking to buy used vinyl, but then again, given what I know of this kid already, there are probably bigger mysteries to be revealed.

Another batch, now it looks like dude's flaked out I won't lower my already severely discounted prices any lower. On the phone he sounded like a contemporary version of those two guys approaching Woody Allen on the street at the beginning of Annie Hall.

Just out of curiosity:
How often do you all sell records, and for what reasons?
To make back money? to keep your collections tight and well curated? Space and/or moving issues? Not liking stuff?

my goal for 2010 is to make record-collecting a self-sustaining hobby for myself

That should answer your q

my first foray into ebay—as a seller. camera difficulties, apologies.

reading this thread, it seems i've been doing it all wrong. charging single postage for double records and general under charging for shipping fees. i need to be stricter i think

figuring out the postage in advance is really a pain. my last batch of 45s shipped overseas all had too much postage stated, so i refunded all the winners after the fact.

more neo-crust

From the girlfriend:
47 records/cds/etc. listed on ebay -- experimental, art projects, pop, hip hop, japanese noise, NZ pop, etc.
"All are from the 20+ year collection of a former WFMU music director." for realz. Make that unemployed ex-music director....

and i feel sorry for anyone that doesn't have that Bird Nest Roys lp.

waxidermy set sale!

email me at plsmith at gmail if u want, u know ILX is my first love.

dude! how could you sell those JPSE lps?

fuckton of good stuff there.

and d'oh re: S.E. Rogie sold already

prices kinda avg, actually, have most of it all that i wld want anyway tnh

actually, yeah ,is Jean-Paul Sartre stuff that in demand?? I mean I have a couple things on Flying Nun but I never picked up their Matador stuff. like an idiot. just never would have thought it got that desirable ..!

it's not THAT in demand, and it's not THAT good either, imo.

i do want those JPSE LPs.

hardcore.

but i refuse to pay more than like 6-7 bucks, gimme a break

but i am a New Zealand-o-phile

meaning I will kind of buy anything...

i sold like 200 cds yesterday. a lot of really good ones. time to purge. i got 280$ credit. fucking amoeba. they gave me less than a dollar for a ton of them. said they were scratched. i just said fuck it. if i ever want to listen to this stuff again, i'll download them. kept a few that i thought might be worth something. like this one. haha. who's gonna spend this much for a cd?

http://www.discogs.com/sell/list?release_id=706&ev=rb

put that CD up for $60 bro.

loool does that mean I can sell my Chain reaction original of Multila for mad $$$? I'll take $60!

also, yeah I am really burned out on the pittance that I get for trades, I'd rather spend the extra time and get twice that on eBay or whatever. also hate seeing things that I traded for less than $10 of credit show up in the "collectibles" bin for $40 a month later.

note: this is written from the post-record-show feeling of what the hell do I do with all these records I didn't want anyway. Too much trouble to refile them (plus I want the shelf space), not sure I have the space in the house to keep them separated.

Anyway, I'll probably post the best 50 or so things here before they go to eBay, along with ILV discounts.

sometimes i wonder where the hell amoeba gets their "imperfect" cds because i'll go in there with a stack of cds in totally presentable shape but w/a super faint scratch on them and they'll push them back at me because they're not in "good shape". meanwhile i can go pay $5 for a cd there and it looks twenty times worse.

i've gone in there and been stunned at how little that store will give me sometimes. 50% store credit my balls.

bay area ppl shoul go to r3d devil in san rafael to sell

i can't sell (what i think is) a bootleg cd copy of the buckingham nicks album on ebay or discogs, can i? it's got a xerox cover and janky cd printing. i bought it at a store, but probably aron's in LA who sold boots (where i got the neu cds before they got reissued)

not sure abt discogs policy or level of enforcement, but ebay is pretty robust these days. go for terms like "privately pressed CD" or whatever

or just keep it

I had my lol-90's boot CDs on my table at the record show for $5 each... I really think those things have almost no value now.

made some sales, lowered some prices, proposed some trades: http://waxidermy.com/bbs/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=33973

yeah i found a cheap double at amoeba! i love that record, too...

HI DERE

http://shop.ebay.com/sleeve70/m.html?_trksid=p4340.l2562

10% discount for ILVers sounds good

sleeve, you see anything on my list (or anything u think i might trade in general) for the fennesz? the hurley is tempting, too, but i have the reissue, and am trying to be a little more conservative these days...

I see things I like but I am paying some dental billz and need fundage :(

(for the record I like Etron Fou a lot and might just buy that Schakfferson Jetplane from you anyways, would love the Partch but already have a CD)

didn't i sell u the etron!? :D

yeah, you did -- it just never really CAUGHT me the way i thought it would!

you're just flipping my records!

we're flipping EVERYTHING including our SLEEP NUMBERS bed right now. it's a purge time in the chabelsmith household.

Selling some stuff on eBay to pay for my cat's dental work! This is just the beginning, another couple dozen items to go up in the next few days.

is it difficult to set up a seller account on discogs? what cut does the website take?

