FAQ

How important is the condition of the vinyl records?

Condition is very important. We need to examine the records in person to determine their condition before making a purchase.

How do you determine the pricing for vinyl records?

Pricing is based on demand. Records in high demand or those that were produced in limited quantities may be priced higher.

Can I submit a list or samples of my records for preliminary evaluation?

Yes, if you have a list or some samples you want to send, I can give you an idea of what we might offer. This can be a useful step before bringing your entire collection to the store.

What compensation options do you offer?

We offer both cash and store credit. For store credit, we pay 50% of our retail price. For example, if we plan to sell a record for $20, you would get $10 in store credit. In cash, we would likely offer between $5 and $7 for that same record. For higher value records (above $50), we often pay more, like 1/3rd to 1/2 of the price in cash.
