    Good luck with the sale, Brian, but just a word of advice, and to be realistic.... Unless you're *very* lucky mate, you've got next to no chance of selling your vinyl, unless you categorise it properly, in terms of condition, and price each record individually, as Dean does, see below, which I'd use as a template:

    https://theartofsound.net/forum/show...mn-Record-Sale

    Therefore, what I'd advise you to do is list it, as above, in lots of, say, 20 albums at a time. Then once they've sold (or the bulk of them), listen a further 20, and so on, until hopefully at the end they've all gone.

    Also, some nice pics of a few of the LPs for sale in question, showing their general condition, both in terms of the sleeves and records themselves, would also go a long way towards getting them sold. Putting a little bit of effort in, when constructing ads like this, can often go a long way!

    Taking the trouble to do this when folks are looking to pick it up for a song sounds like it's not worth the hassle. I've 1100 lp's all in good nick and 1600 cd's all pristine, with past encounters, pop my clogs tomorrow and some vulture will offer the missus 50 quid for it all. Rather skip the lot.Try giving it away for free and see the crap you get. Bought and sold stuff on Audiogon for years, fair price you want it, you pay it. This glorious Kingdom, what's your lowest price, my answer is usually can you not read muppet!
