Make me an offer

[connoisseur series500]

I don't have the time to price these cds. All are in excellent condition unless otherwise noted. They are all for sale. Please look them up on Amazon and make me an offer on any of them that you want. I'll take less than Amazon, but I won't dump them for peanuts either. If your offer is reasonable, we can make a deal. Ebay is the eventual destination, but I just wanted to offer them here first. I've decided to chop my collection in half. There will be more in the weeks to come. All my RVGs and stuff are being sold to a local store. It's not worth selling off $4-5 cds piecemeal.

Make you offer inclusive of shipping please. International buyers are welcome, but please include a shipping estimate to your country. Thanks.

Have you gone into a store recently and tried to sell regular US Blue Note CDs? I think you'll be lucky if they offer 50 cents to a dollar each. If you wanted store credit, you might get them up to $2, but even that might be lucky. Remember, many stores are selling sealed/new current Blue Note CDs for around $6-8. Used, they have to sell less than that which means they have to buy them for even less than that to make any money.

I'm asking for $3/piece, and a store said they might be able to do that on the phone. We'll see. I don't want to ebay all that stuff.

I'm not talking about the stuff he has for sale here! My comment was directed to his statement that he's going to sell his "regular" stuff to a local store. In my recent experience, stores are just not interested in used Jazz CDs. I've been told, "We don't want that" more than once in my day. When they do buy them, they offer very short money. If he has a store willing to give him $3 in cash for used current Blue Note CDs, I think he's doing pretty good.

Not at all. I appreciate your input, Kevin. I'll let you know how it goes for the hundreds of RVGs I'll be offering to a store. They go for about $4-6 on Amazon. I'm hoping to get $3 apiece and was told it might be possible by phone. Amazon also charges another $2 for shipping so if the store offers them for $4-6 then it's still a deal for the customer. Perhaps they can pay me half. I'm driving 45 minutes away to a major college town where jazz is still popular with the kids.

Hey Kevin,

I sold 100 cds for $3/each. The store wants more. If I had auctioned these on ebay, I would have gotten perhaps $5 on half of them, and the other half wouldn't sell at all. I'm happy with the deal. I'm going to sell more of them over there. Maybe there aren't many jazz lovers in your part of the country?

$3 per disc is about the average going rate here in Texas as well.

[connoisseur series500]

CDS are being mailed in the morning for all those who have paid. Everything has been packaged up.

[Chuck Nessa]

Received mine today. Thanks Paul.
