When possible, I think many of your viewers would also enjoy hearing a bit of the backstory of the seller on large buys like this one. As collectors, it's always interesting to hear how others went about acquiring their's over time.

I’m currently torn between admiration, respect, love… and blood-boiling envy😂 Awesome score, dude.

I'm so glad you were able to obtain this incredible vintage collection. The record Gods have kept it in great hands, because it is very obvious that the seller really took great care of that vinyl.. and love those reel to reels also..

A buddy of mine has a house like this. 55, never married and collected records and cds all his life. Upstairs is completely full.

I have a friend who lives/lived in Portland Oregon, unfortunately I’ve lost contact with him, I last visited him 3 years ago and he wasn’t in great health. Anyway he was a DJ and a Professor of music, has/had an extensive record collection, I’ve known him since 1972 and is in his 80’s. His collection is similar size to this one, just hope someone with love and care is treating his collection with respect!

Seen all that 80s metal, Ozzy, Dokken, Priest. Thats stuff I go gaga over.. I need that Ozzy Ultimate Sin...

What really sucks is when you become addicted to collecting, you amass so much that you totally forget specific items you collect and you either purchase them again by mistake, or they get lost in your collection never to be used or seen again, like they fall into a void. While I do not collect vinyl records (I collect fragrances, vintage and new) I can see how just having a shelf or 2 could create this scenario, so I can imagine how rooms and rooms of records can amplify this experience of things getting lost to the void.

A my favourite Dead Kenndeys album, wise pick 👌

Great collection. Lots of stuff the regular collector drools over.

look at all those MoFi titles :-) Fantastic finds and good luck filing all of them. Great Video thx for Sharing Dillon!!!!!

Man, the smile on your face is fck priceless...just unbelievable video. What a dream purchase ! Congrats.

Amazing. My brain would explode if I took on that massive of a record haul. Also, I bought that Talking Heads album with the plastic cover designed by artist Robert Rauschenberg back in 83 when it was released and yes, it was crystal clear and faded to yellow over time.

Amazing haul. I can’t imagine it was cheap! Next time I get back to NC, I’m heading your way to check out the shop!

your videos are always amazing! congrats on the haul :)

My mate pressed the Dead Kennedys album. Yes I live in Sydney Australia.

Very cool Dillan. The American Top 40 box set is a great find. It will all fly off the shelves no doubt. Happy Anniversary!

Simply amazing! Oh all those home collections in rural America that are waiting for re-distribution! That's what you do, Dillon. You free them. Your're a vinyl emancipator!

What hard work to pick up such a large collection. So much to see. With each record you showed, it reveled a little about who owned these 😄

Congrats on another great haul my friend! Always happy to hear!! \m/

Great video...what a haul! Hoping to visit your store at some point. Enjoy the new found wax!

Happy for you man. Great haul.

Holy crap. Amazing amount of records. You've got a lot of everything. Love your channel.

Enjoy the weekend! Congrats on another year for Noble Records.

Wow, you hit the motherlode! That guy must have had everything. So cool to see a fellow collector's enthusiasm!

WOW..super sweet haul man, a little of everything. Gear, tapes, LP's, etc. I wish I could visit your shop. Who knows, maybe it'll happen some day!

These are my favorite videos to watch! Its so cool seeing all the amazing records you find hopefully someday I will make it down to North Carolina to visit your shop, it would be a dream come true for me

I got a BEAUTIFUL copy of that first Lee Morgan record in a Goodwill BIN, along with a couple of other gems, Max Roach, and JImmy Witherspoon and others. That was the score of the year.

Awesome haul, covers all the collector's list

Absolutely amazing collection, with tonnes of essential records 👌

Totally amazing buy! One stop shopping. Thanks for sharing Your passion and adventures Brother. From Toronto Ontario Canada 😀 👍 ❤️ 🇺🇸🇨🇦♥️💯💯💯💯

What a buy!!! Congrats. As a side note...I finally visited my family in Mint Hill. I was not leaving before getting to the shop and meeting Dylan. Of course it was on the day the hurricane was coming through the area. I got a chance to flip through some vinyl and grab the MOFI Aqualung as a gift for my Brother. Really wish I had more time to hang out...but was great to finally meet you! Thank you for the great videos and the passion you share. By the way...my brothers mouth fell open when he played the record!

FANTASTIC HAUL DILLAN.

Great haul. The vintage gear could really be a home run for you.

Noble Records customers are the luckiest customers. I hope you guys know how good you have it!

Wow! Got some killer stuff there. Wish I was closer! Good luck with it. 😎

can't wait to see the gear. great haul of records. might just have to make the hour trip from salisbury up there this weekend.

Good , another good shot , Noble Records.🎶🎶🎶🎶

Hope you do well, looks amazing 👍

Love seeing these types of videos

Looks like an excellent mix for a store. Nice score!!!

Very cool. I love colored vinyl, one of my favorite things to collect

This is only in America- 10 years ago I was visiting every goodwill store and bringing home 5 to 10 boxes of records weekly. That was before and now all is about profit and score for the whole world to see.

WOW 😮 Fantastic , lucky you , and all your happy customers

All I can say is “WOW!” Awesome find! I have to get up there with some cash in hand and grow my collection!

Thank you for showing the reality of owning a record store, a lot of hard work and long hours

Wish I lived by your record store! Wow what a collection.

