Have any shinedown albums?  been searching high and low for them with no luck.

[Boydie]

I don't, I take it you've checked Discogs?

Yes it's true

[digicoinuser]

Can you share any sample images of vinyls from your collection, what are we working with here?   

[frankbitcoin]

I sure did.  The one we want was going for $650

Shinedown?  I remember they had one hit years ago, and that was before
the 2007 vinyl craze began, and way after vinyl died the first time.  They have
music on vinyl?

Anyway.  I wish you luck, OP.  Vinyl is the absolute best way to listen to music,
and I can tell you're a man of culture and good taste.  I treasure my record
collection.  It's too bad my record player is currently broken.

The problem from what I understand was that the albums I'm looking for were released in the late 90s, right around the time that CDs were what everyone cared about, so they didn't make many vinyls for their albums.  So one of them they only printed 600 of them, which is what's lead to the huge uptick in price.

This is most of the new stuff

Also about £10k in sorted vintage vinyl including WHO first edition, LeD Zep etc
About 5-10k unsorted/priced albums
And about 8k unsorted/priced singles

Can you confirm where you get your price estimate of £20k+?

Is this the price this collection is likely to sell for individually (easily), or is it based on nearly every item selling for an optimal price?

[digicoinuser]

Appreciate the listing and images of the covers.  I'll be looking through them in the next week or so when I get enough time to do some searching. 

Are you only selling these as a complete lot or are you willing to break it up?

[Boydie]

I spent £11k on records before closing the shop, which would retail about £18k, had another £8k new retail in stock, plus £13k vintage retail in stock, then bought more collections which I've never priced

[isoneguy]

are these the ones from the "left" secret compartment??

shame shame...you insult your gods.

They've got to be worth twice that...at least.

[Boydie]

Don't have the time for them anymore

I've got a collection from my father, with several records I'd love to listen to, e.g. the Revolver by Beatles, or Bob Dylan's Blonde on Blonde. But right now I have no turntable to play them on, and I'm stuck in trying to choose anything that wouldn't destroy my vinyls. As I'm a newbie in turntables, I tried to check out some information on the net and read several reviews, for example here https://www.whathifi.com/best-buys/hi-fi/best-turntables or here https://wisepick.org/best-all-in-one-record-player/, and many others. But there are so many different opinions, and I can't come to any conclusion. I'd rather buy something versatile and all-in-one, but heard that such items are a waste of money. It seems that you have an experience. What would you recommend?

[reviewcart]

IMHO: the best experience is directly from the label or band. Granted, I listen to a lot of music on small/indie labels, so that's easy for me. My favourites to date are Asian Man, No Sleep, Dr Strange (they also are a general online record store) and Bridge Nine. Have also bought a lot from Epitaph directly.

For mainstream stuff, there are tons of options, I've had good experiences with srcvinyl, and interpunk (the latter better for the stuff I normally try to get from the band/label directly, but they recently started carrying a lot more variety).

For used/aftermarket stuff, people have had decent (sometimes mixed, since its person-to-person) experience with discogs.

I sub to the 'audiophile USA' newsletter - they deal mostly in collectable stuff and are priced accordingly. I have never bought from them but they seem legit. I have been turned onto some great music from their newsletter. Worth looking at.

I bought a few new things off of eBay before, my experience was mixed, as one might expect.

I tend to avoid Amazon and Best Buy dot com, but really haven't bought any records from either, so take that with a grain of salt (my aversion is chiefly with the price, and confusion because of third-party sellers in the mix, in the case of Amazon).

What's the deal with the thread bump it's old and your post doesn't make any reference to buying the collection from the OP.

Just get a turntable or portable record player!
