Need some friendly advice...

I, unfortunately, am being forced to part with some of my vinyl collection (due to some unexpected bills). For sale I have:

(all 1st printings)
Ten, Vs, Vitalogy, No Code, Yield, Binaural, Riot Act, Avacado, Backspacer, Lost Dogs, LO2L, LO10L, Into the Wild (w/ No More), and Eukele Songs.

All are opened, but in great condition. I am super reluctant to sell these, but desperate times call for...you get the picture.

Any advice on the best way to sell these (as a set or separate), and hopefully get them to a good home, would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

    I would say separately would be the way to go. Alot of people looking for vinyl have bits and pieces and aren't looking to buy the whole collection in one shot. I'd say if you split it up, you'd be able to sell most if not all of these pretty easily if the price is right. If you don't want to split it up, you could try ebay, might have better luck there.
    And if you want a good home for a couple of these, look no further than this guy:

    The best way would be assign prices and sell them here.

    I would buy Avocado and Lost Dogs. I'd love to spin those!

    if you need money, sell them individually on ebay to get the most you can. it's great to be able to share and deal here, but when you're in a financial pinch, you need to do what's best for your wallet.

    that said, ten/vs/vitalogy/backspacer/loxl/uke songs might not get as much attention, so you may be able to sell on here what they would go for on ebay or near that. frankly, i'd just keep backspacer/loxl/uke songs since they're still readily available and probably not worth the effore to list.

    What he said. I fully support keeping it within the family but if you're in a financial pinch, do what you need to do to maximize your return. Legally, of course, don't go dealing drugs or anything :mrgreen:

    Sell them here. I'd buy Binaural or LO2L. Can't do both right now but would definitely buy one of them. Good luck to you.
