Besides, 60 years from now some young whippersnapper is going to be asking the same sorts of questions about my horde of DCC, MFSL and Audio Fidelity 24K Gold CDs and SACDs.
I’m very curious to hear all of your suggestions. On the other hand, we’re not looking to price gouge either. Do we sell items individually or as a lot? Does someone come and get it or do we ship it or take it somewhere? Again, we don’t want to get taken advantage of. What’s the best way for us to determine the prices for all of this stuff? And where do we take it to sell? We don’t really have a lot of time to invest in this effort. One that I recall in particular was a four record set of Irving Berlin's “This Is The Army.” It included a book and another insert (I think with cast and credits) and it was probably in near mint condition much better looking than this $80 BIN one currently on eBay. The colors of these folders still looked amazingly pristine to me over Skype. My dad says there are maybe 100 – 200 single 78 RPM records in individual nondescript sleeves, but there are also maybe 15 or so multi-record sets in very colorful book-like folders. They have all been stored in boxes in a dark, dry location, untouched for probably 50 years. Last night my dad showed me a few of these records over Skype and the ones I saw appeared to be in very good to near mint condition. My dad and I are starting to help her find new homes for these items, and we want to get a fair value for them without getting taken advantage of (because the proceeds will be going back to her to help pay bills). It turns out that her husband (now deceased, and who was about 10 years older than her) amassed quite a record collection in (I assume) the late 1930’s through the 1940’s. I began lurking here 11 years ago, became a member 8 years ago, made my first post 5 years ago, and I’m finally starting my first thread!Ī close relative (now in her 80’s) is liquidating some of her possessions.