I've been thinking about doing this myself. Haven't really looked into it yet though.

In other news, my Andwellas Dream LP has 2 bids on it now, woo!

nice, poo!

its easy to set up a discogs account. very easy. they take a cut of of the final sale price and that's it.

It's 6%. You have to be patient selling stuff on Discogs though, rare things can go very quickly, but most stuff will take years to shift. Super easy to list everything though.

heres the leftovers, deals for ILXors, whom i consider my REAL friends

http://waxidermy.com/bbs/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=39949

aw don't sell Vicious Circle! you should rock out to it tomorrow.

sold $300 worth of 7"s to a german dude on discogs with no feedback profile. money hit already -- is there any way to protect myself against chargeback and insure the delivery? it was $266 worth of records, so maybe the risk isnt worth paying $100 or something for some tracked/registered mail, but maybe there's a $50 option or something? dont wanna be paranoid, but international shipping for this much stuff just feels EEEE

you can surely find some way to get delivery confirmed or signature required or somesuch..? i've been outta the ebay shipping game too long.

there is an international priority padded envelope that costs about 16 bucks to go overseas and its more secure. you can fit a 7 inch mailer inside it. just has to be under 4 pounds. i need to get some. our post office doesn't have any but the usps will ship you a box of them for free. that way there is tracking at least.

failing that, make sure to send him the number on the customs form and keep the number yourself. if he says he didn't get it you can at least look online and see where it went. and if it made it to germany you can point that out to them and tell them to ask their post office about it.

<3 u guys

spending today going through 45s to sell on ebay. woooooo. sweet soul, rockabilly, unknown sci-fi funk, it's all there!

<3 selling!

I dread selling records! I actually wanted to start a thread about this. I just found this ebay listing by I assume to be a waxidermy guy selling so many amazing records. How does a collector sell records? I know this sounds like a childish question, but I search very hard for the records I love and the idea of selling them seems out of the question. Unless I find doubles of something, selling seems to go against the idea of collecting. A guy on discogs offered my $700 for my original of Good Morning Kisses the other day and even for $1000 I still couldn't bring myself to sell it. For me there's a magic involved in finding rare records and I attached to each one I find. Does this make sense?

totally makes sense! i struggle with it sometimes. but when i decide to sell stuff it's gotta be.. stuff i don't listen to often, stuff i'm gonna get at least a little return on, stuff that is not a part of my 'main steez' or w/e you want to call it. so i'm selling some 45s that don't get played often, and to me if i can make a week's pay or so with a day's work, then i can use that moeny to a) pay bills and b) buy other records that i might listen to more.

but i do see what you mean, totally. i will probably never see a few of these records again! and in that respect they will be missed.

i'd almost always rather keep the rare ones of course. sometimes it makes more sense to me to sell 30 more common records than 1 or 2 that are really hard to find and $$$.

best case scenario is finding $$$ stuff that you have little interest in.

unfortunately, i have lots of interests.

Yeah I mean money comes and go, I can always make money, but some of the records I have would take forever to find if ever.

every time i think about selling more records i'm haunted by that handful of records that i regret selling. it can be complicated.

I sold lot's of records in my 20's that I bought in high school, xpressway tapes, flying nun and lots of noise stuff that still haunts me. I didn't know then that they would be so hard to recover.

i was talking to a friend @ work the other day about how i wish i could learn to spot rare and valuable disco 12"s and shit. from working in a record store for a while i have learned a bit about that world, but when it comes down to looking through 12"s at a thrift store i rarely have the patience because it's always destroyed 80s/90s rap records and house, which i know even less abt than disco.

my one o.g. expressway tape is a cherised possession.
also would never sell my dead c singles.

i've sold a ton of stuff over the years. sometimes i feel regret. but i dunno i have lots of great records. and i find new ones all the time. eventually i'll die. i'd like to be more zen-like. i'm better at it now definitely. still, the only thing i really regret selling in the last couple of years is like ONE record! chris clark record on motown. it was so minty. not the rarest record in the world. just don't want to buy one online.

i've been selling lots of $$ reggae and that's perfect for me. don't feel the need to hold on to it. i keep a few cool things.

i'd almost always rather keep the rare ones of course. sometimes it makes more sense to me to sell 30 more common records than 1 or 2 that are really hard to find and $$$.

^^ def agree with this.

in general, in the past couple years, ive really cottoned to the idea of a freshwater collection (preferably one that is somewhat self-sustaining). basically, i LOVE hunting/finding/buying records, but i have a finite amount of space in my apartment. i havent reached that limit yet, but selling stuff i dont need anymore to make room for more stuff gives me more ability to buy more stuff. i mean, for example, i bought a SHITLOAD of punk 7"s in 2008 and 2009, and now im actively pruning that collection, and turning it into jazz. ill definitely keep my favorite 7"s, but this way, i can always take a weird risk at amoeba or go on someone's recommendation at a record fair or something without worrying too much about overspending/hoarding. sometimes, something i totally expected to love is a turd, and sometimes, something i bought on a whim turns out to be a real favorite.

as far as buying to sell goes, i will definitely do this, but i havent gotten to the point of going out record shopping just to find things to sell. again, for me, it's just all about if i can sell some dum dum girls record for $100, i can buy that mtume record ive been after!

