PRIVATE APPOINTMENTS

If you are interested in a private appointment to browse the inventory, please email me. You will have access to everything available in the shop, Discogs and many $1 records. Yes, there is a listening station. I am based in the Southeast part of San Francisco.

 

SELL YOUR RECORDS

Interested in selling your record collection or just a few records? I'm always on the lookout and can travel all over Northern California. Get in touch.

 

GRADING

Please keep in mind that the majority of records for sale are used. I do my best to grade them conservatively using the Goldmine Grading Guide (Mint, Near Mint, Very Good Plus/VG+, VG, VG-, etc). You can see reviews of previous sales on my Discogs page. All records are ultrasonic cleaned and placed in new archival quality inner sleeves.
