Thanks everyone. A good buddy of a good buddy picked up enough of the collection to "set me straight" for the while. All records sold at the same price as HAZE XXL sold them. No flipping BS allowed!

All records sold at the same price as HAZE XXL sold them. No flipping BS allowed! Wow that was really cool of you. I sold all my extra 1983 10"s a year ago (only kept the one I really liked) ....and sold em for my cost and it felt good to help some folks out. That being said, I do somewhat disagree with your statement. I think a true Melvins fan that bought the records with the intent of keeping them who falls on some tough times, needs to sell them and happens to make a profit is not a flipper. I would consider it musical karma coming back to you. You chose awesome records so ya, the value increased. Either way I am happy for you and I'm sure your friend is happy too.
Agreed. The going rate for a record should not be overlooked just because someone did not have the foresight to pick it up when released. Come on!! Should I be obligated to sell some of my old Velvet Underground records for what I payed for them back in the early 70s? I think not!!
