Further Down the Record-Collecting Rabbit Hole

Craigslist yields all sorts of adventures, and albums too.

Record hustling can be fun, but it can sometimes prove to be considerably dangerous and scary. Here's a predicament I found myself in while chasing a record collection in South Brooklyn.

Two summers ago, I was casually browsing Craigslist's "collectibles" category when I came across the following post:

EVICTED! Moving home, need to sell my stuff FAST! TV, Records, Comics, More! - $25 (Mapleton, BK)

Hey there, I was just notified by my landlord that I will not be allowed to live in my current apartment as of this Monday. I have a ton of stuff that I have to get out before then so please let me know what you want right away! Help!

Here's what I have:
- Red Ikea couch 
- Black five drawer dresser
- X Box 360 and 17 games
- DVD/VHS combo
- Boxes of Marvel and DC comics
- Vintage board games
- Large record collection
- Designer housewares
- Microwave (new in box)
- Canon digital camera
- Coffee Maker (new in box)
and TONS more! Please call or text me immediately if you are interested.
