'ITS THE VINYL COUNTDOWN'

Welcome to 'Its the vinyl countdown' music auctions. Here you will find some of the most incredible rare records and music memorabilia for your collection. We pride ourselves on auctioning only the highest grade records and items, you will not see anything listed here below EX+ condition, unles the item is extremely rare. You will not see worn covers, warped records or scratched records. We simply do not bother with them.

We list in many cases, 'Archived' & 'mint' condition items, we are able to source from private collections all over the UK. So we hope you can be put at ease that what you are bidding on is of the highest quality.

We play through most of the records, unless the item is clearly mint, or sealed..in which case we don't play them, thus maintaining their 'unplayed' status!  Obviously with some of these rare items there will be the odd 'anomoly' along the way , the odd little static pop or lead in 'sizzle' for a split second.. nothing is perfect we find! all systems differ, but we aim to describe these as accurately as possible for you.... PLEASE ENJOY THIS ITEM YOU ARE NOW LOOKING AT..

AS YOU WILL SEE: 

THESE COPIES ARE BECOMING VERY HARD TO FIND

Just one example from this staggering collection we are offering..

THIS COPY REALLY IS QUITE SUPERB.. A STUNNING PLAY AND STILL IN SUPER CLEAN CONDITION

THERE ARE SOME VERY VERY LIGHT WHISP LINES, AND A COUPLE OF VERY FEINT HAIRLINES & A COUPLE OF LITTLE LIGHT SCUFF DULL MARKS THAT DO NOT AFFECT THE PLAY

WAY BELOW AVERAGE SKATE LINES AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE

OVERALL THIS IS A SUPERB EXAMPLE OF THIS HIGHLY PRIZED LP.  AS GOOD AS YOU WILL SEE.

THE WHOLE RECORD PLAYS AMAZING.. BARELY A HINT OF LEAD IN STATIC, AND JUST THE ODD LITTLE STATIC IN A FEW PLACES ALONG THE WAY - A FANTASTIC LISTEN

SOME VERY VERY FEINT LITTLE STATIC IN A FEW PLACES, BUT WE EVEN FEEL A PROFESSIONAL HOOVER CLEANER CAN GET THIS GONE. 

THE LP HAS BEEN STORED AWAY FOR DECADES AND IT IS A JOY TO OFFER IT TO YOU.
