Carolina Record Buyers Alton Anderson · Summerville, South Carolina

Got a stack of old records and nobody's sure what to do with them?

That's most of my calls. Somebody passed, or a house is being cleared — and there's two hundred records nobody's played since 1985.

I'll come look at them, for free, and tell you honestly what they're worth. If you want to sell, I pay cash that day. If you don't, no harm done.

Call or text me  

Seven days a week, 9 in the morning to 8 at night.

Rather write?

What I'm looking for

Almost anything on a record. These especially:

  • Gospel — quartet, choir, jubilee, and records a church pressed itself
  • Rock — surf, garage, classic, and anything in between
  • Soul and R&B — Motown, Stax, deep soul, doo-wop, funk, disco
  • Jazz and blues — bebop, spiritual jazz, Delta and electric blues
  • Anything else — reggae, hip-hop, rock, country, Latin
  • 45s — the little ones in shoeboxes are often the good ones
  • A whole room — estates, downsizing, a church clearing out its library

You don't have to know what you've got

Almost nobody does — that's my job, not yours. I'll go through the stack with you and say plainly what's there. If something's worth real money, you'll hear it from me before you decide.

What happens when I come out

  1. You call or text. Roughly how many records, what town you're in, and some pictures if you can.
  2. We pick a time that suits you. Your home, your church, a storage unit — wherever they're sitting.
  3. We go through them together. I'll tell you what I'm seeing, including anything unusual.
  4. I write down an offer. On paper, with my name on it, so you can think it over or show family.
  5. You decide. Yes, and I pay cash and carry every box out. No, and I thank you for your time.
