Digging Trip...Mad Records Mad Cheap

yo so the other day me and a couple of my boys went digging at the local farmers market. There was this old dude out there who had a lot of records and we were digging through his collection. He says to us 'Hey you can have the whole lot for 400 dollars.' and we like nah we dont have that much. Then he says 'well how much you got?' my boy says '50 dollars' and he says 'You can have the whole collection for 50.' I was like WHAAAAT??? are you playin?? So we drive the uhaul type van up there to pack it all up...took about an hour to move it all in. Around 3,500 records, filled up the intire back of the uhaul truck. That was the craziest digging experience Ive had lol just thought id share it with yall

enjoy going throw all that. I'm not sure if you are digging just for sounds or your an collector, but that sounds like a good haul you and your peoples gots there.


..1wn..

wow u lucky bastard

lol i didnt get them my boy did but he gave me a stack for helpin him move them. In my stack was a Dilla record cover but the record inside was different...that had me sad lol but there was some other stuff i found in there. And I collect and sample.

was it all like 50's music with some horrible 80's lp's thrown in?? I seem to come across those types of records alot when they are mad cheap. Were there actually some worthy pieces in the collection?

I'm pretty sure that even the 500 out of 3000 records,got some descent samples,who gives a sh!t if the others are cheesy Pops and 60s sentimental ish haha! Oh my, it was a bargain for real.

hahah. every time i hit up an ad on craigslist for records this is usually what the case is, ive gotten lucky a few times tho.

it was a djs collection theres some good soul/funk/jazz and a lot is techno

Was that the Rt 40 Farmer's Market? I used to hit up that spot all the time. Got so much classic stuff out there.

Did you get the records from this older guy that drives the white van and has all of those crates on the table?

yea it was the rt 40 join...and it was an old dude with a van parked by him but the crates were all on the ground. When were you out DE?
