Audiophiles / Vinyl Collectors / Buy & Sell

Recommended Posts

So I collect music, mostly classic rock have have an amazing collection of over 3,000 albums and probably 2,000 CD's.

I've recently been gifted over 1,000 albums in amazing shape, some are worth a pretty penny.

 The problem is I want / need to get rid of many of them them and would love to make some money in the process.

I've been researching their basic worth on DISCOGS and logging that info so I'm in the ballpark when I'm either selling or trading.

Do any of you sell on DISCOGS or EBAY?

I sold a lot of football cards on eBay in 2020. Shipping was already expensive versus the last time I've sold about five years earlier & I expect it's far higher now.

EBay and PayPal fees have also went up a lot & buyers also have to pay sales tax at the time of purchase if they live in a state that has one. 

 

You can sell up to $2500 worth of items on eBay for 2025 before a 1099 materializes. Next year that amount drops to $600

One more thing about eBay that may interest you. They always side with the buyer when any type of problem arises.

 

If you want to see what vinyl has been selling for on eBay recently, you can choose completed listings. Here's an example for bachman-turner overdrive not fragile
