| Selling/appraising your record collection |

|
If you have a collection of records you are looking to sell, or wonder what they may be worth, I do offer an appraisal / selling service.
If you want me to give you an idea of what your records might be worth, then you would need to send me a list of your records(please include record#--usually shown on album cover--on spine) and, as best you can
determine, their condition. I do not open attachments on my computer. I charge a flat fee of $10 (payable in advance) for assessing a collection(up to 250 records). If you have a larger
collection than 250 records, then it is $10 per hour more.
I also occasionally sell collections for other people. Selling a collection is very time consuming (normally, about two hours per record!). My
commission is 25% of gross sales. You are responsible for any other fees--for instance, e-bay charges a listing fee (about 40 cents per item), a final value fee
(fairly small), and sometimes an automatic payment fee is charged if the buyer uses an automated payment service, such as Paypal(about 3%). The buyer pays
all shipping costs. Alternatively, I also sell on the basis of 50/50 split of net profits. You are also responsible for shipping charges in getting the records to me or if you want them returned to you.
In sum, we'd want to be dealing with higher-dollar records to
make this worth your while. I do have a minimum charge of $10, payable in advance, for agreeing to sell a collection. This $10 fee is deducted from my portion of gross sales. If you have already paid the
$10 to have a collection appraised, then there is no additional $10 fee if I agree to sell them for you.
E-mail me if interested. Thanks in advance!
