Sadly I have never found a gold mine in record collections. They have all been dumpster fodder..

My experience is record collections (or what are left of them) are all junk.
The actually good stuff is long gone, and what is left are the ones no one else wanted.

So I think you may be disappointed.
And yes the owners gushed over them like a prized wonder...
So take your time, look at them well.. Inspect them if you can.
And yes a buck a pop is a good price for an average collection

(But I bet you walk away shaking your head.. Either he wants crazy high prices, or the stuff is worthless, or both.)

I am sorry to be so pessimistic, but my experience says a pig in a poke is usually just a rabid raccoon. Now if a lot of folks would write here how they do find wonderful collections every day at great prices..
I am still waiting for the garage sale with thousands of early Jazz titles in near mint condition at five for a dollar...
