Frequently Asked Questions
Do you travel to view collections?
Do you travel to view collections?
If the collection is large enough we will travel to view the collection to gauge the quantity, quality and diversity. We know how difficult it can be to do justice to a collection of thousands of records, and there really isn't anything better than seeing the selection 'in the flesh'.
We will travel all over the country looking for fantastic collections to add to our shelves, so wherever you are, don't hesitate to send us the details.
How much do you pay?
How much do you pay?
This is dependent on so many factors it is impossible to answer in a few short lines. A pristine, unplayed, small collection is a very different prospect from a large, heavily used one. Below are a selection of the criteria we will use to determine the offer made:
- The condition of both the records & the sleeves
- The proportion of records in picture/company sleeves as opposed to plain white sleeves/unsleeved
- Quantity (overall size of the collection)
- Collectability
- Provenance
- Location
We will usually be able to give you a rough estimate over the phone prior to viewing the collection.
The one thing you can count on is that our offers will be very competitive and we will be transparent, fair and honest throughout a transaction which we'll attempt to make as easy as possible for you.