I used to have a friend who worked at a certain book shop/record store with lots of traffic and he was the record buyer. Basically he would look for private press records to buy cheap from people selling them and flipped them on ebay for $$$. He had no interest in collecting, just wanted to pay rent. Always bummed me out.

Nice enough guy though

around 1977-78 or so (i was 17) i gave away about 350 rock lps, convinced that i would never ever ever again want to hear any of it again. Punk rock, man. i kept only Bowie, Roxy Music, Sparks... i had and gave away all the ZZ Top lps, CCR, early Byrds pressings, Stones, Mothers, etc etc etc... (in addition to all the Aerosmith, Uriah Heep, UFO, Scorpions, etc etc etc)

xp yeah -- that's the strawman i fear becoming!

not that i wanna have to rationalize resale to myself, but like, i just want to keep myself in the category of music-lover first, THEN record-collector, THEN ersatz record-dealer.

I'm not saying I don't flip records I find, I do.

yeah yeah! i just agree -- there IS def something bummery about the joyless hustlers. while i dont actually think that typifies most waxidermy dudes, SOME of them are completely insufferable, both in terms of flip-craze, and also in terms of records-dude sanctimony.

my one o.g. expressway tape is a cherised possession.
also would never sell my dead c singles.

― one dis leads to another (ian), Friday, 17 February 2012 19:29 (13 minutes ago)

lol I just sold my o.g. tape of A Beard Of Bees at the record show, made some guy really happy.

I have a separate sell pile that has been pulled out of the main collection over the years. It's pretty self-contained at this point, lives in a different room, etc. But I think it's time to let it build up for a few years again. before I do a convention.

I sometimes flip stuff I find for cheap but like Scott I have wide interests, which makes it harder.

the people who come to my store looking for "the good stuff" and find no joy in the thousands of decent cheap records i have kinda bum me out sometimes. the kind of guys who urge me to start a sealed record section so that they don't have to dig for ebay stuff. but what are you gonna do? there are also dealers who come here who are perfectly pleasant and i have no problem with hooking them up with stuff to sell. it takes all kinds i guess.

ditto the crate-digger sites that judge a place based on if they were able to find rare gold in the dollar bins. seems too sports-centric. i love scores and good deals and i like selling records for money, but you gotta stay human.

YES

I just opened all of the sealed records I was thinking I might sell. Sealed records smell nice and I felt silly keeping them sealed when I really just wanted to listen to them. The Bees Knees and Tom Akstens was worth opening!

xp i will never sell abandoned luncheonette for example

a dealer pal of mine brought me a sealed copy of the quintet's future tense album. sir douglas quintet without doug. never heard it! gonna crack it open now.

Nice!

jacob, you need a copy of the john buck wilkin album *in search of food, clothing, shelter and sex*? he brought in a sealed copy of that. he's got tons of them. i'm a fan. ian, if i remember, not much of a fan.

i owe you a record.

hey ian I am getting together a big box of potential sale stuff to bring to the store. do you guys buy late '90s / early 2000s rap 12"s? I got way too many of those. you can email me privately if you want.

p.s. we still need to get together for dinner sometime or go to littleneck or something

yeah dave, let's get together sometime for sure. also yes we'd buy some of those rekkords. we have a 'hip hop buyer' now who is there on thursdays saturdays & mondays iirc? but if you'd rather deal w me then that's cool too of course.

i picked up a few things to sell at the thrift store.
SEALED orange krush 'action' 12"--not a big item really; the 45 is more desirable.
dirty three 'sad & dangerous' LP (oop rare nick cave uk orig. but it's VG on one side so i might keep it.)
some brainiac LP that was a dollar and maybe i can get $4 for.

and i got a TIM POWERS book because TOMBOT used to rave abt him. lol.

i realised a while ago that i don't play any of my records so i am selling the heck out of them. except for my blue vinyl "tugboat" 45 which i am getting framed.

Wait, you would have a lot of titles I would like. Can you send me a menu?

Also ian, do you actually move early 2000s hip hop 12"s?

i realised a while ago that i don't play any of my records so i am selling the heck out of them. except for my blue vinyl "tugboat" 45 which i am getting framed.

are you in aus?

yes. no menu together yet but i will post a list when i am organised..

evan:
depends on the titles. it's not the best era for us, but ppl still buy kanye records and indie stuff. obv eighties -> early nineties is the golden era for that stuff..

Right. But the 2000s era stuff has got to be no better at selling than 50s vocalists records.

Thanks electricsound, I'm excited to see- I know you have a lot of early 90s gems, right?

a couple!

