Instant Killer Aussie 45 collection, anyone?

[bosshoss]

A friend of mine wants to sell his entire collection of australian 60s garage 45s. It's quite a prime collection, and he would prefer to sell in one lot. He promises a good price, which he would negotiate with a serious potential buyer. I won't be involved in any way with the transaction, as I'm just doing him a favor by putting up this list. I have bought quite a few discs from Nick over the years and have always been pleased with his grading and service.
If anyone has a genuine interest in acquiring this incredible collection, let me know and I'll put you in touch with Nick.

Wow. I'll contact him about buying a few, but I have a lot of them already. I think I met him once.

Great selection, "Raining teadrops" by Barrington Davies is a big fave in this house.

 

[down-n-out]

Does he have a ballpark dollar amount in mind? I'm very interested but not having any idea of the price he's looking for makes it difficult.

 

[KittyKat65]

That's a very impressive collection. I think I have only ever seen 20 of those and owned about 10! And I am from Australia! I may be way off, but that has got to be at least $30,000.

I wouldn't mind an upgrade of the Elois, but who wouldn't?

 

[Michael W]

My Elois is a G, so the only way is up.

I received an email from Nick today. He says that the entire collection has been sold, almost all to one collector. As I stated earlier, he preferred to sell the collection in one lot.
