Selling Your Vinyl Collection

[lastnightadj]

I'm currently selling off double etc - but I don't think I'd sell of my core collection unless I could do it in one shot - and Id want some good money for it too (so I guess it ain't gonna happen )

Definately mate
Am back from hols in a week, so will remind ya when I get back!

I've voted no way, because there are some tunes that I will never get rid of. I have a lot of stuff I would part with though, lots of doubles and as others have mentioned some Hard House shite and mailing list junk that I'd like to see the back of! The problem is that the stuff I don't want, no-one else wants either Need to find a hard house fan that's just won a fortune on the lottery...

Although saying & doing are very different things, its the 'i wish i had never got rid of them' feeling afterwards that i would dread

What a freaky coincedence. I have been seriously thinking about it for a number of reasons.

1, i live in a mates house and will probably be looking to move out in around a years time. I really will struggle to find space in a new house for them.

2, i have a lot of money tied up in them which would be better used for a deposit for a house when the time comes

3, i hardly ever play them. i always wanted to try take it further after having a few gigs playing out and playing on the radio but i have struggled to dedicate the time thats needed to make any vast improvements due to other commitments etc. They are no just in boxes under my decks collecting dust and really would benefiit from getting a new home.

I have collected since 2004 but spent a huge amount of time and money buying vinyl. A few years ago i would have been like "no way am i selling them" but things change like your priorities , responsibilities etc and so now i am looking at my situation and thinking will i really miss them, the honest answer is no.

My problem is when i come to sell them i have no list as of yet and i really dont want to sell them individually on ebay or oggs because of the hassle so ultimately i know that will effect the amount of money i can expect to recoup.

I suppose i need to have a good think and decide soon cause time is running out.

Well ive got a ten year old, who in a few years time will come realise what he's been listening to over all these years,

Keep-em in the family i say !

Funny how 5 people of the first 7 answers have bought tunes of me on Discogs this week....and your reducing your collection lol

I've never sold a tunei've liked unless I find a copy in better condition. I own probably most release of the tunes I like, I also have daft amount of some tunes, no idea why with 6 or 7 copies of some absolute beasts


I sell a few occaasionally from stuff i've bought but it only jsut about covers my own vinyl addiction lol

No, I don't reckon. I may sell/swap the odd one or whatever, but not the lot!

I'll only ever consider selling mine if me or mine were starving and needed cash for survival

Im in the process of gettin rid of my bootlegs for a coulple of reasons
1 i can rip em and and basically i dont think theres any differnce and
2. I have run out of room im buying about 15 tunes a month as there are some real bargains out there so space has become an issue.

On the subject of selling them all ... never i want a top old skool set for ma 80th
