When possible, I think many of your viewers would also enjoy hearing a bit of the backstory of the seller on large buys like this one. As collectors, it's always interesting to hear how others went about acquiring their's over time.
I immediately wanted to know the seller's story, and reasons for dumping the collection. (From the way Dillon laid out the narrative, it sounded like he was dealing directly with the collector. But, it could also have been an estate with a knowledgeable and savvy executor.)
@@HisboiLRoi with all items has price tag, this must be from a closing down shop. See the still picture with all gears, they have yellow price tags on them. Plus those multiple copies of many albums are proving my theory.
Well said,but you can't take it with you,and after watching many big scores in the comic business,this kind of find becomes easier to watch / less painful.
i mean atleast he will do the work to get these records out into the public and not just tossing them all into his "collection" and hoarding everything lolol . so that makes it a bit easier to watch someone else get such an awesome score lol
I'm so glad you were able to obtain this incredible vintage collection. The record Gods have kept it in great hands, because it is very obvious that the seller really took great care of that vinyl.. and love those reel to reels also..
What really sucks is when you become addicted to collecting, you amass so much that you totally forget specific items you collect and you either purchase them again by mistake, or they get lost in your collection never to be used or seen again, like they fall into a void. While I do not collect vinyl records (I collect fragrances, vintage and new) I can see how just having a shelf or 2 could create this scenario, so I can imagine how rooms and rooms of records can amplify this experience of things getting lost to the void.
@@crazyprayingmantis5596 if stored properly from the time of original purchase (meaning kept in a cool, dark place away from warmth, humidity, and sunlight) their fragrance can last indefinitely, decades. Some of the fragrance notes will diminish over time (usually the lighter notes, like citrus notes or soft white floral notes) but other than that, the fragrance won't change much over time, again, when kept properly. However, and this does happen regularly, if you are on the hunt for a vintage bottle of any fragrance, you must be careful, because it was common practice, still is to some degree, to keep cologne or perfume bottles in bathrooms where humidity changes regularly, so its important to buy local whenever possible so you can smell it before you buy, because the wrong conditions can most definitely cause a fragrance to go rancid.
@@crazyprayingmantis5596 it's really fun, but can get quite expensive. Scent memory is the strongest of all the senses, meaning a certain smell can take you back to a time and place within your memory better than anything else like taste or hearing, so it gets really cool when you come across a fragrance that takes you back to you childhood or a memory of a certain place or relationship to someone.
My girlfriend in high school used to wear CK Obsession, not sure if that's made anymore, but I found an old magazine once with with one of those scented ad inserts and it was quite a trip back in time.
I have a friend who lives/lived in Portland Oregon, unfortunately I’ve lost contact with him, I last visited him 3 years ago and he wasn’t in great health. Anyway he was a DJ and a Professor of music, has/had an extensive record collection, I’ve known him since 1972 and is in his 80’s. His collection is similar size to this one, just hope someone with love and care is treating his collection with respect!
@@noblerecords Dylan, that copy of disintegration looks like the promo that was pressed on JVC super vinyl. If you hold it up to the light you'll be able to tell. The promo copies were the only ones pressed on the JVC vinyl. Either way those DMM first pressings with the textured sleeves are the best of that album. If I were you in would put that one in my collection, they are only gaining value.
Simply amazing! Oh all those home collections in rural America that are waiting for re-distribution! That's what you do, Dillon. You free them. Your're a vinyl emancipator!
Amazing. My brain would explode if I took on that massive of a record haul. Also, I bought that Talking Heads album with the plastic cover designed by artist Robert Rauschenberg back in 83 when it was released and yes, it was crystal clear and faded to yellow over time.
I got a BEAUTIFUL copy of that first Lee Morgan record in a Goodwill BIN, along with a couple of other gems, Max Roach, and JImmy Witherspoon and others. That was the score of the year.
This is only in America- 10 years ago I was visiting every goodwill store and bringing home 5 to 10 boxes of records weekly. That was before and now all is about profit and score for the whole world to see.
I will say it now, The Smiths UK LP's on Rough Trade are undervalued. I got all their official studio albums earlier this year and they were like $50-60CAD each shipped (from one UK seller). That's a bargain since their reissues from a few years ago are pricey and even Canadian or US copies are selling for as much.
