Item Description
Welcome to my auctions....The time has come to sell my huge record collection over the next weeks/months...so check out my other vinyl listed, more added each week.
I am a private collector, selling my collection, I am not a dealer.
Due to poor hearing, The record is sold as visually inspected so please base your bidding solely on this not what it might sound/play like.
Even the most visually stunning record can have background noise, if you want perfect audio then please find another copy with audio gradings.

PLEASE remember this is Vinyl...even brand new vinyl can have clicks and pops...that s part of its charm...if you want perfect audio without background noise...how about CD s or MP3 s? Due to my poor hearing, The record is sold as visually inspected so please base your bidding solely on this, in the event that a record may not play well or have background noise no refund will be given because I have no way of verifying and as such, if you place a bid you are acknowledging this.
NO POSTAGE/SHIPPING TO ROMANIA With that said....many rarities will be listed, some fair condition some near mint.
Any questions...please ask.
