My love for music started with my parents, and in my early teens my mom let me have her record collection, which got me in to bands like Steely Dan, Chicago, Deep Purple and a million others...it was like my gateway in to 'real' music. Some years later, in the early 2000's, my sister and I bought her one of those Sony all-in-one SACD/DVD home theatre in a box setups as a Christmas present because I knew how many of the bands we both liked were available in high resolution surround.
Over the next 10 years she amassed a nice little collection, but in 2006 she got a pretty aggressive form of cancer and in the aftermath of her 18 month recovery period she lost her job and was forced to declare bankruptcy. More recently her Sony system bit the dust and we just don't have the money to replace it for her, so her surround collection is sitting on the shelf gathering dust. I told her about the market for these discs and we agreed that I'd sell them so we can try and get her retirement savings started again.
Below is a list of her collection. I'd really like to sell it as one big lot, but I'll entertain offers for some or part of it too. It probably goes without saying that I think my mom is a strong and incredible woman, and I'm looking to get as much money for her collection as possible, so please bear that in mind if you're interested in anything. Having said that, I am reasonable, and I will let the whole collection go for a fair price if it means I can avoid eBay fees. I'll probably take offers for the next week or so, and make decisions next weekend. If the offers aren't high enough, this stuff will be going on eBay.
If you're interested in anything, send me a private message. I can provide pictures of specific titles on request.
