Mark or someone help me. I had a few hundred LPs and dozens of old classical 
78s. Then my immdeiate past wife and I inherited from a very dear friend and 
client of mine much of the contents of her home, including probably 
1500-2000 LP and 78 records. Former wife wanted to give them to the junk 
dealer who offered to cart them away at no cost. I said no. Former wife 
said, ok you pay to have them packed and shipped upt to Saratoga Springs. Ok 
says I and did.

Now, how do I find a serious buyer for anything other than peanuts, except 
by indexing and selling one-by-one on eBay?

Seth

I held onto my collection of LPs when everyone assured me that they had gone
the way of the dodo.  Now there is all sorts of equipment made for "vinyl",
vinyl snobs abound, and there are even manufacturers of high end components
for LPs, some using tube amps based on 1950s technology.  My view is that we
are headed that way with film.  Analog is king!
