For Sale - My record collection...

SOLD Quadzilla

Over 1250+ GOOD records from my personal collection. I found myself only listening to about 150 certain records on a regular basis, so why have the rest sitting here? I pulled a few of my choice selections and gifts from close friends and long gone audio oldtimers, and what's left is a TON of good music. These aren't a thrift store or curbside find I brought in from the rain, these are records I have owned for years, and purchased for a reason. You aren't getting 1000 copies of the Firestone Christmas Album.

Seeing as this is a local offering only - you are more than welcome to come "peruse" the collection being offered.

Ok, so what's in there? Well, to start, I'd say 35% of the collection is HARDCORE classical. Not the junk, the GOOD stuff. Duetsche Grammaphon, Verve, RCA Red Seal, RCA Living Stereo, VOX, Mercury Living Presence, London FFR, Phase 4 Stereo, etc etc. Again, the good stuff. Another 35% is rock. 50's to 80's, maybe some even some 90's thrown in. Chuck Berry, Elvis, Beatles, there's a dozen Rush and Zeppelin, Dire Straits, The Cars, Bruce Springsteen, etc etc etc. The rest? Every thing from Willie Nelson to Nancy Wilson. Say that three times fast. Grateful Dead. Sinatra. Bing. George Winston. Emerson Lake and Palmer. Neil Young. I could literally be here ALL night, and into the next.

PLEASE don't ask for an individual listing, it is NOT happening. There is EASILY $4000 here if I chose to take the time to photograph and list them individually. Take them, make some scratch (pun intended), or get your listen on. This is a VERY well rounded collection - great chance to bulk up your current collection, or would put someone new to the vinyl game in a VERY nice seat selection wise. Most are good to near mint, some could use a cleaning, some appear to have never been played. There are a few 'garbage' selections that were given to me by my grandmother - what was I going to say, no I don't want those? I'd say less than 50 for sure.

I know what's here, bring on the offers - again, you are more than welcome to come look - but I'm not entertaining splitting it up, it's all or nothing, at less than 50 cents a record. I might enteratain breaking it up into lots at a later day, but really just want to move it all right now.

Included in the asking price is the Ikea 'rack' that you see pictured, which wasn't made to hold records, but does the job PERFECTLY. It wasn't expensive, $149 I think, but I've had my records in this unit for over 5 years, and it hasn't budged or warped a bit. Solid. If you don't want it, you don't have to take it. Bring a truck. A BIG truck. Bring some friends. BIG friends. I know what's here, come over and see for yourself.

Questions? Email me, I'll give you my digits for a phone call if you desire. I'm in McKinney off Eldorado and Lake Forest with a fairly open schedule at present. Open to discuss partial / full trades for speakers / tube gear.

READ THIS: There is a good man doing GREAT things on this board with records - and I don't want to get in the way of that. I'll donate $50 of my own money upon the sale of the collection (I wish I could do more, but I'm selling to pay some bills), and all I ask is that you do the same.

Cheers,
Russ

*again, just want to stress that those of you that have given me gifts, or deals in the past - those selections are NOT included in this offering, those are near and dear to me, and will remain in my possesion*
