Q: Are you flipping records?
A: No, I purchase stock directly from labels in bulk with full consent to sell in my store at reasonable prices.Q: Why did you open your own store rather than selling within the community?
A: Ease of access. Simplifying the process of buying records fights fomo. If you can find a record with multiple stock on my website you are less likely to be scalped by someone offering the same record at an inflated price. I'm hoping with my store I can drive down the price of VGM Records to make this hobby more affordable for everyone.
Also running a record store is kind of a dream of mine so yay !! ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ
Q: Why are you selling on Ebay at inflated prices?
A: I am currently temporarily selling records on Ebay as an advertising strategy and I am specifically only selling records that I can offer for less than the lowest listing for that record. This takes away sales from scalpers and lowers prices overall. The inflated price is to cover Ebay fee's so that I can afford to continue running this store.
Q: How is this store positively impacting the vgm record community?
A: I'm hoping having these records more readily available at reasonable prices will take away sales from scalpers and regulate prices within the market. I'm also hoping with my store I can introduce new people to the community so that I can share my hobby with them.Question not answered? Reach out here
