Here's the problem

If your friend sells the records himself, he is selling his personal possessions, and there is no tax hit. If he gives them to someone else to sell on consignment, whatever they sell for becomes taxable income to the seller. When you crunch the numbers and consider all the work that it takes, it's easy to see why dealers will not usually agree to sell on consignment, unless the records are extraordinarily valuable.
