Selling records, like any other product, requires a serious attitude. It is necessary to carry out pre-sale preparation, draw up a competent ad and choose the right places for its placement.
Instructions
Step 1
Carry out pre-sale preparation of the records. Such preparation implies bringing the sold product into proper form. Firstly, respect for the buyer is expressed in this way, and secondly, it will help to sell the product more profitably. Check that you have the appropriate envelopes for all records. Glue those that are torn. Wipe off dust. It is not recommended to wipe the plates themselves - they can easily be scratched. It is best to clean them if you have experience in this matter.
Step 2
Place your ad in local newspapers for free classified ads. Try to describe the product being sold as accurately and in detail as possible. Indicate the number of records, the main musical directions presented on them, their condition, whether you are ready to sell them separately or just all together. Correctly enter the contact information by which you can be contacted. A well-written ad is the key to a successful sale. It will provide all the most necessary information that will attract only potential buyers.
Step 3
Use internet services. Existing message boards and forums can be a good way to find buyers. Select a few of the city's most popular forums (or specialized forums, if any) and place an advertisement for the sale in the appropriate section. Complete it with more details. You can provide a detailed list of musical directions or authors available on your records. Supplement your ad with photos - this is a bonus to your ad. Do not forget to provide contact information for communication.
Step 4
You can also place an advertisement for the sale on one of the all-Russian (or even worldwide) auction sites. Each section is viewed by a large number of people interested in this particular topic, so the probability of finding a buyer is quite high. However, be prepared for the fact that you will most likely have to send records to another city.
