| Comment | Selling some vinyl.
Guy posted on a local area Facebook group saying he was looking so messaged him.
Told him I'd send what I had and get a price for him.
'ok'
Said he wasn't looking to pay 'top dollar' for anything: 🚩. Asked me what a certain, sought after vinyl was worth. Had a look online, average price was £30, so offered that.
'ok'
Unable to to clarify whether he meant he was happy to buy at that price or if he was just acknowledging it, I asked him if he was wanting to look at anything else.
'ok'
Then clarified that he was looking to pay £5 - £10 per batch. When I asked him what he meant by batch, he said a joblot of 50 records.
Felt like telling him that if you're getting into vinyl collection, you're never going to get decent stuff for prices like that and that he had an unrealistic expectation of how the record market worked but didn't bother, just saying I couldn't help him.
'ok'
Turns out the original price I quoted was for the reissue, not the original, which was going for an average of £125. Missed out on a bargain, I guess. 🤷 |
