Discourage Records

I do buy from individuals. The nicer the condition, the better, but I can consider records in lower condition if they are rare.

FAQ

What types of records do you specialize in?

I specialize in punk, metal, and hard rock records, but I am open to looking at and potentially buying records from all kinds of genres.

What do you require to evaluate my record collection?

If your collection is just 100 pieces, I would be happy to look through them and let you know which ones interest me. At that point, I could make you offers to consider.

How can I provide you with details of my collection?

You can forward a written list of the artists in your collection by email. If not, perhaps you could read them off to me over the phone, or we could make an appointment to meet.

What factors influence your decision to buy a record?

It's on a rather case-by-case basis. Condition is important, but rarity can also make a lower condition acceptable.
