All images are of the actual items, so you know exactly what you are bidding for. No ‘stock images’ here! Sleeves and labels (both sides) are fully and individually displayed so you can see any defects, or rather see that there are none.

Descriptions and gradings ('Goldmine' grading system) are as accurate and realistic as possible and are based on a thorough visual inspection, under bright light, and play-testing in certain cases. Each record is cleaned prior to dispatch.

My Starting Bid is calculated using a software-based algorithm which utilises price data from several sources, including Discogs, combined with the 'Goldmine' record grading system, and as such is realistic and accurately reflects the real value of the record based on its scarcity and condition. Not all records are equal! Not after 30-40 years anyway. You should expect to pay more for a record in near mint condition than you would for a record with several scratches on it. I will de-list a record rather than sell it for less than it is worth.

Postage discount: If you purchase multiple items, message me to request an invoice. Postage (and packing) will be charged for a single item.


I often get messages of the kind "Discogs says it's only worth..." etc. Discogs is NOT a valuation site!. It's a useful guide, nothing more! The Lowest/Median/Highest amounts are not definitive valuations, they merely represent what people have paid for particular records through the site. Lowest represents the lowest amount paid for a record (e.g., £5.00), Highest represents the highest amount paid for another copy of the same record, (e.g., £50.00).

Median is the mid-point of all transactions, excluding the Highest and Lowest, when they are listed in ascending order. It is NOT the price that most people have paid, as some people mistakenly believe. The whole dataset could range between just above the Lowest figure to just below the Highest, i.e., £5.01 to £49.99. Half the transactions that fall within the range will be greater than the displayed Median 'value' (representing better quality), the other half will be lower and very likely lesser quality. So, not everyone who bought a record got a great quality record.

There is a link between condition and price. The better the quality, the higher the price. Here is a general guide.

Lowest  equates, in general terms, to lowest quality (vinyl may to be heavily scratched, sleeves likely to be heavily creased or torn).

Median  equates to generally good quality (vinyl may have surface scratches, sleeves may have light creases).

Highest equates to highest quality (Excellent to Near Mint condition, no scratches and minimal wear on sleeves)

If we assume £5.00 is representative of Poor quality and £50 represents Near Mint, then Median (Very Good) may be around £25, Very Good+ (£30) and Excellent (£40).

If you want good quality collectable records, you should expect to pay somewhere between the
Median and the Highest price, dependent on the minimum level of quality you are willing to tolerate.
