Raining Records !!! An Unexpected Haul

Please read:
This was an awesome and surprising record haul for me! I think the guy selling was frustrated with trying to get rid of them. He had been trying for days to sell them all. Plus, he was probably tired of putting up with the musty smell in his SUV. Fortunately, only the records in the cardboard boxes were the smelly ones. Unfortunately, most of the records in the cardboard boxes are way too damaged from poor care and mold to be salvaged. I will probably have to trash many of those.
The stacked unboxed records were mostly in VG to near mint condition and thankfully free of water damage and mold . Many still had shrink wrap and some were still sealed. Many were promotional records marked with radio station info and stamped "Discarded". I guess that explains where these came from.
Thanks to all that watched the video and have read this note.
Peace...

I laughed when you said "I dont want to waste much of your time" the reason I'm here is to waste time. Make the videos 2 hours lol.

Nothing better than being at the right place and the right time for some exciting lots. Been there and it's a amazing feeling my friend. You did great! Cheers Flash.

Amazing vinyl haul! Those 90’s pressings were very few and far between. I have a section in my collection with vinyl from when I worked at a record store in the early 90’s. I wish that I would of got more. No one wanted them, so ones that my manager didn’t want, he would throw my way. But there’s some amazing albums in there. I still keep in touch with a couple of coworkers. They never brought home any vinyl. Our manager had thousands of albums in his house, I’ve never seen that many, still haven’t in one collection. If I only knew then, what I know now…. I’m sure many of us say that. My Dad got back into vinyl before I did. It took me living in China, listening to the vinyl guide podcast to get the bug. I started sharing it with my dad, and we really connected with our love of albums as a whole and the magical sound of vinyl. Thanks for a great video!

That Ramones album goes for around the $35 mark. Excellent stuff here. Enjoy the tunes.

Most of the records in the two cardboard boxes were moldy, smelly and damaged. I cleaned a few to donate to thrift stores and and threw the rest away! I am still cleaning and going through the ones in the Tupperware crate. Most are keepers!

@captainwhackencracker4589 4 жыл бұрын

I was a huge Split Enz fan when I was younger. Incidentally, Neil Finn was in Split Enz and Crowded House. He (and Mike Campbell) replaced Lindsey Buckingham in Fleetwood Mac. I saw Man Or Astroman? live a bunch back in the 90's. They were a fun surf/instrumental/punk band from down South. Their records were good, but you really had to experience them live. I'm friends with Weird Paul on Facebook. He's one of the original vloggers and he plays in an indie band. Your money is in the last plastic bin that you went through. You'll definitely make your $25 back on that stuff. The rest of the stuff, I'm not so sure about. That's cool, though. You helped the dude out that needed the money. You got some stuff to flip. Like you said, you can trash the rest if it's moldy/too far gone. Good haul!

oddboxTopper Hey there...I wasn’t accusing you of anything nefarious, I was just laughing at the fact that many of those albums go for more than $25 alone! That’s a great haul. He got ripped off because of his hurried approach to getting rid of them. Be blessed...
