THE DROP LIST · EARLY ACCESS

First crack at fresh pulls.

New records hit the floor every Friday. Subscribers see them — and reserve them — twenty-four hours before they go public. No spam. No filler emails. Just the heat.

// THE MANIFESTO

We don't carry filler.
We carry weight.

"Twelve Inch Records is the way the record store used to feel — before the algorithm flattened it."

Every record on this site was pulled by hand from estate sales, basement crates, weekend pickers, and the kind of collections that don't post online. Pennsylvania has more 1970s soul, funk, and gospel sitting in attics than any city has any right to.

We dig. We grade. We clean. We listen. Then we list. If a sleeve is bent, we say so. If the vinyl skips, it doesn't go on the shelf. The price is the price. We don't haggle and we don't lowball — but we also don't carry anything we wouldn't put on our own turntable.

This isn't an algorithm picking what's hot. This is a curator who grew up between Harrisburg's church choir and a Stax 45 collection. You buy here, you buy taste.

// THE PROCESS

Four steps. One record.

From the dusty bin to your turntable, every record passes through the same four hands.

01
DIG

We work a private route across Pennsylvania every week — estate sales, weekend pickers, basement collections, the rooms nobody else gets into. Our software flags lots worth a closer look. The real picks come from our hands in the bins.

02
GRADE

Sleeve and vinyl graded on the Goldmine scale. Mint, Near Mint, VG+, VG. We listen to flag any pop, skip, or surface noise. Honest grades only.

03
CLEAN

Vinyl run through a deep wet-clean. Sleeves lightly brushed. Original inner sleeves preserved when intact, replaced with anti-static when not.

04
SHIP

Proper LP mailers with corner protectors. Tracked. We pack like the records belong to our grandmother. Because some of them probably did.

// SELL TO US

Got crates?
We'll dig.

Inherited a collection. Cleaning out the basement. Closing a record store. Send us a photo of the spines. We don't lowball — we just don't lie.

We pay cash, store credit (at 1.4×), or 50/50 consignment on collections worth digging.

If your crates have any of the following, we want to hear from you within the hour:

  • Pre-1980 Soul, Funk, Jazz, Gospel
  • Northern Soul / 45s / Promos
  • Hip-Hop OG pressings (1979–1995)
  • Reggae / Dub / Lovers Rock
  • Independent Black-owned label pressings
  • Anything with a "DJ Promo" sticker on the sleeve
