Funny cuz I saw the sign but it mentioned nothing of records. thought it was simply a book sale.

S.O.U.L. for peanuts at a thrift shop is the very definition of coming up, congrats. that bishop norman lp you got is pretty cool also.
 
Highlights from Mexico City's first record convention. While people was paying 60 bucks for Beatles stuff I managed to pick up these (and some other minor stuff) for the same amount. No raers or anything, but worth the visit:

update from an ongoing excavation, jam packed home/basement of a apparently deceased 70s dj/activist/promoter type person. Its all second hand info and ive no direct access to the site, but the guys shoveling the stuff out are letting me snoop through it first so whatever the story is, its working for me so far. plus a few other things mixed in.

Unfortunatly

yes, unfortunatly. After buying this collection I'm completly broke. I have no other chance than to sell a big part of it.


I don't have a clue how to price them, though... Popsike, collectorsfrenzy & discogs can't help here, because lot of obscure brazilian stuff isn't listed. In the collection are a lot of brazilian pressings of classics and lots of psych/kraut rock raer.


I have no clue if these brazilain pressing are worth more or are more sought after than the regular pressings.


Can anyone school me on this topic?

Make high-quality WAVs of everything you have to sell!

Dude, this is a 1500 piece collection. I wish I could. And this won't help me to prize the records either....

If there's anything stupidly raer, would you consider approaching a re-issue label? May be the best way to recoup your expenses, and spread the music/money around too.





I'm no expert in this field either. I assume somebody here will be able to help - maybe you should start a separate thread: "Brasilian records HELP needed" to direct knowledgable heads.

I guess I'll post some pictures here.
 
Sorry i got no pictures but i found a minty fresh copy of Mike Sammes Singers - Hymns a Swinging at a local charity shop for 50p! Its a decent record but theres only 2 real stand out tracks on it for me.





I also finally managed to get a copy of Zappa's Hot Rats for a good price when i visited a new spot with time off work.
 
If you're not sure just trust your ears. The more "juice" you feel off a record the higher you price it. Just make sure to note that you'll take offers in case you price too high, sort of a like a reverse auction.

I don't believe my ears anymore. I sold good awful records for big money in the past. But thanks anyway.


At the moment I try to upload about 100 pictures but imageshack.us stops the uploading constantly.


Is there an easy way to upload a bulk of pictures? It would be best if the hosting service let me copy all picture urls


at once, so that I don't have to copy & caste each picture individualy. Does something like this exist?

^^^^^^^^


This.





A list of your brazilian records would help very much to tell if they are raers or commons.


If they aren't in popsike, CF and discogs probably it's because they're stupidly rare or too common.
