Pretty insane Elvis Presley collection $300 includes $100 donation to this site

[Northwinds]

Time to pass this on to someone else, I have collected Elvis stuff for many years and sold off all the most common stuff. This is what I have left. Everything is in VG+ beautiful condition to -NM except the Spinout lp which is in good condition and the Ral Donner 7", I only wanted the cover for the Cobra on the back cover. Both the GI Blues lps are in shrink. The 2 7" original EP's are in stunning condition, in fact all the 45s are in -NM visual condition with nice sleeve. The Elvis cassettes appear to be bootlegs of some sort as they are recorded on Maxell UD I tapes. The Lost Album is a RCA release

I am also including a few other original 7" that are in beautiful condition. The Ral Donner white label promo is a rare rockabilly one but the disc is VG, nice sleeve that is usually missing. The My Way 7" is still sealed. Some of the Elvis is colored vinyl also. There is one empty Elvis 7" picture sleeve "Ask Me"

Both Beach Boys 7" discs are sweet, picture sleeves very nice but not perfect

The Harum Scarum is I beautiful shape and comes with the original very collectible photo insert

Golden Records is the original 1st press in shrink in stunning condition

I also want to include several very nice Elvis 8 track tapes but I need to locate them. If I come across them, they will be in the box

EDIT: All the records should be cleaned prior to play regardless how nice they look. I have just archived these, rarely if ever played any of them

Go ahead, start looking at completed listings and see if $300 for this entire lot is a deal and remember, $100 is being donated to this site to be used however the owners deem in the best interests of the community. This is my way of saying thank you to Larry (RIP), Jer, Lee, Joe, Webby, Navo and everyone who makes this the coolest Audio site on the internet

I am asking $300 OBO shipped for everything

PayPal F/F please to: topeliminator@earthlink.net

As soon as payment is made, I will contact Jer or Lee (whoever is on on how to send the $100 for the site) and they will confirm receipt of payment via PayPal for the site donation

Shoot me your shipping info, Canadian and other worldwide member locations will probably cost a lot so unless you are willing to pay the shipping (probably at least $50), this is open to US members only of which I will pickup

Thanks!

Great deal, great gesture.

Not an Elvis fan though Ron. Someone is, don't pass it up!

Yes, the UD I tapes are the well-documented pirated/Counterfeit tapes from place like Indonesia? in the 80s and maybe into the 90s. Some of those producers were so bold as to call themselves the top company for all your recording needs or something.

I have a couple I got at a secondhand store, and one sounds like it was recorded straight from a new LP...oddly enough the sound quality was really good, maybe better than the actual cassette would have been.

Since the tape was very good and it would seem that home taping would be common anyway, they seem to have been accepted that way and maybe they never knew what the actual product wsa supposed to look like. You can tell the labels aren't up to snuff if you look hard enough and many seem to have come in a snap case like for videotapes instead of the 'Norelco' hinged cassette cases.

I don't know what you could get for the records on eBay, but I am not sure you could sell the cassettes there.

However, the Elvis Fan Attic around here would probably love to have them for that price. And Lee and Jer will love it too. Thanks Ron!

I will drop these to $250, same deal, $100 of that amount to the board

The Sinatra LP is from 1957 with Nelson Riddle conducting and recorded at Capitol.

The Doris Day records are also good stuff (Whatever Will Be Will Be is better know as Que Sera, Sera perhaps)? The Philips 45 rpm EP is from a 1955 film which was in stereophonic sound but I'm not sure if the original stereophonic 7" records or even the 33 1/3 jukebox title had come out by then, and 7" stereo 45s pretty much left the scene for a few years until the late sixties/early 70s when stereo carts and phonographs were dominant and the separate mono and stereo issues ceased. I assume it's mono with the blurb being a promo for the film.

I could be easily persuaded to take those off your hands under the same arrangement...would probably be August tho. I'd offer the other $50.

I still think All That Elvis is worth the full admission price.

I saw no Beach Boys in those pictures.

Here's that Ral Donner song, it's a cover of Elvis, and the video someone made has a lot of fine bikes, bikers and some Phoenix-class women

Offer given for the non-Elvis stuff and I want to preserve the $300 thing, even if it's broken into a couple sections, as it's important for us.

There must be a couple thousand of those 40 million Elvis fans who weren't wrong left after 60 years

Oops, missed the Beach Boys in all that Elvis, top row, first picture 2 and 3.

Understand you want to sell the lot as one if you can first, thanks for the return PM.

Still worth $300 total or in parts as first asked in my opinion.

 

[Northwinds]

This offer is over, I will think of something else

I will give you 33 1/3 percent over what you ask for the Beach Boys, Sinatra and Doris Day records, Ral Donner as well if you wish. Same arrangement you first asked for, so that Lee and Jer get the site support funds.

I would be interested in this lot. I didn't see this post till now. Only thing is funds would have to wait till months end for this.

OK, these are yours then. LMK where you want them shipped when they are paid for. I can find a box and weigh it to give you a shipping quote unless you have someone on this side that they can be delivered to and you meet them at the border. Maybe Nick Danger??

I will consider this lot as sold

Nick lives in Colorado...

Done. PM was sent and you replied. Only thing I didn't ask is what price we were going with- $250 or $300? Let me know on that.

Fitz43/Doug in BC is a lot closer to Scott than Nick/Doug in Colorado (he's next to WYOMING or over by Manitoba or so)? Sending a US fixed rate/Priority Mail to his Washington State address is much cheaper.

It's Sunday and I just woke up, please don't ask me to do a geography quiz?

(When I was young I majored in watching the cheerleaders carhop at A&W and algebra has been in a pond a while).

No need to have to send this to someone, as I can send it to a receiver just at the Sumas border. Its not far from Chilliwack. That said I still might get this sent to Canada, after the postal strike is over.

I lowered it to $250 so that is the price + shipping. When your ready to pay, contact Lee or Jer for their part and contact me for my part

Thanks for doing this Brother, hopefully we can get a few other people to do this so we can help with site expenses or whatever

I will discuss this with Jer, but I had planned on opening a separate bank account with all Admin and mods having access to handle things with whomever is available...

In good hands then, you guys will do what's best. Just thank you for giving us all a place to call home

Wouldn't have it any other way Ron....
