You can get paid for certain disco 12s in Chicago. You might consider selling some of those after you sample if you're not a DJ/collector. These guys are the disco pimps in Chi http://www.mrpeabodyrecords.com/ Look at how much they're getting for some of the ones you picked up. Could pay for a lot of textbooks....

i already bought the windex, need more tissue, tho...or lint free wipes...
and i need to get the materials listed in the warped records thread...a few gems could be just a bit straighter

i need the bookcases, tho...to hold this massive vinyl

my measly 5ft bookcase aint gonna hole 1400 record (1091 added to my previous collection)
i need to find something inexpensive, yet reliable. I read the record storage thread already...i just gotta go out to wal mart, a thrift store or wherever and buy a strong bookcase
cant use shelves, as i will be moving within the next 6 months...and i'll be going off to college in a year or so



ISSUES DON'T USE TISSUE except on the Outer Sleeve.............

And Check out Office Depot/Max or Staples......................
If NOT TRY Guess Where the SALVATION ARMY................
This IS A Good Look Since ITS Cheap And They Usually Have OLD Style REAL WOOD Cabinets etc.........


Jus Use Alcohol or Bleach to Wipe The Shelves Down First.....

Usin' Tissue On Vinyl Leaves Behind Small Paper that might even be microscopic if not Small ........But U Don't Want That........................


Go TO Ur Nearest Radio Shack and Get A Brush............If U Have A Decent Vinyl Spot Near BY Get The Yellow or Red Vinyl Cloth .............
In MY Thread I Left Various Locations For This Type Of Material...........

Tissue is OK But U Are Past That Point Brother......................
