Why big knowledge is important

My name is Ron (owner) and here I hope to convey to you why having a person in the trade with a broad, deep knowledge is important when offering your vinyl.

Among Australian dealers, I consider that I am in the top three with regards to knowledge about records on a broad-spectrum of genres. I have received such comments from others, MANY times in my career. Some may know more about a particular style of folk or jazz, for example "Celtic folk" or "free jazz" but as for an in-depth knowledge about every genre except dance music, I stand by my above statement and I will gladly accept ANY challenge to this claim.

I have been collecting records since about 1982 and dealing in them since 1998 and have seen a MASSIVE number of records, too many to estimate, both in my hands and online and in books and I remember most of them if not all and can use the memory of what they are like & value, in my analysis, when viewing a collection. This can only benefit seller, especially if there are obscure records on offer because, rather than skip over an obscure one and put it in the "no" pile because they don't know it, and don't want to take a gamble, I would put it in the "yes" pile. This means you would get paid for it. It's money you wouldn't have recieved when dealing with such type of inexperienced dealers or a dealer new to the industry. 

There is no amateurism.
