The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Time has come to unload a bunch of my stuff. Collecting machines since 80, not as an investment, just enjoyed the hunt and working on them. Going to unload about 15 Victrolas, shipping crate, etc. I haven't sensed any excitement from the several auction houses I contacted over the past few months. Figure I'll call one of the more popular places and tell them to come get'em. No doubt I shall take a drubbing but it is what it is. If these initial 15 go then the rest will follow. Wish me luck

Why not list em here first and see what comes of it? Too much work?

You possibly could list them in the Yankee Trader section.

Thats a thought. I'm going to list what is going, so might as well put them on YT prior to calling the Auction folks. Thanks

I am sure that listing here on the forum would create real interest. Creates some additional work for you with the S&H issue, but expenses could be taken into account with your pricing. New members are always looking to expand their collection.

Old members are always looking to expand as well

In either case, they'd be going into the right hands!

Ok I'll get cracking on this - thanks for the responses.....cheers

What do you have to unload??
