Personally I don’t see why all the negativity, the man bought a huge record collection, great. I been collecting for 25 years and have thousands cataloged. It’s what you enjoy and like. He obviously has the room. Not everyone collects for value. I have albums that are worth hundreds each and some I bought for a dollar. It’s all what you like.
I...believe I "got" your humour; Pawn Stars was a phoney, shit-show that likely got a lot of people into the shady business of pawn; Sellers AND Buyers.
I live an hour from Acoustic Sounds and I am really looking forward to touring and shopping their warehouse. Thank you for sharing this and for all of your great videos and advice, Mr. Fremer - I've been learning so much and taking your advice on many things to deepen my passion for vinyl - it's all about the music and the people...so much joy!
I just watched a video on Zero Freitas' record collection, apparently the largest personal collection in the world. I would trade 10 of his warehouses for this pristine collection. This one is absolutely amazing!
Did you purchase this collection outright or did you acquire on a consignment agreement.I ask as I am curious as to the value of a magnificent Collection.
That's a fantastic treasure find! Just to pull out some of those original pressings & jackets and look at 'em would be a pleasure! @ 1:10 Chad says, " The second truck got confiscated ". My god! Does that mean they took away all the records in that truck??? I hope not! Thank you for yet another interesting video.
I can't imagine how it would feel to let a collection like this go if you were the owner. Sure, material things are always just material things (you can't take it with you and all that), but something like this takes a lifetime to accumulate.
I have one problem ...the new records you have pressed waiting for an owner are grossly leaning and warping on shelves behind you. And you are supposed to be the Guardians of the grail....I think not!
Absolutely looked at their site and agree with a few of the comments. 25$ for a sealed run of the mill lionel ritchey s/t is laughable considering the sales of that lp and relative ease of availability in nm to mint shape. The old addage goes you can ask any price you want. Doesn't mean your going to get it.
It doesn't mean Michael Fremer got taste! does it Michael!! Just wondered what would be the top 3 albums I should look out for. I've got a shop near me that doesn't sell on the internet and he's been going for 40 years
This guy was a completest, he found a target a list of records completed found another. It's rewarding to complete a list, esp when it takes time to do, but that endorphin hit you get, it's slightly less each time. This isn't a hoarder which some people imply in the comments, I've been to many collections hoarders have records everywhere and without any order, just piles of stuff, no real concern for quality or condition, what drives them is a compulsion to not miss out by throwing things out. One hoarders house I went to had the records in tied up plastic bags (each bag had maybe 10-20 records). One bag would be metal, one would be classical and so on. No thought about condition. The reason the records were in plastic bags, the brought them at goodwill (probably 90s) say it was 10 for 1dollar, the shop tied the top of the bag. He just took them home and never opened the bags. I can see why this guy decided to sell, he probably reached the point where there is nowhere to go, you either keep buying each new re-issue of the same stuff, or you explore new music but when your collection is so large how do you get the time to even start with new artists.
I heard that he had an argument with his wife and out of spite she scratched every record. Seriously imagine finding a collection like that then discovering every single side has been scratched to the point of unplayable. Yes I'm a sadist :)
I honestly don't understand the point of collectors who care about "rare editions" of super-popular, widely available recordings. The only value of a collection, to me, is the stuff you otherwise would never hear. Not the "oooh, this release has a different flap on its sleeve" or a different colored label. It seems to be almost uninterested in what's actually been recorded, and more interested in irrelevant, trainspotting-details
"i collect krautrock" i collect soul and funk music. I went to the "vinyl vault" website, and do you know what they had? 7 records called "funk". 2 of which were novelty soul records. And they didn't have even a single "Black Jazz" label record. And almost nothing from Prestige in the Jazz section. I applaud these guys for being in business at all. I love anybody who helps keep vinyl markets alive. But ffs, i can't understand wtf they care about "rare" versions of 'dark side of the moon' for. Who the hell cares about the best selling recording of all time? record collecting is about "rare records" : stuff no one otherwise would hear. at least that's how i see it.
ceounicom it’s an OCD thing to hear minutiae in differnces in mastering and pressing quality when it comes to these different editions/releases of the same album. But sometimes it is a dramatic difference in sound (mastering mostly.) An ‘audiophile thing’.. But I agree, it’s more about the music and quality of the pressings. So for 60’s-70’s krautrock for instance I usually look for early German or Dutch pressings..
"minutiae in differnces in mastering and pressing quality " yeah, as suggested above: absolutely uninteresting and unbelievably unimportant, imo. (and it is just my opinion) No EQ-tweak merits absurd-valuations and/or archival-value, imo. What is interesting to me as a record collector are recordings which are simply no longer available in any other format at all. I would argue that your average DJ/Sample-digger has better appreciation of the significance of rare-recordings than these people who fetishize slight variations in album-cover or label printings. e.g. in the last 20-30 years there's been a boom in the interest in "Library music" of the 1970s - KPM, Warner/Chappell, Music De Wolfe, Bruton, etc. This stuff is genuinely "rare" but it is interesting because of the unique quality of the music-itself - just simply *because its rare*. There's lots of rare garbage. Rare 'good music' is the point. Anyone who spends time/energy collecting 'hard to find' versions of bloody *Eagles* records is, in my opinion, in dire need of a swift kick in the groin.
