    I'm sorry you "totally disagree" with me! I don't "totally disagree" with you, in fact I would say you are right, in the circumstances you outline, where a record is ultra rare then condition may be less important, but for the less rare stuff condition is vital. You do give me hope that in among the 4,500 (approx) singles clogging up various spaces in my house is a single in shit condition that is worth 5 grand. The problem is a) finding it and b) recognising it!
    Apologies if you think I was being rude, that wasn't the intention.
  • When selling vinyl on eBay I found that early to mid 90s albums, which most people bought on cd at the time, fetched higher prices. Things like Smashing Pumpkins, Pixies, The Breeders, Throwing Muses. Also made a few quid from Tom Waits Black Rider and Bone Machine Lps.
  • I used to have one of these

    had about 80 classic singles, well classic by my standard, that it could hold. Kept it in the studio I had at the time.

    When I left I couldn't get anyone willing to take it down three flights of stairs, needed a crane, that I couldn't afford. So ended up leaving it at the studio.

    Always regret it :(

    No worries - I was surprised that you used that expression when I think we have a similar take on the situation.

    Still got my 1957 Wurlitzer, but haven't used it for about 6 months - need to load records onto it.
  • Got a load of hip hop, grunge and techno on vinyl and 2 technics 1210 decks. Always think about selling the decks but can't be bold enough to do it. It would be sacrilege to sell the vinyl.
  • Any recommendations for a good USB turntable?
  • Any considering chucking/selling vinyl albums/singles give me a shout, I'm not after anything to specific but have an interest in 60/70/80 stuff.

    Richer Sounds have a Sony PSLX 300 USB turntable for £79 currently, £30 off RRP.

    Been using Richer Sounds for over 30 years, brilliant company imo.
  • Anyone with 60s & 70s stuff who wants to shift them, take them to the Shugahill cafe on Kirkdale by Cobbs Corner and talk to Chris.

  • I am looking to buy a 12" of thunderstruck and don't want to use ebay, do any of you wonderful lifers know of a decent/reliable website I can use?
    Much obliged BBB
  • I too am the proud owner of a technics SL and a shelf full of vinyl.
    Looking for a amp/fm/ DAB radio unit that I can plug my SL into.
    My old separates are well knackered.
    If It could also link phone/IPad with Bluetooth, then better still.
  • All my vinyl is from the late 80’s early nineties rave scene, bought from Black Market Records in Soho, noe Centreforce Radio is back on get to listen to a lot of them every day.

    I can’t imagine many other people own this?

    Who wants to start the bidding? Shall we say 5k?

    EDIT just seen you can get it on discogs for £0.12...

    Done ... give me 5k and I’ll take it off your hands.
  • my father in law is sitting on a genuine goldmine of vinyl

    He is up for selling it but for some reason regardless of the training I've given him will not use eBay. When he does finally do it (I do it for him) he will pull in a fortune. Amongst others he has a mint first edition of the white album with the 00 serial number on. Along with pretty much every meaningful LP from 1960 to 1988.

    We bought him a new turntable a couple of Christmases ago but he refuses to play these genuine classics on it!

    Remember that one, ends earlier than anyone expected
  • Freecycle or similar sites are a good source of sound equipment. I picked up a Garrard 301deck a few years back plus several sets of speakers for nowt. Garrard needed mounting in a bit of plywood; sounds great, they go for hundreds on EBay!