Some very cool records! I'm a huge Sam Cooke fan. I wish you would've shown whatever album you picked up by him. His original pressings have been hard to come by already for years, and getting harder all the time to find them in decent condition.
These are my favorite videos to watch! Its so cool seeing all the amazing records you find hopefully someday I will make it down to North Carolina to visit your shop, it would be a dream come true for me
Wow very impressive collection. I’m sure that it wasn’t easy to part with for the original owner so I’m glad it will be treated properly and hopefully enjoyed by future collectors for years to come!
Very cool finds you're showing! I got an Uber today and spent 5 hours in my local record store buying some great used LPs. And I decided to try out what you have mentioned before. I think it was you. I decided to just try something based on my initial look at the album cover. Since I'm legally blind, I did put on the LP and sampled three different locations on one side. It looked great but I had to make sure it sounded great. And just those brief samples made me glad I got it and I'm going to check it out probably tonight! I was laughing as you mentioned the four and a half to 5 hours It took to go through all of those boxes. Heck, it took me that long just to find 16 LPs I bought today at my record store haha. I do have one question for you. How do you know for sure when it is a first pressing? I don't see it listed that way on Discogs ever. I've heard all kinds of things like You look for the catalog number that begin with four characters instead of the regular two character letters and then the numbers that follow and other things too but it just doesn't seem to always ring true. I've bought some first pressings that I've been unable to confirm they were first pressings. There's got to be a way besides what's in the dead wax because even if you get all that information it still doesn't say first pressing on Discogs. T hanks for any help... Brian and Fort Worth.
I believe this must be from a closing down shop. See the still picture with all gears, they have yellow price tags on them. Plus those multiple copies of many albums are proving my theory.
What a buy!!! Congrats. As a side note...I finally visited my family in Mint Hill. I was not leaving before getting to the shop and meeting Dylan. Of course it was on the day the hurricane was coming through the area. I got a chance to flip through some vinyl and grab the MOFI Aqualung as a gift for my Brother. Really wish I had more time to hang out...but was great to finally meet you! Thank you for the great videos and the passion you share. By the way...my brothers mouth fell open when he played the record!
Another amazing score! I wish I lived closer because there are a bunch that you showed I'd like to add to my collection. Especially the Cure and Smith's albums, I rarely see them and I've looked in a lot of shops in 4 different states fairly regularly. I guess I need to add Matthew's, NC to my journies.
Holy cow, Dillon! You hit paydirt! I have that Dread Zeppelin album as well and LOVE it! I had a chance to meet and party with the band back when I lived in El Paso, Texas. I was dating a DJ at the time and we hung out with them! Such a great memory!!!
Great haul! Any 45s with picture sleeves or other 12” singles? Like others have said the gear should make you some money and you probably will sell most in a short amount of time.
Pretty amazing video. I am almost tempted to make the drive from Virginia Beach to try and grab some of those Jazz titles. Good luck selling everything!
You can make a lot of money on gear, particularly if you get some good turntables. A lot of new collectors need a turntable, and in many cases amps and speakers. I was helping a friend at a record show in 1993 - he had that CSNY MoFi on his display rack for $120. I asked him if he could really sell it at that price, he said just wait. Sure enough, one of the first buyers to come in asked to see it, and peeled off six twenties without hesitation.
I am very curious how much a haul like this would cost? I am considering opening up a record store and need to figure out some of the costs I will endure. Is there a place to find people selling collections like this? How do you find them?
Even with you whipping through stuff rather fast, I still found a jazz record I decided to track down. So thanks once again for broadening my horizons! Wish I lived close to your store.
Good haul for a generic record store, lots of rock. Last time I picked up a collection this size, looks like 3-4000 vinyls? took me 3 yrs to get into profit, so much work, takes a few weeks just to price it all up.
Man I would love to own that Cure Disintegration, I've only discovered your page recently, how do we buy from you? Is it on your shop only. Do you ship from your shop, I'm in Indiana.
Jeeezz wow, wanna open a Canadian location near the border...?? 😁 (Seriously AWESOME score!!!!) That Devo splash was pressed at Capitol Canada, and they used the same colours for a 45 of I Can't Get No Satisfaction, and a special reissue of Sgt. Pepper. (EDIT: All in 1978.)