Some people collect variants. There are people out there that want EVERY single variation of every album Pink Floyd (or any other band for that matter) put out. They care about the intricacies like that. Not to necessarily listen to, but to just have in their collections. I don't do this, but I know plenty of people that do this.
The poor guy collected these all over his lifetime and couldn't even enjoy them (as you hear most of them were sealed) and now he sold them all coz there's no much time to live. It's life.
enjoy what you got - once you're over 5000 records you won't have time to play them anyway. it's quality over quantity. everything else is just hoarding...
I wonder why this collector decided to get rid of his entire collection if that is in fact all of his or her record collection sold to Acoustic Sounds. Wow that is one hell of a collection. My father and I combined have about 400 records. He has the most since has been collecting for the past 35 years. I been collecting music for the past 20 years and only been collecting records for about 12 years. I have everything from jazz,bop,hard bop, classical,pop,metal,thrash,ambient and country on vinyl record. I take collecting music very seriously i like my CD's, vinyl and the packaging to be in very good to mint condition. I was wondering if Chad would buy up a big collection like this again. I know some years back he got the remaining stock of vinyl records Classical Records had before they closed their doors. Ive collected Analogue Productions,MFSL, and Classical Records pressings and those three are the top audiophile labels to buy if you care about sound or want high quality packaging when it comes to records. AP's and MFSL SACD's are great too.
People eventually get hard of hearing and even (gasp) _die._ Their loved ones generally do not hold nearly as much of an interest in the hobby. The rest is not overly hard to imagine.
I wasn't bragging that this many records are in my household. I own about 120 records. The collection i have doesn't compare to others here in the vinyl community here or on Steve Hoffman Forum. I love music too and thats why i listen to every genre of music.
Hi Michael. Do you have any idea how much this collection got sold for? Street price is around 1 million $ or more but i'm guessing Acoustic Sounds paid way less since they bought in bulk and also now they have to clean, stock, photograph and sell them again. My estimate is they paid around $10 per record or less...so tops 500k...min i'd say 250k $
SpaghettiKillah Chad is very open with me but he did not divulge the terms of the purchase. You can be sure packing took days and manpower and trucks and truck weight hassles and once the collection reached Salina as you write cleaning and grading will take time. A lot of it!
I would imagine they paid much under $250,000 for it. It's not easy to find a buyer for such huge collection simply because it's huge, heavy and will take years to get rid of. That being said, I might be totally off ;)
I can't imagine they paid more than a dollar a record. Although if the quality was there they might pay a bit more. $100k would be a reasonable guess. It would definitely be much less than the owner paid, which could be around a million. The problem is that large collections can loose value because they're harder to sell.
What an awesome collection! However, let's not forget that records were/are a mass produced medium meant to enjoy by listening, not an object to fawn over. The "rare" factor or the fact that it's sealed or the graphics/inner sleeve is a slight different color, just gives vinyl freaks the excuse to charge WAY TOO MUCH money for records. More people would get into vinyl if the prices were reasonable. Instead, you have middle age men obsessing over the details of which pressing it is instead of just enjoying the music.
What the hell? sickness beyond sickness!! Sure you paid him top top dollar for that collection! NOT!! Sure he got an ass screwing compared to what he originally paid!
Thelma Houston & Pressure Cooker - I've Got The Music In Me direct to disc pressing, sealed for $130 is not a bad deal considering there are barely any left and they are selling for twice that. . Hell Freezes over now listed for $600 and I'll pay that when...well you can probably guess.
Appreciated the quick reply, but Uline does not offer such a box. Never saw these kind of boxes, specifically pre-printed for records. Hope other viewers of the video have a clue.
That brings up the question of how many of those records did he listen to over the years? I'm a record collector with a couple thousand albums, and I'm well aware of the kind of prices most dealers give when you try to sell them albums. I've also dealt in antiques for many years, and I know all the arguments about the dealer needing to double his investment, but a lot of people probably think the seller made a rolling mint on these, and he most likely didn't.
From 'trane to Cannibal Corpse ? That would be my definition of *eclectic*, but sadly my last skim through a used record barn left me unimpressed : Nana Mouskouri, Whitney Houston and pretty much every one-hit wonder pop wannabe you can name (Aqua would be considered royalty amongst this lot). Thanks for the vid.
Thats not a second press Dark Side, it doesnt even have Made in GT Britain on the label. I have the second generation release myself and honestly the full blue prism isnt even that rare. Does the guy really know what hes talking about...
Leon thepro I’m impressed that you can see what’s not visible on the label in that video. The full blue prism label is that rare relative to the number of copies pressed of DSOTM.
Analog Planet Im sure you found some other great stuff in those days. Records like the now expensive UK Swirl Black Sabbath Paranoids would be found in the dollar bins. Although not just 2 years ago.
What are you going to do with all of it? It'd be nice if you digitize it or otherwise make it available to the public. I hate to see it just remain a hoard.
Personally I don’t see why all the negativity, the man bought a huge record collection, great. I been collecting for 25 years and have thousands cataloged. It’s what you enjoy and like. He obviously has the room. Not everyone collects for value. I have albums that are worth hundreds each and some I bought for a dollar.
It’s all what you like.

