I was in today to sell a box of old records that was sitting in my garage. I had low expectations, but Andy gave me a very fair offer. Thank you so much!!!

I inherited a fairly large jazz LP collection from a relative. Wanted to sell it to get it back into the hands collectors, etc. Called Brian who came out to review the collection, then he made me a great offer. They paid well for my collection. Wasn’t sure what to expect when I started the process, but I’m very satisfied with my dealings with Brian. He’s a fair, straight up guy!