Hey Scott I am very interested in that john buck wilkin but you shouldn't feel obliged to send me a record. I don't even know if the one I sent is sought after or even known, just thought you'd dig it.

i don't mind sending you a record. message me here or via facebook with your address though cuz i don't want to get it wrong.

some brainiac LP that was a dollar and maybe i can get $4 for.

which one? I would def. buy this off you if it's Hissing Prigs or Electro-Shock for President

we have a 'hip hop buyer' now who is there on thursdays saturdays & mondays iirc? but if you'd rather deal w me then that's cool too of course.

awesome. I'll try to stop by some saturday probably. it's pretty decent stuff I think, Stones Throw, Rawkus, etc

the listings have begun..

You must have a copy of that Willie Tee, right?

yeah i got one without a ripped label for a few buccccks.

also, the copy i got is actually in worse LOOKING shape? but sounds great, so.. that's one good thing abt 45s. downgrading to a copy that sounds ALMOST as good and then selling the clean copy.

What's a fair price to sell Dexter Gordon's Go! original stereo pressing from 62? It's near mint, really a beautiful copy, $175?

I'd expect about $130 for that.

godspeed

plan is to see what happens on discogs here for a month, accept any offers >= $750, then if im unsuccessful, do an ebay auction with a $750 BIN and a $420 reserve. it's an experiment...

wellllllllll
since the record fair is not happening this year.
i may list some records here @ set sale prices in case anyone is interested?

I might do discogs and sell some posters and magazines on ebay

yeah, i'm up in the air. i might do discogs/bay.
wify has a lot of singles that we should put on discogs i tihnk.

i forgot all about that 78 you were interested in. sorry. its around somewhere. sold some 78s to T. Adams from nrbq the other day but mostly slim & slam 78s.

slim & slam! good stuff.

not a big worry, scott, but if you see it around i'm still innarested. i got some 78s in the mail tho and also put in some bids in an auction this month -- bids that would not have been so high if i weren't counting on record fair $$$

Do you not dig that Randy Holland record?

no i like it. but i have not listened to it in prob 2 yrs so..

i also like the janet smith record, ferinstance, but i don't listen to it much and want to cut down cuz of space etc. if i didn't need to buy a plane ticket to the uk i would probably not be selling as much of this stuff.

I wanted to like it more than I do, weird professional sounding studio recording for it being a private record. There's a few records in your list I'd like to snag from you, but money's too tight for the next month. Starting a new job next week, then I'll have the dough rolling in.

well, hit me up in future if you want. if they don't sell here they're not gonna go anywhere for a while.

oh i thought i could edit my posts here on ilv but i guess only sitewide mods can do that.

lettin go of 90% of my yazoos!

i can understand wanting to slim down your collection of country blues.
BUT i cannot understand ever ever ever getting rid of that mississippi john hurt. that is some of the best music ever.

p.s. thanx for the deal dogg -- if that fred van epps/vess ossman doesn't sell at $20 i will give you $10 for it, just because i need it, even though it is v much a marginal title.

Kept frank stokes' dream, charley patton 2lp, going away blues, hawaiian hotshots, and my two lesser vopies of dupes (furry lewis and harmonica blues). I'll probably keep what doesnt sell, but im tryna raise some capital for DC/sac'to digging in the next month -- id been thinking lately that i just dont listen to all these, but i do see them a lot, yknow?

see my attitude toward yazoo (and mamlish, and county, and herwin) is more like--
http://www.angelfire.com/pokemon2/pokemanias0/pokealbum/gotta_catch_em_all.gif

I'm interested in the guitar wizards and the country bottleneck just based on curiosity alone. Recommended?

Also isn't the Mississippi Blues comp still in print with a $15 list? I just got mine this past summer.

mississippi blues was one of the first titles reissued by scorpio -- they've now done 9 or 10 yazoo titles, i think, but the originals remain collectible.

guitar wizards & country bottleneck are both A+ volumes imo

Oh I see!

Thanks, another sent!

25 listed items, more to come later on tonight.

Where's the rest?

lol
i put 5 more up last night,
i have maybe 10 or 15 more to go tonight or tomorrow.
neighbors/friends had an emergency on sunday and we ended up watching their kid, which was more demanding than listing records on ebay.

haha I bet!

mexican blood is a cool band name.

it's a decent record but.... i don't need it.

hey Ian, I thought you were a big fan of that Bill Fox record ... decided to cull it ?

yeah man, i really did like that record. still do! but i don't know if i need it in my life at the moment. i think i overlistened to it when it came out, which resulted in my not pulling it out in aaaaages and just...not feeling it was necessary.

also i wanna save money to go to england this year hopefully.

what's the winston george thing neverheardofit. guess i could youtube it.

that ecology album is a hard sell.

paupers not getting a bid just pisses me off. love that record and nobody cares about it for some reason? fuckin' heathens. way better than a lot of other "rare" friggin' whatever psych records. don't even get me started. i have a mono and a stereo copy.

that ecology album is a hard sell.

