Anyone Interested In These LPs?

Recommended Posts

A couple approached me in the thrift store wondering if I was interested in buying their albums. I stopped by their house to look at them and overall they're in pretty good shape. Most are excellent, some not so great but all very playable. They also have a bunch of Beatles LPs they're selling separately but I might buy those if the price is right. Most of the Columbia LPs are original 2-Eyes and the majority of the LPs were bought when the albums first came out. I can probably get all of them for about $30.

I'm not interested personally but I'll be glad to pick them up and hold them for someone local or I can put you in touch with the seller. There are just too many for me to ship and it wouldn't be worth the cost anyway.

Here's the list:

Sorry but I absolutely won't ship them.

I would expect you could ship them FedEx for about $50 or $60 but you'd be taking a HUGE chance unless someone spent a lot of time to find the right sized box(es) with good foam padding. That someone is NOT me. I'd be happy to put you in contact with the seller however I can honestly tell you the LPs aren't worth the trouble. Nice deal for $30 but not that great for $100 or more IMO. You have to understand that I see these LPs in local thrift shops for a buck or less every week. Not everyone has good thrift shops in their area.

Okay, Gary, let me see if I have the details straight. You will sell each record for 29 cents, after cleaning on your VPI 16.5, ship in bulk to Allan, who will then repack individually and mail out for $1.00 each, and each is guaranteed satisfaction or double our money back? Aren't you sorry you ever brought it up?

WHAT'S THIS! You won't ship? What's with that, it's only 30 or 40 packages and trips to the shipping depot. Come On Here Man!

Okay, give me some contact info, and I'll snag a few. Thanx

I'll call you tomorrow Gilbert. I need to talk to you anyway.

Gary,

Are these still available?[;)]

I ran into this thread doing a search. Three of my favorite albums were in that group: Bookends, Hermit From Mink Hollow and One Man Dog. The first is one of my very favs, great songs, stunning recording. The last two, not the best recordings but great music. Rundgren's whole catalog needs a serious remastering. The James Taylor LP has gotten the treatment a few times in the last 5 or so years, but still sounds like there's a blanket over the Khorns.

Have you reconsidered shipping these??
