HI THERE,

I HAVE DECIDED TO SELL A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF MY PERSONAL VINYL ALBUM COLLECTION, MANY OF WHICH ARE VERY HARD TO FIND IN THIS CONDITION. I NEED THE SPACE!

ALL ALBUMS HAVE BEEN EXCEPTIONALLY WELL CARED FOR AND MOST, IF NOT ALL, ARE IN MINT/NEAR MINT OR EXCELLENT CONDITION, WITH VERY LITTLE PLAY ( MOST HAVE NOT BEEN PLAYED FOR VERY MANY YEARS). A LARGE PROPORTION OF THEM ARE FIRST & EARLY PRESSINGS. I HAVE A TECHNICS SL 1200 MK5 DECK AND HAVE ONLY EVER USED VERY HIGH QUALITY CARTRIDGES & STYLII. 

I USE THE RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING SYSTEM AS A GUIDE TO VINYL, SLEEVE & LABEL CONDITION -(I AM VISUALLY GRADING ONLY).

JUST A QUICK WORD ON VINYL CARE......

ALL OLD VINYL RECORDS BENEFIT FROM A PROFESSIONAL CLEAN - EVEN THE MINT/ NEAR MINT ONES WHICH RETAIN THEIR VIBRANT ORIGINAL SHEEN (WHICH ALMOST ALL OF MINE DO), SO PLEASE CONSIDER THIS BEFORE PLAYING. AFTER ALL, MANY OF THESE RECORDS HAVE BEEN STORED FOR 40 - 50 YEARS! 

I WILL BE LISTING THE ALBUMS OVER THE COMING TWO MONTHS (APRIL & MAY), SO PLEASE KEEP CHECKING FOR NEW ALBUMS.

ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK. THANKS FOR LOOKING, AND GOOD LUCK.
