The Records By Mail Story
My story begins in 1974 when an 18-year-old blues lover decided to turn his hobby into a business serving similarly obsessed collectors.
Armed with $1000, my younger brother, Keith and I set off across America in a '65 Ford Galaxie. Over the course of six weeks, we covered a dozen states and 6,000 miles, diving into dusty stacks in already plundered warehouses and stuffing what we bought into the trunk of our car. Despite the suspicion we caused among Texas state troopers and by-the-hour hotel operators, the trip proved to be a shoestring success, leading to hundreds of other trips over the next 28 years.
Today, Recordsbymail.com offers one of the most comprehensive selections of vinyl LPs and 45s available anywhere. Housed in a 6,000 square foot warehouse that currently holds over 2 million records, my talented, dedicated staff (Erik, Deb, Jeff, Claire and Howard) serve music lovers in more than 60 countries.
While our website helps us satisfy the cravings of our customers more efficiently, I still log thousands of miles each year - usually by plane rather than muscle car - always in search of more collectible gems.
We are always looking to improve the quality of our service, and we update our database every day, so expect new titles and new improvements with alarming frequency.