Bring money - lots of it.
The edge warp happening behind you is terrifying.
I noticed that too, I just don't why so many people do that with their records.
Glad I'm not the only one seeing that...
never seen a guy so excited a record lover died (us in the future) so he make a profit of it! Thanks for a peek into our after life!
The collection is impressive and the fact it wasn't pieced out sold as one lot means a lot
wow! I have to come to the US. Tears in my eyes. Hello from Germany
I just watched a video on Zero Freitas' record collection, apparently the largest personal collection in the world. I would trade 10 of his warehouses for this pristine collection. This one is absolutely amazing!
"Here's the FIRST truck." lol
Reminds me of classic fire arms and some of their deals
Did you purchase this collection outright or did you acquire on a consignment agreement.I ask as I
am curious as to the value of a
magnificent Collection.
The packing boxes alone probably cost more than my whole LP collection
Yeah, maybe if he had Conor McGregor packing them.
Holy cow that's impressive collection.
That is unbelievable, I’m totally speechless.
Just like a kid in a candy store. Good haul man!!!
I could spend days digging into this collection 🤓
Brings new perspective on "You can't take it with you!"
Thanks Michael, it's absolutely incredible.
That's a fantastic treasure find! Just to pull out some of those original pressings & jackets and look at 'em would be a pleasure! @ 1:10 Chad says, " The second truck got confiscated ". My god! Does that mean they took away all the records in that truck??? I hope not! Thank you for yet another interesting video.
More likely impounded. If the cargo isn't illegal they should have a chance to get it back but they would have to pay a fine.
I can't imagine how it would feel to let a collection like this go if you were the owner. Sure, material things are always just material things (you can't take it with you and all that), but something like this takes a lifetime to accumulate.
Amazing, amazing, amazing. I would love to browse all this stuff! I would even forget to eat, haha.
This is so awesome thanks for posting!!
I assume the owner passed away. It is excellent all these records will find new homes and folks will enjoy them.
Wow! I’ve never seen anything like this before. I think this guy’s collection outdid even Chad’s that I saw on another video.
Those speakers were awesome!
Now this is a true mega vinyl haul.
I have one problem ...the new records you have pressed waiting for an owner are grossly leaning and warping on shelves behind you. And you are supposed to be the Guardians of the grail....I think not!