It only really has one good song on it, but the cover is amazing.

ecology sold!
winston george is canadian folk-rock with psych leanings but is not that great.

^^ maybe too smooth for me i guess.

re: the paupers, yeah it's weird. it's not a very rare record but it is very good. i upgraded to a copy w/o water damaged sleeve.

something that really sucks is that since the postal rates went up i will end up sending $10 records to austria for a net profit of... $5 or less? :(

what a day to have listings end.

can't help but feel like a doofus

wait you don't charge extra for international shipping?

That blows, will eBay be upping their max allowed shipping charge in response?

international shipping i used to charge a flat rate of 14 intl, even though it was usually a few dollars more.
i forgot to up my flat rate on the items that were ending today, and once they have a bid or whatever it's too late.
if i went back now and charged people +$5 they would likely all complain and it's not really worth the hassle of irritating people.

i always charge 15. 10 for 45's. and i combine so if someone gets three 45's i still charge them 10 bucks. but i don't know what the new rates are. i've been starting good 45's at $9.95 for my auctions and doing free shipping for the u.s. i've gotten a lot more u.s. buyers since i started doing that. people in europe don't care what you charge them for anything. their money is so much stronger than the u.s. dollar. they get bargains galore.

they are kinda getting a 30% discount whenever they buy anything from the u.s. (don't quote me on that. i just hear this stuff from maria who gets paid in euros mostly for her freelance work.)

HELLO DISCOGS -- i will be continuing to list stuff all week in the hopes of making some money.

^ boy that's a sweet array!

that yellow princess better be a double!!

man, that shit grows on trees in the bay. pete will have three more by suppertime.

i told pete this a while ago, but!! whenever you find cheap fahey records, I will buy them at your cost + slight markup for resale here at record fairs.

just sayin.

people have huge boners for that guy. i mean, i do too, i'm not about to be selling any of mine.

yeah yellow princess is like a triple

i really want someone to buy that cure record btw!!! not rare, obv, but in the NICEST shape from a flea market (ian -- laney) not known for mintness

i assume the Lucier and Spiegels are doubles?

fukk it i am gonna sell that paul parrish. it is too sunny, i would never listen to it.
</crank>

i loooove getting fahey rekkerds cuz i don't need any of it. also basho. also bull.

think its so funny for some reason that there is a REISSUE of the ned doheny album. a dollar record for most of its lifetime.

doheny "re" is a boot and i'm sure most of the demand for it is euro club scene related. that first track is a banger, rest of it is pretty damn boring. i gave my copy away. that said, it may have always been a $1 record but it's a pretty damn rare $1 record. i haven't seen that shit for any price in a store in a long time.

i assume the Lucier and Spiegels are doubles?

oh DEFINITELY

i like the ned album. i like all his albums. all...3 or whatever.

i have the spiegel album but its slightly warped which is the only reason i haven't put it up online. plays fine though.

i really want someone to buy that cure record btw!!! not rare, obv, but in the NICEST shape from a flea market (ian -- laney) not known for mintness

I'll buy it, or trade you for it, I don't have that one

xp i know a dude who is really in need of a copy of the spiegel, if you dont need it skot. he might be fine w a lil warp? lemme know if youd part with it, and i can broker this shit.

dmr ill fb msg u

I will buy your Fahey and Basho records you all don't need, probably. I have most of the reissues, but am always looking for the other albums still hard to come by. The only Fahey record I can say I definitely don't want is the one with the Clapton cover on it. Oh and dammit that Homegas (speaking of Takoma I guess).

Also any other recommendations of yours. I am also very ignorant relatively about cool 60s and 70s rock too. I'm looking to know what is essential; it is embarrassing how bad I am about almost anything prior to the late 80s.

funny how expensive the windham hill basho records got. i guess nobody bought them when they came out? funny cuz they are the records people would tend to pass up just cuz they were on windham hill. or sell cheaper than the earlier ones.

"I will buy your Fahey and Basho records you all don't need, probably."

i always need them! cuz i can sell them in a minute. well, except for the *A Very Fahey Christmas* album or whatever. that's why i never keep them for myself.

Sell them in a minute to me!

Anyway, about those recommendations... don't be shy. Assume I know nothing because I'm sure comparatively to all of you it's true. I was always the 90s indie expert at the record store and referred 60s-mid 80s inquiries to another employee.

And with Basho Visions Of The Country is my most desperately needed.

i sold a copy of that to my friend tony. gave him a great deal. tony is in the awesome band sqrm. i love sqrm. they just played the other night with dropdead and i couldn't go :(

i think i saw one at feeding tube but they wanted like 70 bucks or something? some price i would never pay. they have a beat up homegas too for 40 bucks. i would like a nice copy of that. i bought some other stuff when i was there. a stephen r. smith album i didn't have. i love that guy. he's my basho! or something. i want all his records. bought a hala strana record somewhere else the same day. i might have to break down and buy some of his CDs online. something tells me a lot of that jewelled antler stuff doesn't sell for what it used to sell for.

