-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am selling off my record collection. Mostly they are all from the ‘90s and early ‘00s. I ran a small record label and distro back then, Fan Attic Records (based in Boston). During that time I was also a fanatical record collector. I usually only played my records 2 or 3 times each. The first listen I made notes as to what songs I thought were good. Then I added those songs to my 100s of hours of mix tapes and stored the records away. I have not had a record player in about a decade now and the cases of records have been sitting in a cool, dry closet for all that time. Now I am looking to move away in a few years so I figure it is time to find new homes for the collection.
My collection has nearly 4000 7”s and that is what I will be selling first. About a third of it is foreign bands, but I am starting with the US bands. It will take me a bit of time to get ramped up, but I hope to start posting a hundred or more records each week for the foreseeable future. I’ll probably start adding in some foreign stuff as I ramp up.
I will do my best to accurately grade the condition of the records, just be aware that I have no way to play them to check condition. I do know that when I was still playing them I put a sticker on the sleeve to note any skips I encountered on them. Records with these stickers will NOT be auctioned (though I may put together a lot of them at some time).
I will be shipping using mailers designed for 7” records, from Bags Unlimited. I plan to ship using Media Mail, charging $4 for the first and $1 each after that. That may change once I see how it works out. Buyers who want can request Priority shipping and pay the appropriate cost.
