    maybe because they were too expensive? most of those records are readily available (at least in the u.s) at less than half the price.

    not to pile on but the jack mcduff and groove holmes are solid $10-$15 records in mint condition (not $30+), the rest are all in the dollarbin common range, at least in north america.

    the grip is quite strong here, if you put out decent titles at reasonable prices people are gonna jump on that shit with quickness.

    Thanks age, I'll try it.

    Btw, get the merch?

    @ finelikewine

    Unless record selling is your day job, records at the 20 bucks level is not a sensible use of your time resources.
    As the price:postage ratio goes north of 4:1, I think your hitting tumbleweed territory.
    The grip is strongest in north America and the far east, both north and south of the equator. Since you are in the same loc as me from a global perspective, these are very expensive to mail to.
    Do add the 'email seller' option as members of other boards do lurk, and they may well be more local to you. I had a fair bit of succes in that regard.
    Finally, there will be wants lists and follow-up activity, all of which may double your sales, and which might make it worthwhile for you to consider adding some loss-leader items.

    I was not aware that they are dollar bin common, over here they turn up ver rarly in the field. You should see our dollar bins...
    I think I prefer to keep them than selling them for one dollar, as they are good records after all.

    I'm about to create a setsale list with pictures and soundclips and I'm rather clueless about the formating in the classified section. The last big setsale I did, looked quite ugly. Can I create the setsale list in garage sale to get the formating right and then post the html code
    in the classified section?

    Take your record boutique digging to the next level: Yves Saint Laurent is currently curating the sale of my last grails, all set sales, no bids/offers please. Most is already gone.

    Wow page 2 on this thread, 11 years ago when this board graciously helped fund my life when it was not in a good place. For which many thanks

    Sounds about right for YSL as a company. I remember this video of Jean-Claude Vannier playing his '71 fashion show

    I find the YSL website impossible to navigate. How do you find other records? I found this for £230. Digitally remastered

    I found the link I posted looking up a record in order to price it. This was the only result and I figured, why not make a lighthearted joke on the old Soulstrut board.... no idea what the deal is behind this, chalk it up to randomness and vinyl is making a comeback