Bummer. I'm sure I'll come across one of each (Basho/Homegas). Seems pricey? I COULD just look up the Basho on collectorsfrenzy to get a more realistic idea, rather than keep typing this sentence.

http://collectorsfrenzy.com/search?q=visions+of+the+country&search-button=

Well. Those last two copies that went aren't a good control? Copies prior are a bit far back to be relevant, too. I'd have paid $24 that's for sure.

i bought visions of the country for $5 at a stoop sale. it has a few scratches on it tho.

i traded former ILV all-star jaxon a copy of bobby brown's live LP for my VotC. only copy ive seen on discogs in the past couple years was $60, and i grabbed it for my friend.

something tells me a lot of that jewelled antler stuff doesn't sell for what it used to sell for.

― scott seward, Tuesday, 26 March 2013

I think you are correct in this assessment, which is just fine by me cuz I want all those records.

i have a very random mix of stuff up right now. kinda funny. stuff from the store that has sat around too long, stuff from boxes in back, stuff from home. and that's just the tip of the iceberg. should have a couple of hundred things up in the next 2 or 3 days. depending on how fast i am. i'm not posting this to make deals - although feel free to bid on stuff dunno if any of it will thrill - just to show how one person can accumulate a freestyle mix of old...stuff.

http://www.ebay.com/sch/snackyfresh/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=25&_trksid=p3692

that green power/cosmic climax thing is blowing my mind. hawaiian nyabinghi.

lol original evil dead script

evil dead II! i had that in the store FOREVER. for 20 bucks. nobody would buy it. i thought someone would be really happy to buy it for 20 bucks.

:)

i have a copy of that kevin odegaard record in my sell pile.

i have a lot of stuff like that. hard to sell in the store. i'm gonna put more folk stuff up. i still got like 200 things i wanna put on the ebay. partly cuz i want to buy some 45s next week and i need money to do that.

records are cool. i'm gonna keep watching your listings.
i bought too much in RI this past weekend so i should probably not buy things for myself, but sometimes you see something you just need asap

listed a dozen records today
http://www.ebay.com/sch/ooriono/m.html?item=251254192556&ssPageName=STRK%3AMESELX%3AIT&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562

i alwys liked that gale garnett record. i just like gale garnett. i kinda want that paul parrish record. didn't know the crofut was money? i know i had one in the store for a long time.

i don't know if that crofut is worth anything tbh. but i don't think i'd ever seen it before. even $10 is great by me for that record. the ADDISS & CROFUT record occasionally sells for a little bit.

i like the gale garnett too, but i can get a nice stock copy any old time. see if some dork wants my WLP.

skot if you want the paul parrish i will through in some free tarzan books

i was gonna put up a wlp of jansch birthday blues and then i accidently played it...

oh that's such a great record. my copy of that is a white label too.

someone please stop me from ever putting up stupid 80's dance singles on ebay. unless they sell for like a hundred bucks on discogs i ain't gonna bother. put them all out for a buck in my dollar 12 inch section.

i'm putting up some cool stuff today. kinda. we shall see.

i have a few more things i am on the fence about putting up.
playing now is this cool mid-eighties kinda progressive folk/ssw LP. "American Sunset" by Jack Adkins with lots of synths on it... some of it is awesome and some of it is awful imo. but ymmv &tc

http://headlampshovel.blogspot.com/2010/05/legendary-weirdness-and-mays-find-of.html

^^ this thing. it really is as weird as the guy describes too..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnPsvw7nM8U

"sunset beach" is totally chillwave.

the youtube link is one of the tracks i don;t like btw. i can see how some ppl like this sound. i prefer the more cosmic, less oppressive tunes.

jeeze yeah, the good stuff on here is really good. keeper./

http://www.divshare.com/download/11387057-44f

srsly "sunset beach" and "truth" were the cuts that convinced me.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUKBD_tO2io&feature=youtu.be

woah. jack adkins is not what i would have expected at all from the cover... wild.

Ian what was that Yazoo record on the wall in store next to the "warm my wiener" one? Is it a good one?

oh, man, i dunno... i'm not working at the record shop anymore..

Oh is that right?

I'm sorry I did not know.

no apology necessary! it was a shock but it's working out pretty well. selling records online is paying the bills, and i have lots of time to work on writing, art and other stuff i just never had the energy to do after the workday was done.

Are you buying and selling collections actively or just pulling from your own?

pulling from my own mostly, though i do a lot of thrift store/antique store/consignment store/stoop sale digging to supplement that. small chance of opening a store in brooklyn sometime in the next few months/year but that's still just an idea.

feel weird reposting this over and over on the thread, but here's a link to the discogs if you want to have a look at it-
http://www.discogs.com/seller/ivansrecords

(you can also become a fan on facebook, i created a page caled Ivan's Records.)
(Ivan is my cat.)

