Description

Here is your opportunity to purchase some rare and collectable LP's at a great price!

I have collected Lp's for the past 30+ years, it's time to finally let this collection go to new homes. I worked in a couple used record stores during my youth, which afforded the opportunity to purchase many of the items you will see posted. Many rare and promotional pieces will be offered, as well as the norm. I will list this collection gradually over the next couple of years (10000 pieces+). A large portion of the collection will be Heavy Metal/Hard Rock and Alternative/Indie. I do not have the collection organized anymore, so please do not ask for spacific items not listed. I will be opening one box at a time(all stored for the last 14 years).

I am not a record grader, I know each of us sees things with a different eye. The condition of most items is fantastic, alot of the lp's havent been played or rarely played. I will try and list any visible flaws. Do not bid on items thinking they are "mint". As a seller on ebay for the past 15 years, I am only concerned with the satisfaction of my customers. Please, if you have any concern after receiving your lp(s) contact me directly. Please see my feedback. So here we go, please keep watching and bidding!! I hope you enjoy these albums as much as I have.

Shipping:Free Domestic shipping. This includes a well packaged lp, shipped in an actual lp shipper. Priority mail.

International shipping: $14-18

Feel free to combine lots for discount

Will be shipped in a sturdy lp shipper.

Please Read:Alot of the lp's you will see in the next few months came from an underground collage radio station WBSU (Brockport,NY). I was able to purchase a large quantity of the vinyl they had accumulated over a 30+ year period. Most of the jackets have the call letters written on them, along with some catalog stickers and comments. Please look at the pix carefully for jacket condition. The vinyl on almost all the pieces is fantastic, many look non-played. They really took care of the library. You will see tons of rare promotional/vintage indie/alternative/punk bands along with many other genres including reggae/electronica/rap. If you see a catalog label on the jacket, it's most likely from this incredible collection.