Those are pre-owned records.
love to hear my bearded man enthuse about the guys collection..... each to their own and you cannot deny this is an amazing archive.

Absolutely breathtaking ! Thanks for sharing ! Hope to make a purchase or two later on. Cheers !

Just wondered what would be the top 3 albums I should look out for. I've got a shop near me that doesn't sell on the internet and he's been going for 40 years
John sweda I taste great!
Man, would I love to pick those sealed rock LPs.
Wow....this is incredible!

And I was thinking my 800 records haul was a big deal!
Wow, good luck folks!
LongPlayVinyl 800 is impressive as well
The poor guy collected these all over his lifetime and couldn't even enjoy them (as you hear most of them were sealed) and now he sold them all coz there's no much time to live. It's life.
The the collectors house must have been the "FT. Knox" of vinyl records.
Oh man.. I'm at a modest 2000 records right now at the age of 27... I can only dream of having such an eclectic collection.
enjoy what you got - once you're over 5000 records you won't have time to play them anyway. it's quality over quantity. everything else is just hoarding...
That sealed Nevermind is probably 1500 - 2k by now
OK, I can't... Perhaps... OK I admit, I am speechless! FAN-tastic!
why won't my goosebumps go away.....
6:40 I sure hope those are records stored like that in the background. For people that supposedly know so much about vinyl.........
Pretty awesome collection. I'd love to actually have time to listen to the music I already have on CD and records.
I wonder what this cost?
Where you I start to look if I want to find some all analogue releases? As it's well known many newer releases starts as a digital master
I wonder why this collector decided to get rid of his entire collection if that is in fact all of his or her record collection sold to Acoustic Sounds. Wow that is one hell of a collection. My father and I combined have about 400 records. He has the most since has been collecting for the past 35 years.

400 records that's not a collector or a listener. I had 500 records by the time I was 18 back in 1973.
lol, yeah, when they were cheap! These fucking records are becoming waaay overpriced!
People eventually get hard of hearing and even (gasp) _die._ Their loved ones generally do not hold nearly as much of an interest in the hobby. The rest is not overly hard to imagine.

400 records is a lot to someone like me. I love music and buy one or 2 a month you ass
I wasn't bragging that this many records are in my household. I own about 120 records. The collection i have doesn't compare to others here in the vinyl community here or on Steve Hoffman Forum. I love music too and thats why i listen to every genre of music.
Is there a way I can work for you? I'll do it for free, anything to learn how get involved in your vinyl world.
where's the whipped cream :)
I bet there's a box of Herb Alpert somewhere in that collection!
I thought this video is about Acoustic Sounds buying lots of original studio tapes.
That guy must have been loaded.
Thanks for being so passionate about what you do.

10c / record seems to be realiable price
Wow.. the guy they brought the records off just had way to much time on his hands.
Does he have Funny Frank and the Franknotes "Aural Diarrhea" album? I'd give you $10,000 for that.
What an awesome collection! However, let's not forget that records were/are a mass produced medium meant to enjoy by listening, not an object to fawn over.