Great to know. Would be extremely interested in seeing if the physical shop develops as well! You know the SoundFix store is up for sale, not that the location has proven to be a good one, but the inventory might be helpful or portions of it.

Ian I am v psyched to hear that you are makin a go of it slinging sides on yr own! Fuck 'em!

Also since you and I have p much written each other through FB chat previously, and I have been avoiding FB this year, i wanted to make sure you had my actual email address. If you don't, I'll ilxmail it to u.

Ian, I have no idea how, but if you need any help along the way I'd be thrilled to help any way I can.

As in, moving things into a store or helping sell records at record shows... that kind of thing.

I only just realized how that sounded, I'm sure you're doing just fine otherwise!

Like, I didn't mean to sound like I was going to start sending you cans of soup and blankets.

put up two one of a kinda kinda things today. have no idea if anyone will want them. but the one bluegrass/folk record is pretty cool and i figure someone might be curious.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/230958009508?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

private psych single i was selling didn't sell for as much as i had hoped. but that's what i get for being the pioneer. don't think anyone had ever sold one on ebay before. sometimes it pays to sit on stuff and let others be the trailblazers. still, not bad. i actually raised the opening bid on it too in the last day. so, it probably would have gone for less. didn't want to give it away! thought there would be more interest.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/330899250106?ssPageName=STRK:MESOX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1559.l2649

Man, that's sick. Wish I had noticed it was up and had a bunch of money.

hmmm I googled that and check out this pressing plant discography!

http://www.buckeyebeat.com/musicol.html

yeah, i saw that when i was looking for info. a numero group boxed set waiting to happen.

i moved a few things over from discogs to ebay BIN -- three of them sold within 24 hours. all to the same guy in Oregon. Cool.

sorry, he's in California.

Advice wanted:

I have a lot of records to sell. A lot of common records, some easily sellables stuff, some obscure stuff that maybe nobody wants to buy (bluegrass, folk.)

there are two record fairs coming up.

the 20th, the table is $140 (inzane, thought i missed the deadline on this, nbd. brooklyn, williamsburg, hipsters.)
may sometime, table is $65 (signed up for this one already. midtown/west side, hotel ball room, probably weird old dudes)

however, now i found out from my friend i can still get a table for the fair on the 20th, which is likelier going to be the bigger fair with the younger, hipper crowd. so i'm thinking about it. HOWEVER, $140!!! AND, if i sell at the first fair and do really well, i might not have anything good leftover for the fair in may, which i have already committed to. i'm strongly considering trying to do both fairs, especially if i can get someone to share the table with me on the 20th. but it might be a bad idea??

what do you think record dealers of ILX

especially if i can get someone to share the table with me on the 20th
especially if i can get someone to share the table with me on the 20th
especially if i can get someone to share the table with me on the 20th
especially if i can get someone to share the table with me on the 20th

I'm trying to get kevin from whats your rupture to chip in and have me sell his crap there. a lot of indie labels have tables at the fair, and i think he could sell a lot of parquet courts records.

140 bucks is crazy. even for swanklyn.

yeah, it seems kind of insane to me. but i think i could probably sell more at that fair than the one in manhattan.

yeah, agreed that 140 is FAR too much. but i think the table-splitting is just a great idea, and will allow you to sell more, look around more, and drink more beerz!

i'm going to a storage space now to look at some dealer's overstock. wish me luck!

<3

bought like sixty recorsds from the guy.
mostly clean classic rock stuff -- spingsteen, doors, ccr, james taylor, joni mitchell.
highlights: four unesco collections of ethnic field recordings... 2 japanese volumes, 1 from azerbaijan, and sometwhere else too. clean xenakis recod. a relatively common one, but still easy 2 sell to hipsters. VG+ de la soul 3 feet high and rising. a bunch of UK imports of classic hot jazz from the twenties. i like this stuff. i know it's basically impossible to sell to ppl but i might keep them for my own enjoyment

i bought steely dan records too. i think hipsters still buy steely dan records.

some may call me a fool..

i better sell some more stuff. things are getting out of hand...

aside from going to guy's storage space and fretting about record fairs, i somehow found time to create 37 listings for sealed soul and funk LPs. they will start sunday. i think i will also list at the same time some random sealed garbage i have -- soundtrack reissues, country, AOR and later era classic rock. but sealed! low starting bids!

66 listings, i think i am done for the day. reaching my monthly limit! already! about half decent sealed soul, the rest a mix of sealed 'junk.' some soundtracks, a couple latin records, some rock/pop and a chunk of country... sealed hank jr, jerry jeff, mickey gilley.

Do you buy boxes, bubble wrap and tape in bulk?

I guess you must, but I feel like that would take up a lot of space if you don't have a designated office for it.

our apartment is pretty big, and luckily my wife has been tolerant so far. the larger problem is keeping the several hundred LPs stashed in a corner along with stacks of books in the bedroom. compared to that, who has time to worry about 100 mailers?

non paying buyers are just the WORST

got someone to split the table with me --
will be appearing at brookyln flea record fair next saturday, 4/20 (weed joke here).
come say hi.

non paying buyers are literal filth. I feel like they're probably also serial killers.

