    Unless they are PROPERLY graded by someone with experience, they are not worth more than a buck each in my opinion. 20+ year old vinyl can be ruined by improper storage too. If they got too hot, to moist, not packed properly, etc can all lead to warping, mildew, or being scuffed up. Honestly, most of what you have is pretty common in thrift stores. Your best bet is to see if there is a used vinyl shop in town that will buy them from you, otherwise, donate them to goodwill.
    For rig details, see my profile. Nothing here anymore...

    These were properly stored.No warping or mildew at all.All original jackets and sleeves.Most of the vinyl looks like new.No scuffs or scratches at all.I took them to a websters book store/cafe and was told they would buy them for 4.00-9.00 each.(double albums were 9.00) I just wanted to give the polkies first dibs.CP is a graet place and has gotten me hooked on 2channel audio again.Im thankfull because my gear may not be the best but it sounds awsome to me...If you still want those bikerboy I will post them in the fm along with all the others I didnt list.

    That is an insane deal, I'd jump on it. I mostly buy from antique stores and goodwill. (my collection is around 3000 records now). $3 gets you pretty much anything you want, usually in perfect condition.

    It is isnt it. I see them for 2-3 bucks each in the fm sometimes.I only have a hundred or so and most of them are from the late 70s into the early 90s.Ill give bikerboy a good deal if he still wants the ones he asked for.Ill pm him to discuss it.I need some cash to get a new cartridge and headshell for my HK.I cant remember it it takes one of those straight or slanted headshells though.
