I like the accuphase gear, JBL 240Ti speakers and is that a sony turntable setup on top???

Professionally done sale too. Itemized price list and all.

Not sure why he wouldnt be willing to do a bulk deal thats within reason for him. Seems he has PLENTY to sell.

Buyer beware - I thought this looked familiar - from the Denver Craigslist - https://denver.craigslist.org/emd/d/denver-im-selling-my-record-collection/7122134452.html


I'm Selling my Record Collection LP + Singles + Box Sets

I have a collection of Rock, Pop, Jazz, R&B, Soul, Dance, Disco, Movie and Broadway Soundtracks, Big Band, Vocal Pop LP Albums, 12 Inch Singles and EPs and Box Sets plus 7 Inch Singles. Country, Classical, Opera, Comedy, ect. There are some rare ones here: Autographed, Colored Vinyl, Radio Station Promos and more. Stored upright in a smoke-free home in a temperature and humidity controlled environment. I clean my records before and after playing.

I'm not making deals or selling as a lot, each record has it's own price. I can also mail any album or single or box set anywhere in the USA for you. Write me for a list.

Thanks. Hope he gets what he deserves.

Potential scam aside, can anyone identify the components?

He's cleaned and listened to every record, but most are still sealed?

"Rock, Pop, Jazz, R&B, Soul, Dance, Disco, Movie and Broadway Soundtracks, Big Band, Vocal Pop LP Albums, 12 Inch Singles and EPs and Box Sets plus 7 Inch Singles. Country, Classical, Opera, Comedy, ect"

I'd like to see the list, 10 years of buying collections has taught me that if it contains soundtracks/big band/classical/easy listening then it's almost always rubbish.

Sony deck is 2250 or 2251??

Given how the ad has been written is it not possible he simply posted at many major cities country wide?

Lord knows I would consider doing so if I was willing to ship and wanted reasonable market value and took the time to listen grade document every lp.

Not saying it couldnt be a sham but I feel this is very possibly legit given how it's not painfully obviously a scam like 90+% of clist scams.

Who knows. That pic sure came from a listening room of someone who gave a damn. That much is certain.

You guys sure sleuthed that one out. AK is really impressive sometimes.

I was going to say something, but then that Tineye search made me shut my mouth. Nice tool!

At a minimum, stolen image.

However, I do understand someone not willing to do a bulk sell if they had spent all that time and energy in maintaining it.

I have just gone through my collection of 1500 records (I think I may have up to 300 more) and pulled out almost 500 records to sell. If you sell individually, you maximize your return. If you sell in bulk, maybe $1 to $3 per record. If I could sell my record collection for even the minimum Discogs value, I could get $10000! No way I would get more than 2-3000 if I sell in bulk.

But I have a strategy. Any records that I deem worth more than $30, I will sell individually. The rest I am willing to part with in a bulk buy. That will give me the best of both worlds!

Funny thing of tineye's 44 hits craigslist is not part of the results I noticed.

Another useful image comparator in the sea of em.

Given how often pics on the net get saved by so many and used for who knows what. I can see how the results dont paint a definitive story in many cases.

Dunno if it's real or not. I need to sort through my massive collection and not in the buyer realm. I'm kinda scared to begin that one lol.
