Selling an LP collection of jazz in Northern California


I went all digital some years ago and want to part with about 600 jazz lp's, all in excellent condition.  Can somebody direct me to anyone interested in buying the whole collection in the Sacramento or San Francisco area?  Thanks.

Hi Whitest,

I am a member of the Sierra Nevada audiophile club. We have a few members that would be interested in you collection. If you are local please contact me. I may be able to set up a meeting with some of our members to review your collection.

@whitestix I am going to suggest the harder task, but with possibilities to be the most remunerating for the efforts.

I assisted by buying some audio equipment at a estate sale.

The Widower, a Lady had been made offers for a Classic Collection that was turned down as it was quite short on what her thoughts on a value was.

I learnt there were Grandchildren of a age that could assist ands encouraged that the family assisted with recording the EAN Numbers on the Album and then current prices could be checked out with ease.

At a later time I was contacted and thanked, as some Albums were selling for the similar to the dealers offer.

Jazz is big in all Countries and certain Albums are big ticket.

I think the OP wants to sell the collection en bloc. In that case one cannot expect to receive catalog value for each individual LP. That can only happen if you sell one LP at a time, which is very tedious and sometimes contentious. And time consuming.

sounds like many of the reasons the OP may have migrated across to a Source that is Digital.

Recent knowledge discovered suggests Digital Source can be acquired for the price of Cantilever / Stylus to be used on a Phono Cartridge, with such info being available, Digital once more shows it has great VFM.

Over the past few years, on more than one occasion, I have been successful at purchasing near 100 CD's for the value of which one Typical Price for a New Purchase Vinyl LP. CD's in use have extended the life of my Stylus in a way that was not imaginable.     .
