Selling my Father's vinyl record collection

[groberts99]

 I am selling my Father's record collection.  He bought most of his classical records new and the ones used are in great shape too.  I am not a record expert but every record he kept was in playable condition with no scratches heard. Most of the cheapest records have sold already and I am left with the more rarer expensive ones. I still have about 100 classical records for sale still on Amazon. There are blues, rock and folk for sale too.  On Amazon I am usually the guy who has the lowest price for the record.

My storefront has a search bar to look for a certain record and just click next in the bottom right corner to see more.

Your overall feedback rating isn't that great. Your lifetime rating shows a -5%, which isn't good considering you only have a total of 38 feedbacks so far. Truth be told, and with keeping your current rating in the back of my mind, I wouldn't buy a pack of bubble gum from you.

You certainly don't pretend the danger's not real.

That's not true. Almost every rating this guy has received is 5/5. The few that aren't are explained to my satisfaction. The one really low rating happened eight years ago! You are being needlessly harsh, MI.

I look at the "Lifetime" rating and that's all that matters to me when I'm buying from a seller. But I'm extremely picky when it comes to Amazon MP sellers anyway.

Well, it's not like John is picking composers...

Over 8 years ago I had some issues removing a product that was no longer for sale.  When you don't sell that much it only takes 1 or 2 negative reviews to drop you down a lot.  I was not a business, just a gun trying to get rid of stuff I no longer needed.  Also had a issue with people saying they never received their item when I did send it. Gave up on Amazon for awhile until I had to deal with my Dad's record collection. Amazon is so much better to work with now. Customers are great to deal with. It also helps that I put a tracking # on all my shipments and Amazon makes it easy for me. Not one person asking how much longer they have to wait or saying they did not get it. The ability to add photos is awesome for me. Now the customer knows exactly what they are ordering. No complaints about saying product did not match description. Great for a person like me who is not a record expert. Only issue people rarely give positive feedback. They feel if they got what they expected their is no reason to post feedback unless they have a complaint. I have sold over 100 records so far and only received 8 feedback, all positive.

Ha! I just looked at the prices. I can get most of those for 2 bucks a pop at the swap meet. Fifteen bucks tops for a MFSL Aqualung. (As if I'd even want it!)

I didn't know you bought records, John. I thought you were just a CD man...

Thanks for the taking the time to explain the reasons for the negative feedback. I only wished more Amazon MP sellers were as honest as you.

I'm a CD man for sure, but I just had to make a comment here, but it's good to hear the seller is being honest, which more than I can say for most of them.
