But only the bullshit and doubles. Need to stay lean in case I need to move. I don't know what the best place to unload the real crap is though. Goodwill/flea market?
Bay Area People, any ideas?
all i collect is rap really!!!
holler at me on the PM tip please
Dudes, this does not constitute selling your collection.
This is pruning an assemblage of junk into something resembling a collection.

oh no doubt.
I aint sellin shit.
Besides would the rate$ be suspect in these times?
Correct on both counts, but it is recession related. I'm just can't see trucking several hundred dollar bin joints halfway across the country ever again. I need to
Sell it to Justin, but also over the hill in Santa Cruz my friend Brandon is always buying cheap stuff at The Krate. And whatever he really cant take you can bring to Logos for some money.
150-200 hiphop records on wednesday?
gonna have quite a few goodies; constant deviants competition catch speed knots, 2 different slum brothers, several frankenstein joints, third sight etc.
As for my personal stuff, I am not thinking about selling the whole lot, even though I'm about to move. As many have stated, i'm pruning through ebay and discogs, and the occasional record show. Thinking about having some heads over for a kind of record yard sale/beer drankin saturday soon.
If anybody needs some blazing Downtempo or Rawkus deadstock gold holler. I usually never listen to hip-hop while I'm relaxing at home and feel that is something that can go all digital.
yeah, the thought of just keeping everything is somehow appealing but it also seems wasteful to just sit on all this stuff worth tens of thousands of dollars and not really doing anyhting with it... also if you're moving from continent to continent every couple of years, it's just too much to worry about.

HIGHLY recommend it to anyone doing a major cleanse.
One gentle collection purge every year does it for me. Finished my last one a few weeks ago and I gotta say it always feels like taking a shit (and we all know how priceless that feeling is).
i wish my collecting habits were as focused as this
So, any artist that isn't black then?
How can I be down?