I actually had a guy not pay then in response to my negative feedback he claimed he'd received the record!!

http://www.zuguide.com/images/11513/11513.0.570.359.jpg

so, i'm kinda retarded.
the brooklyn record fair isn;t until may 4th. why did i have it in my head it was next weekend? duhrrrr
so now i have to do two record fairs two weeks apart. gotta hustle.

I mean a record fair on record store day would have been smart, actually. I think?

i was getting RSD and the record fair confused in my head.

http://https%3A//sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/10980_174339666057225_1069313051_n.jpg

8 days later...

Just a heads-up that I'm not ignoring this and always follow through with payment, no exceptions. I do get backlogged and generally pay everyone in turn, in the order the item was won. But nobody is ever overlooked. Thanks for your patience.

"backlogged"

ending tomorrow in case anyone here is hard up for some rare memphis modern soul

I'm probably goin to be selling of most of my garage rock and metal vinyl, the latter of which I have only a few LPs but the former which numbers close to 100. ebaying is such a time consumer though! I'll list them here eventually to see if anyone might have interest.

look into discogs. listing is much easier and sometimes you have something that will sell for way more on discogs than on ebay ime.

how bt daic

How abt discogs pricing? Do you typically avg it out from discogs prices? Check past ebay sales?

i think in many cases it's easiest just to beat the lowest price by a few bucks. but you should look at the other copies for sale and see what comparable condition copies are selling for. discogs also has built in sales history features which are useful.

brooklyn flea record fair is today in williamsburg on the waterfront at north 7th street -- i have about 600-700 records to sell of various types. both good and 'cool' and good and 'uncool.' also, the margins of my taste to be explored by the world. who will buy the conlon nancarrow LPs? only time will tell.

11-6 iirc?

How do I find you? I'll be there at some point. In case you check in here via phone...

HEY EVAN! you walked off while i was distracted, but it was nice to see you! sorry, it was kinda nuts.. exhausted now.

Yeah, sorry about that! It was a little too crazy to hover and my girlfriend was antsy. It was good to see you as well! I'm glad the selling was going so well.

meanwhile, i was fooling around with ian's wife. had a great night! man, they are good at that stuff. you guys haven't heard metal mountains until you've heard them in that sweet garage.

https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc6/255736_10152240757297137_1904655111_n.jpg

:D

I love the metal mountains. i was sad i missed the gig, but i got to hang out at home for rehearsals.

Kicking myself a little for not picking up one of the two original Yazoo records you still ahd there when I showed up! But since record store day I've been a little nuts and have to cool off with the spending a bit as it is.

Based on discogs, it looks like you had them on sale too! Aren't you supposed to do the opposite with pricing at record fairs?

they didn't sell!
i'll mail em to ya if you want, they're not going anywhere.

it's so weird what people will and will not buy at the fair. no one wants tim buckley?! no one wants flipper??

Yeah, for real. What was your big money-maker of the day? Or was it purely volume

I'll get back to you in a bit on those yazoos... I've been spending a bit too much on records lately, like floodgate style so I need to slow a bit. But I'll check in to see if you have them still when I can't stand it any longer!

one english fella bought close to $200 worth of stuff from me. mostly african records and new age; he seemed like a bro. also seemed like pete sm1th style jammage.

one guy bought all my sealed conlon nancarrow dupes.

awesome, good job!

also, ppl love reggae music.
if i hadn't been a beautiful sunny day tho, i would not have sold as many reggae records.

aww yeah britbro

i love that scott bradford record.

it's cool. but i don't need to keep it. i would never listen to it. i'm all about selling things i never listen to right now. i gotta go with it til all my records fit on the shelves. and frankly cuz i need the dough.

yah i hear you. doesn't seem like something you would need to keep.

i gotta go with it til all my records fit on the shelves.

I cannot currently fit all of my records on the shelves, I need a new shelf.

Ian, How is COUTO AND MULLIGAN?

i LOVE that Insight record! curious to see what you get for it cuz i hardly ever see it for sale.

oh man you are selling your levitts record you are crazy.

i like the stuffin' album a bunch too.

i should have bought your this mortal coil album. i actually need a clean copy of that album. i sold mine years ago and then got a not great copy. but its never, like, that pressing a need that i need to look on ebay for it or anything. i do love that album though.

man, i still have that record -- want to trade me some fiddle overstock for it?

couto and mulligan is okay. definitely a bit of a novelty, but weirdly intense at times.. would have to listen again to give you a more detailed description

i haven't listened to the levitts record more than twice in five years tbh

yeesh...

where is pete smith with commentary on what he needs?
i'd love to own the luther thomas 'funky donky'... and so many actuels I haven't heard. ESPs i need to fill in..

that glen spearman record... just thinking about it makes my lips tingle
