Welcome! I’m Pat Nolen, founder and former owner of Kingfish Records and I currently run the Tampa Record & CD Show. With over four decades of expertise in collecting and evaluating vinyl records and memorabilia, I’m always looking to buy collections large or small. Whether it’s vintage LPs, concert posters, rare T-shirts, or ticket stubs—let’s talk. I’ve been in the vinyl business since the late 70s. I’ve handled everything from one-of-a-kind jazz 78s to full estates of rock collections. I understand the value—both financial and sentimental—of music history. buying vinyl records

📍 Based in Palm Harbor, Florida. Will travel for the right collection.
We ARE looking for Vinyl LPs (big 12” records) and 45s (small 7” records) in the genres of Soul, Rock, Jazz, Gospel, Rap, Disco, World, Funk, Folk, some Soundtrack, Avant Garde, Punk, Metal, Indie etc.
We DO BUY some cassette tapes, CDs, and stereo gear mostly HIGH END (turntables, receivers, and speakers) but are fairly picky about them.
We DO NOT BUY - Xmas, Children’s, Big Band, Broadway Musical, Country, most Classical, Crooner (Sinatra, etc), Easy Listening (101 Strings, Mantovani, Mancini, etc) or Polka, sorry!
Concert Posters - Concert T-Shirts, Ticket Stubs, and many music related types of Music memorabilia we are very interested in purchasing.
CONDITION
This is the biggest factor in pricing. Example: If an album in mint condition is worth $25 and the same title has split seams, ring wear and scuffs on the vinyl, common sense dictates it is not worth the same as the one in mint condition. We do not purchase LP’s without sleeves. 45's on the other hand we will purchase with out sleeves. WE LOVE 45's....
FAIR MARKET VALUE
This is based on current selling prices. If an album sold for a certain price 3 or 5 years ago and the market value has dropped or increased, we pay accordingly. Again, condition is a BIG factor. We want to be fair when it comes to purchasing your vinyl. Supply and demand is always the general rule. If something is rare that doesn’t necessarily mean it is in demand.
I am a serious buyer of vinyl records and will offer you a fair CASH price for your entire collection. I can travel distance for the right collections. Feel free to call me to discuss what you have and I will give you an honest opionion of what your collection could be worth. CALL ME OR E-MAIL
