CRAZY VINYL FINDS WERE HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT

[@johnleyva8661]

I’m disappointed you don’t know Stevie Ray Vaughan . My favorite blues guitarist of all time. Just busting your chops man. Nice haul !!!

[@MountainManTreasure]

I do actually, just didn’t connect the brothers portion of it! :)

[@YTSkeptic]

@@MountainManTreasure Jimmy is a founding member of The Fabulous Thunderbirds.

[@gsmurph08]

Family Style is the only studio album featuring guitarists and vocalists Jimmie and Stevie Ray Vaughan. Released on September 25, 1990, it is their only studio collaboration. In his early years, Stevie often remarked that he would like to do an album with his elder brother. That wish turned out to be his last studio performance, released nearly a month after his death. The liner notes end with "Thanks Mama V. for letting us play."

[@ResellChamp]

Omg, can’t believe you found all that vinyl! What a dream

[@courtneylalonde5713]

I went to an estate sale this morning out of the blue and I was really overwhelmed, in a good way lol. I collect and resell a lot of uranium glass, and the estate sale was loaded with it. I was sort of losing my mind 😂 It was truly AMAZING. The prices were up there but still worth it for reselling. She’s still having more sales as she has more to go through this summer. Can’t wait! I want to try to get into selling vinyls. My mom has a bunch of 45s she wants me to help her get rid of so I will probably start with those.

[@Fillerspace]

If you go to Estate sales on Sunday it’s even more amazing I think 45s carry a better value than LP so that’s fun, look up Discogs, and Popsike and I’d love to hear how you make out

[@lmc3307]

Don’t bother with records it’s very difficult to know what’s valuable and what’s not. Also grading condition is important and it’s hard to do. Most guys who buy and sell vinyl effectively have been doing it for years and know far more than you.

Troy! My man. That’s every pickers dream to come across some amazing tracks like that new too!! I almost wish that SRV wasn’t sealed because I would’ve snagged it up. I just checked all your listings and I’m happy to see you priced these like you did bc in this video you def undercut yourself a bit. Make that money buddy!!! Great great scores!!!!!!

well, they'll hit my sale and come down a bit ... but I did price a few of them a bit higher!

[@thenerdypicker]

@@MountainManTreasure My problem is I would want to open to listen to it. Big big fan, but the value is keeping it sealed. I’m more of a listener. Im such a vinyl junky, but I want to spin them.

[@SONIC-BOOM-TV]

You're already late on that game.

[@kevinwysk7757]

Sealed vintage records tend to be warped upon opening. Almost every single album I have purchased that is older than five years old, has had pretty significant warping due to the pressure placed upon them from the shrink wrap. Need a Vinyl Flat treatment for them all.

[@MountainManTreasure]

I would expect most that buy new sealed are often displaying rather than playing

[@SONIC-BOOM-TV]

@@kevinwysk7757 that's not true, only if they have been stored in extreme heat. I have bought quite a few sealed recirds that are from 30 to 40 years old and they were perfectly flat. The shrink wrap is not tight enough to bend a record.

[@anthonyashley26]

I love finding records to flip, look for old jazz records also.. take a little time and look at completed sales in different genres of music Awesome find !!! Good luck

[@thriftedflip]

I never find good vinyl's... Congrats! It's amazing how much some Bibles can get. Some hate to sell them, but I love it! Good Video!

[@maggiewhite0607]

Also, every single estate sale I have ever been to, and nearly every yard sale that has vinyl has Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass Band records. He must have sold billions of albums in his day. Every. Single. Estate. Sale!

[@MSGsTreasures]

I can confirm this statement 😂😂

[@rummage4riches685]

lol every storage unit or estate buyout I have done that had vinyl records has had the Alpert and the Tijuana Brass Band vinyl with the lady covered in whip cream. I think it was the cover that sold the record.

[@peterbetts858]

yup if u vinyl sellers were into music instead of burning people on prices you might discover some of the great music that you come across ,Herb Albert and the Tijuana Brass did make some Terrific music back when ,excellent stuff .and sold Very well .

[@MountainManTreasure]

In the right mood, I love me some Herb. But when buying to sell, you have to buy what, you know, sells.

[@SONIC-BOOM-TV]

Well you didn't show the vinyl on any of the cheaper ones so price could be higher or lower on those but I've gotten most of them out of dollar bins. The ones that were unopened are great finds but from the video they looked warped (the Rolling Stones and Slaughter especially). Sealed does not equal mint condition hope you don't get them returned if they are warped.

[@JK-bf9qg]

His prices are way too optimistic even if the titles were clean. Judging by the covers, I d guess most of the vinyl is g+ at best.

[@briangattis2025]

Awesome video, Amazing finds, I never find the cool stuff like that in my area. Hopefully you make some big $$$$$

[@donwarnick1089]

Exactly how I started selling on eBay 6 months ago. My second yard sale I ran into a woman getting rid of all her albums for about 1 to 2 dollars a piece which were basically opened and never played. I ended up buying about 75 albums all 60’s,70’s and 80’s rock for about $90. I have about 50 left and I’m up to a sold comps of $300 so far. First one I sold was London Calling by the Clash for $60 and I was hooked.

[@peterbetts858]

thieves ,thieves your all just thieves ,your like all these people selling their properties for 4 n 5 times what there worth .y0ur just driving the price of vinyl up by your inflated prices . just a money grab .i am not a troll .

[@MountainManTreasure]

Thieves typically don’t pay for the items they bring home, do they? Nor do they research to figure out what the market it for those items, clean them, save them from the landfill and get them to someone who will appreciate them. At least, not that I’m aware. Something is only worth what someone will pay and what the market will support.

[@donwarnick1089]

@@peterbetts858 so let me get this straight Petey you buy a house decide to sell it 10 years later meanwhile the houses in the neighborhood have risen 50% your making the foolish statement that your not going to take advantage of that yea ok buddy maybe I should do all the work of finding these items clean them take pictures and list them then sit on them for sometimes months at a time then package and ship them when they sell for little or no profit because people like you are too lazy to go out and do the same thing So one more question do you stand outside Walmart and complain about the prices they charge on products that are made for pennies on the dollar overseas see it’s easy for people like you to make statements like you did when they either don’t have the wits to think their statement through or don’t have the mental capacity to even know what your talking about