Nate, how about original Blue Note's, original Dylan and Beatles??
all those in their twenties or thirties with disposible incomes...have at it..what a field day..oh happy days!!!😎
Alan Senzaki "with disposable incomes" ......ha! There are maybe a few from Rich families nowadays.
Alan Senzaki is
Did the owner simply decide to sell, or did he pass away?
They confiscated Chad's jams. You should ask them if they know who they are dealing with!
any kraftwerk LPs?
that sealed nevermind..
Amazing would love that Hell Freezes Over is there a Dina flex Bowie MHSTW or Hunky Dory/
Thelma Houston & Pressure Cooker - I've Got The Music In Me direct to disc pressing, sealed for $130 is not a bad deal considering there are barely any left and they are selling for twice that. . Hell Freezes over now listed for $600 and I'll pay that when...well you can probably guess.
Did anybody me notice that nice Magnavox imperial from 1959 behind him taping the boxes?
The source of the corrugated shipping boxes marked "Phonograph Records" in the video, please. Where are they available? Thanks?
I don't know but I'd try Uline.com
Appreciated the quick reply, but Uline does not offer such a box. Never saw these kind of boxes, specifically pre-printed for records. Hope other viewers of the video have a clue.
Martin Natchez I’ll see what I can find out
Will be glad for any further assistance.
Martin Natchez Acoustic Sounds sells them on their website
I wonder how much they paid for it all?
buy for cheap! now sell for tons of money, scalpers!
I wonder how much money the guy who sold it lost?
Ron Jones Why is that your concern? Have you taken his listening pleasure over the years into account?
That brings up the question of how many of those records did he listen to over the years? I'm a record collector with a couple thousand albums, and I'm well aware of the kind of prices most dealers give when you try to sell them albums.

Looking for bob weir ace and any good bootlegs please let me knw
Holy cow, this is insane.
$1MUSD+?
Any rare death, black, doom, sludge, or thrash metal in there?
neuroisis85 Not likely!
no he bought a record collection, not a pile of shit.
Bob Dobalina Thin ice buddy...
Impressive!
Can i get in on those pearl jam ten albums?
Roughly 1-1.5mil+ street value worth of plastic...nice one ;)
.Great Job !.....
That's pretty impressive I bet hes kept one or two, gotta wonder how much overall he spent.
Love to see what you have Buddy Holly originals
Why did he sell this? I'd take this collection to my grave
From 'trane to Cannibal Corpse ? That would be my definition of *eclectic*, but sadly my last skim through a used record barn left me unimpressed : Nana Mouskouri, Whitney Houston and pretty much every one-hit wonder pop wannabe you can name (Aqua would be considered royalty amongst this lot). Thanks for the vid.
Any Thriller?
Wow!
I know what kind of albums but any beatlrs or solo beatles
my god... how much did AS pay for all this?
That is Probably a closely guarded secret.
So then you pass and your wife just get rid of everything LOL
RIP to whoever. Wow.
Thats not a second press Dark Side, it doesnt even have Made in GT Britain on the label. I have the second generation release myself and honestly the full blue prism isnt even that rare. Does the guy really know what hes talking about...
Leon thepro I’m impressed that you can see what’s not visible on the label in that video. The full blue prism label is that rare relative to the number of copies pressed of DSOTM.
Leon thepro full blue is rare. I’ve seen one copy in a used record store...in Japan.
Analog Planet I live in Sweden, maybe you should have come for a visited a decade ago ;^)
Leon thepro but I did a decade ago and two years ago too!
Analog Planet Im sure you found some other great stuff in those days. Records like the now expensive UK Swirl Black Sabbath Paranoids would be found in the dollar bins. Although not just 2 years ago.
And 80% of that is junk?
Ahaha, Yeah! Walter Wanderly, 1001 Strings boxsets and Tim Weisberg...no thanks!
Don't know what you're talking about, that's good music and generally great quality recordings. 101 Strings has some great albums.
Javier Martinez are you on drugs? It’s 100% excellent stuff
Absolutely amazing! How does the collector let go of this??
Unfortunately, you can't "take them with you".
They pass away to the great record store in the sky
I Am Looking The Record "Van Halen 1984" & "Rush Moving Pictures" & "Pearl Jam Ten" Please Respond Thank You
Any James Brown in that collection. Oops, have you heard of James Brown?
But why? Why?
80s Boogie??🤔
Guy didn't have a mind of his own.
I would bet that this collector didn't have a wife to put a stop to the madness. Like mine did.
What are you going to do with all of it? It'd be nice if you digitize it or otherwise make it available to the public. I hate to see it just remain a hoard.
Did you NOT hear that it is all for sale to the public?
Acoustic Sounds is a dealer.
Oh my lord
