We try to offer you the best friendly service and rare hard to find vinyl etc from our inventory. You will find items beginning in our ebay store and others that will be offered auction style.

A brief note about visual and soundgrading. In the past, we have not had a great turntable to do our soundcheck on; we have since acquired a Pyle Tech USB turntable, and a nice Dual turntable and that will be the sound you will hear when provided on a listing. Please remember some companies did not make the best pressings and there will be flaws in the sound that higher end equipment owners will hear. Your rarer hard to find records are going to be 50 years old or more. We want your purchase to be in an enjoyable, playable condition, however, we may miss a flaw, so be sure and ask your questions and feel free to contact us with an error you may see in the listing. Discerning collectors, ask your pertinent questions to avoid any disappointment. Remember grading is subjective to the person doing the grading. If you need more information, we will provide it for you time permitting. please address any input in a constructive, positive manner! Vinyl is being sold AS IS-AS DESCRIBED by visual grading; some soundgrading will be noted individually, some soundbytes will be provided individually, please review our refund policy for problems.

We recently acquired a very nice collection of mostly original label and pressings, and some original 45 sleeves which are hard to find. The collection is made up of R&B, Soul, Doowop and blues 45s. We have soundgraded the entire record, both sides, to give you an accurate evaluation of sound quality. Many of these records have overall wear and surface scratches, however, they keep on playing. The quality is very enjoyable and you should have a great opportunity to add to your collection. The labels are conditional, I have not elaborated conditions, review the PICTURES PLEASE! You will see some paper tears, a couple with tape, and some will have a spindle hole that has been widened, cut, not many, but again review the pics.

Waiting for a new turntable stylus. As soon as we are able we are going to attempt to add some sound bytes. I still have a little learning curve on this. Re-check your favorites over the next few days, as we are listing primarily without any sound to start. If you have a request, and I am available, I will be happy to accommodate you. Please be patient.
