For my collecting post for today, You’re never going to believe what I just got. I went to my local record store looking for some new stuff, and I ended up helping him out with some collections that he was getting in that day. After I did that, he told me he set something aside for me, since he sets aside stuff for regulars who might be interested. When he pulled it out, my jaw hit the floor; it was a original pressing of the first Stooges album. It wasn’t in the best of shape (like a visual G±low VG), but it still played very well on the turntable like a VG record, and the cover was at least VG+. The owner said that someone had recently come in with a stack of records with mostly boring stuff and he only pulled out a couple things, with this record being one of them. He ended up letting me have the record for only $40! Again, I will note that the record plays to a VG level, so its still very listenable. Overall, I am very happy to own this record, so now the only original Stooges record I’m missing is Funhouse.
Off topic, but I’m wondering if this would be a good place to post my collection I inherited from my dad? I’m not a vinyl person (or really even a music person) so they aren’t doing me any good. I’d like to sell them, but don’t want to get lowballed, and I feel like there’s some gems in there.
what kind of stuff is in the collection?
Classic rock mostly. Zeppelin, queen, deep purple, black sabbath, etc. But there’s also some I’d never heard of (I don’t have the collection out right now) and a few that are unopened.
@XbSuper And you don’t want to use discogs?
I don’t even know what that is lol. Odds are that I do not, I listen to all my music on Spotify.
Ya that’s not something I’m interested in, I just want to sell them for a fair price.

I believe it’s for people who like to collect physical media, to keep track of their collection.
Old roommate had a large CD and Cassette collection and she went on about it sometimes.
Nice pickup! What method do you use to clean the used stuff you get?
Good you posted this again, the last one seemed flooded with haters.
Super interesting, I don’t know anything about collecting vinyl. I imagine 40 is a really good deal
$40 is kinda the high end for a good oldie or a high quality new. Over $40 becomes something special. The OP got something very special for $40
Here’s the discogs page for it, average price is over $200