Congratulations on Buying this Collection

Another amazing score! I wish I lived closer because there are a bunch that you showed I'd like to add to my collection. Especially the Cure and Smith's albums, I rarely see them and I've looked in a lot of shops in 4 different states fairly regularly. I guess I need to add Matthew's, NC to my journies.

What a killer collection. Just phenomenal

Cara, que ótima oportunidade você encontrou! Sensacional!!

That’s freakin amazing. Congrats ! Oh and that Lee Morgan I think is his first release. Enjoy !

Great video! A lotta work goes into all this. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 🌴 📸

Great stuff! I saw Dread Zeppelin with Tortelvis in Vancouver Canada back in 1992 at a bar. Best live show I may have ever seen!!!

Love your energy ❤

This was a really fun watch.

Wow very impressive collection. I’m sure that it wasn’t easy to part with for the original owner so I’m glad it will be treated properly and hopefully enjoyed by future collectors for years to come!

Wow everything is in mint condition lucky you. The previous owner really looked after their stuff that's key. Bravo!

Pretty amazing video. I am almost tempted to make the drive from Virginia Beach to try and grab some of those Jazz titles. Good luck selling everything!

Holy cow, Dillon! You hit paydirt! I have that Dread Zeppelin album as well and LOVE it! I had a chance to meet and party with the band back when I lived in El Paso, Texas. I was dating a DJ at the time and we hung out with them! Such a great memory!!!

This is great!! 👌👌😊

This has to be the greatest haul of all time. 🤩

I should have been with you for this one!

Geez Brother!! Amazing Collection!!

Very cool finds you're showing! I got an Uber today and spent 5 hours in my local record store buying some great used LPs. And I decided to try out what you have mentioned before. I think it was you. I decided to just try something based on my initial look at the album cover. Since I'm legally blind, I did put on the LP and sampled three different locations on one side. It looked great but I had to make sure it sounded great. And just those brief samples made me glad I got it and I'm going to check it out probably tonight! I was laughing as you mentioned the four and a half to 5 hours It took to go through all of those boxes. Heck, it took me that long just to find 16 LPs I bought today at my record store haha. I do have one question for you. How do you know for sure when it is a first pressing? I don't see it listed that way on Discogs ever. I've heard all kinds of things like You look for the catalog number that begin with four characters instead of the regular two character letters and then the numbers that follow and other things too but it just doesn't seem to always ring true. I've bought some first pressings that I've been unable to confirm they were first pressings. There's got to be a way besides what's in the dead wax because even if you get all that information it still doesn't say first pressing on Discogs. T hanks for any help... Brian and Fort Worth.

Dang man! That’s an instant record store! Those bins be stuffed soon! Nicely done!

Congratulations Dylan that's a hell of a score bro

You have the knack man!!! Great collection.

Good for you Dylan, that's awesome man.

Huge Toad the Wet Sprocket fan - I love that you grabbed that signed Pale!

Pretty cool man. Good dig.

I’m going to echo the earlier comment about you buying an instant record store… seems like a franchise in the making. Congratulations on some great finds and keep spreading the good karma and good music!

That Santo & Johnny album sounds indeed amazing!

Amazing personal collection. Bet that person was a fun hang.

Nice haul man! There is a guy in Lebanon TN. That buys large collections. He recently was in Pennsylvania buying a collection.

Huge haul congratulations! I want to buy eleventy kagillion of these records

Great score Dillon! Now if only I can drive from NH to NC for your anniversary drop, I’ll be a happy man!

Very nice man. Happy 3 years! Too bad I'm in Maine. Would love to visit!

Cool to see The Cure records!

Awesome load!

As a collector myself I'm most impressed with this recent giant collection purchase...yer bread 'n butter!

Awesome.

Even with you whipping through stuff rather fast, I still found a jazz record I decided to track down. So thanks once again for broadening my horizons! Wish I lived close to your store.

I will say it now, The Smiths UK LP's on Rough Trade are undervalued. I got all their official studio albums earlier this year and they were like $50-60CAD each shipped (from one UK seller). That's a bargain since their reissues from a few years ago are pricey and even Canadian or US copies are selling for as much.

A deal you felt good about on a set of records that'll make the shop THE place to go🔥I live vicariously through you brother😁

I saw some of the record had the old Record Exchange price tags on them. That was an old record store in Charlotte in the 80’s & 90’s. Really nice collection. I can’t wait to dig. Keep us updated on when you are putting it out. 🌚

Wow all of this rare MFSL records, awesome 👏

Some very cool records! I'm a huge Sam Cooke fan. I wish you would've shown whatever album you picked up by him. His original pressings have been hard to come by already for years, and getting harder all the time to find them in decent condition.

I'd love to get my hands on some of those reel to reels

Insane collection...also it would be a crazy drinking game to do a shot everytime you said "really cool" lol

Super cool buy. I have that Talking Heads picture disc, never opened.

That’s funny. Because I just bought a record full of house, music! 🤣😂

I would absolutely love to have those albums, especially the Black Sabbath.

Drool!

This is great*!

Best record the Dead Kennedys did. Nice.

Good shot bud!

A lot of that music is one of a kind!

Nice !

I will be checking out your shop in the near future as i live in Knoxville Tn not that far away

Some great finds! Any Rush in that pile?