Awesome score, dude.

Smell is the strongest emotional tie
Is it rare at all that I have an RL Houses of the Holy? I keep seeing things about RL Led Zeppelin 2 being rare but idk about their other albums
Seen all that 80s metal, Ozzy, Dokken, Priest. Thats stuff I go gaga over.. I need that Ozzy Ultimate Sin...
We are putting it out Saturday!
@@noblerecords Im in Washington state, dont think I can get to your store. Wish I could though.
@@figuresix I have that Ultimate Sin. I can guarantee you, it doesn't sound good. It is horrible mastered.

Great collection. Lots of stuff the regular collector drools over.
Thanks!
A buddy of mine has a house like this. 55, never married and collected records and cds all his life. Upstairs is completely full.
Hello, how eliminate odor from the vinyl covers.
Amazing haul. I can’t imagine it was cheap! Next time I get back to NC, I’m heading your way to check out the shop!
Thanks! Help me recoup this money 🤣

Best record the Dead Kennedys did. Nice.
Very cool Dillan. The American Top 40 box set is a great find. It will all fly off the shelves no doubt. Happy Anniversary!
look at all those MoFi titles :-) Fantastic finds and good luck filing all of them. Great Video thx for Sharing Dillon!!!!!
Man, the smile on your face is fck priceless...just unbelievable video. What a dream purchase ! Congrats.
Great haul. The vintage gear could really be a home run for you.
A my favourite Dead Kenndeys album, wise pick 👌
Simply amazing! Oh all those home collections in rural America that are waiting for re-distribution! That's what you do, Dillon. You free them. Your're a vinyl emancipator!
Wow, you hit the motherlode! That guy must have had everything. So cool to see a fellow collector's enthusiasm!
Amazing. My brain would explode if I took on that massive of a record haul.
Also, I bought that Talking Heads album with the plastic cover designed by artist Robert Rauschenberg back in 83 when it was released and yes, it was crystal clear and faded to yellow over time.
I think that they yellowed relatively quickly, and then stabilized. My copy doesn't look any darker than when I picked it up used 35 years ago.

What hard work to pick up such a large collection. So much to see. With each record you showed, it reveled a little about who owned these 😄
Thank you for showing the reality of owning a record store, a lot of hard work and long hours
Holy crap. Amazing amount of records. You've got a lot of everything. Love your channel.
Enjoy the weekend! Congrats on another year for Noble Records.
Noble Records customers are the luckiest customers. I hope you guys know how good you have it!
Wow everything is in mint condition lucky you. The previous owner really looked after their stuff that's key. Bravo!
Cara, que ótima oportunidade você encontrou! Sensacional!!
WOW..super sweet haul man, a little of everything. Gear, tapes, LP's, etc. I wish I could visit your shop. Who knows, maybe it'll happen some day!
Some very cool records! I'm a huge Sam Cooke fan. I wish you would've shown whatever album you picked up by him. His original pressings have been hard to come by already for years, and getting harder all the time to find them in decent condition.

Congrats on another great haul my friend! Always happy to hear!! \m/

Nice haul man! There is a guy in Lebanon TN. That buys large collections. He recently was in Pennsylvania buying a collection.
Great video...what a haul! Hoping to visit your store at some point. Enjoy the new found wax!
Cool to see The Cure records!

All I can say is “WOW!” Awesome find! I have to get up there with some cash in hand and grow my collection!
Very cool. I love colored vinyl, one of my favorite things to collect
That copy of The Cure's - KIss Me [x3] what is the extra disc I can't find it anywhere. scrap that found it around $100 B-sides from singles
Sweet! @noblerecords is there any Paul Pena in there?
I'd love to get my hands on some of those reel to reels
Awesome haul, covers all the collector's list
WOW 😮 Fantastic , lucky you , and all your happy customers

Wow! Got some killer stuff there. Wish I was closer! Good luck with it. 😎
FANTASTIC HAUL DILLAN.
That’s freakin amazing. Congrats ! Oh and that Lee Morgan I think is his first release. Enjoy !
Thanks man!
can't wait to see the gear. great haul of records. might just have to make the hour trip from salisbury up there this weekend.
Good , another good shot , Noble Records.🎶🎶🎶🎶
Looks like an excellent mix for a store. Nice score!!!

Great stuff! I saw Dread Zeppelin with Tortelvis in Vancouver Canada back in 1992 at a bar. Best live show I may have ever seen!!!
That Santo & Johnny album sounds indeed amazing!
Any chance you are putting that hat on the website?
Love seeing these types of videos
Happy for you man. Great haul.
As a collector myself I'm most impressed with this recent giant collection purchase...yer bread 'n butter!
That Van Morrison Veedon Fleece is a grail for me! That's his best album.
My fav of his also!
Amazing personal collection.
Bet that person was a fun hang.
Pretty amazing video.
I am almost tempted to make the drive from Virginia Beach to try and grab some of those Jazz titles. Good luck selling everything!
This has to be the greatest haul of all time. 🤩
Congratulations Dylan that's a hell of a score bro

What's the history/story behind the collection?
Do you have a copy of Ozzy and Randy Tribute for sale?
Geez Brother!! Amazing Collection!!
Thanks Dan!
