Anyone actually managing to sell vinyl?

[Huddylion]

Still can't make my mind up whether to list any vinyl

Had18 bids in last night on my vinyl on a returning buyer from the states, am not going to share him around though cos he likes me

Hi All!
I'm very much baffled by the way vinyl customers have tailed off. I do still list a few records on greedbay, but only to keep web-traffic coming to my site via links.. Most of my customers are from everywhere in the world except the UK. I can only guess this is because of the exchange rates at the moment.
Anyway im going to list some vinyl on ebid and see how it goes. Does e-bid seem to attract buyers from certain parts of the world? I would like to hear your opinions.
Best regards to all.
Simon.

I've sold a few records here and over ont he other side. Things do seem to have slowed down a little. I'm still buying, if you are selling the right stuff!

Put a signature link into your posts, then us vinyl sniffers can take a gander at your wares.

I must find time! Feel free to e-mail me a wants-list if you have one.
Regards.

I actually meant a link to your Ebid store or stores - For an example, click on mine above. The main image link is a bulk list of everything I currently have listed, then the individual store names will take you just to the items which will be of interest - ie OUT ON THE FLOOR for records etc. - My links don't draw anybody away from Ebid, as I think that may be against Ebids policies - (May need confirmation of that.)

With regards to my own wants - It's just 45's - (I'm not really into LPs.) - And only those from the 1960s Soul side really.

List away, and I will look.

Just sold a single, mind you it's to Huddylion who buys everything so not sure that counts.

Everything counts. Huddy's bought a few of my records too - (He picked up a couple of pretty obscure ones from me too!)

I've just picked up a complete monster!!! - See this smile? - That's me that is! - I now have 2 copies of Vick & John - Don't Dish Out on the Allert label. So one of them will probably be going back up for sale in due course. I know it cost me just under $30, but I'm given to understand this is quite often a $75+ disc, so of course my grin is nine miles wide.

NOW - Here is something for fellow record dealers to consider:

I would never have looked up - Vick & John, because until I saw this listing, I had never heard of them, same with the ALLERT label. I just looked up Northern Soul. After finding it, having it arouse my interest, I did a bit of research, found a sound clip, and decided I had to have it. - I then did a search on the name on Ebid, and the other side - (both .co.uk and .com) - I did find 1 more copy, and with the fear of being outbid on one, decided to bid on that as well..... But that's all a convoluted story to make this point.

When listing records - It is worth putting in the title, the genre it belongs in - Even avid collectors don't know all the tracks that are out there, even in their own specialised field.. It worked for the seller I bought from, got her her first sell with a more expensive item, plus an additional 3 picked up records at regular / low price.

I see many of the big record sellers here, with 1,000s of 45's listed, but they are all bunched into one section - 45's. Listed by name only. Maybe I will browse through a page before I lose interest.

That's what it's all about finding that little golden nugget, feels even better when you come across it unexpectedly.

Well done Crazyjay
