    Damn, $100 is still pretty steep for me. Here's to hoping they do another pressing for the 20th anniversary in 2024!

    Hey all. Been pretty much out of the vinyl game for years now and was wondering, what's the best way to sell these days? Used to sell a little on eBay and discogs, and vinyl collective I believe?
    My collection has sat in boxes for like 4 years and I'm really just trying to move it all I think. Any recommendations?
     
  3. eBay and Discogs are still probably your best bets. If you just want to offload the stuff in one transaction you could probably take it to a physical record store or sell it as a lot on eBay, but you're not likely to get top dollar for your collection that way.

    If you have anything of value and want to get a decent return for it you will probably have to sell it piecemeal, though obviously that's a lot more time consuming.

    I prefer eBay because I’m lazy and will automatically calculate/combine shipping for you

    i upgraded to a pro-ject but kept my LP60 for the living room. A simple table with a decent Bose mini speaker that I can use for guests.

    We reach for the longest shadow

    I finally pulled the trigger on a Fluance RT85. Got it in white. Comes with their acrylic platter (claims it helps sound, I mainly think it looks dope) and the Ortofon Blue cartridge, which seems to be pretty universally liked. I'm pumped. Now to figure out how to sell my AT-LP120...

    EDIT: Also picked up the Art DJ Pre II preamp since my AT had one built in.

    Acrylic helps mitigate static. Also looks cool.

    is it the same for you? Prestigious

    I've been sitting on a $100 off a turntable reward for my local record store for a few months, but I might try to see if they can sell me one of the Debut Carbon EVO ones. I'm a bit disinclined to get one of the regular Debut Carbons because I'm lazy and don't want to have to switch the belt manually.

    I would've gotten one of those if it was the same price as the Fluance. The Fluance is $500and the EVO is $600. Getting an EVO for $500 would be awesome.

    There's a pretty decent sale going on at Rough Trade's website now. The only frustrating thing is they don't indicate if the sale is for the vinyl version or cd version until after you click on the product.

    It's been a long process, but I'm finding some good stuff.

    Looks like a lot of the good stuff sold out yesterday.
    The ones still available that I'm contemplating are Coheed's No World For Tomorrow ($16 with side D etching), Georgia Maq's Pleaser ($11 pink variant) and Sara Bareilles' live album ($20). I hate to pass on these but I'm also trying to be more responsible with my vinyl spending this year lol

    Yesterday I saw good deals on Death Cab, Elliot Smith and Charly Bliss releases, but they're sold out now.

    $16 for NWFT is crazy, if the packaging and detail is as good as the OG pressing that's a no brainer. One of my favorite records for sound and presentation.

    I went to pay and it said it was sold out also. Then I tried again, just to see, and it worked. I thanked my lucky stars on that one.
