I'm about to list a huge lot of records on discogs. A lof them are common records in flawless mint condition. Shit looks unplayed.
How to I price them in comparison to other record listed as nm? I see a lot of them go for insane money. I'm not sure if the people are just mad buying them at these prices. Please advise!

    Median discogs.
    Midpt between median and highest on discogs.
    Do you want to move them quickly or max profit?

    I would prefer to move them quickly, as I need some space in my flat again

    If you have clean as a whistle shit at median range discogs I'd *think* they'd fly, but nothing's guaranteed, so who knows...

    If you're not an established seller and you want to move them fast, I'd say go for the lowest price (as in that specific condition, not overall)...also if they are all nm, that helps with returns but expect postage delays and customer service issues if you sell alot of records...

    some dudes in Switzerland were telling me that there are collectors in Russia or something who pay top price on discogs for any NM and sealed records, so you could hold out for those people to turn up. But I'd put the price lower if you're more interested in getting rid of them.

    I already had a lot of orders from Russia. Maybe I should just move there and open a record shop with all the stuff I have. But it's grim over there. Not sure if I could bear it.

    Jazz records are a hard sell on discogs, aren't they? They are for some reason my worst selling genre, despite the fact that I have some really cool stuff.
