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..

THE VINYLS   MINT- STRONG

As you can see, this vinyl is the highly prized  ORIGINAL  1st  GRAMOPHONE RIM UK pressing - HEAVYWEIGHT PRESS

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

ARCHIVED AWAY IN A PRIVATE COLLECTION SINCE ITS RELEASE,  THIS IS QUITE JAW DROPPINGLY GOOD!

PLAYED JUST A FEW TIMES, THE VINYLS BOTH  REMAIN IN STUNNING CONDITION

This vinyl shows just a couple of spider lines around the centre hole

No wear to the hole at all

The vinyls are gleaming  with just some TINY FEINT  whisp - and thats about it! - it is quite amazing how this record set has been preserved like this since it was pressed!

BOTH LP have just the lightest lead in static and nothing else of any note anywhere at all. 

IT PLAYS STUNNING THROUGHOUT!!!

OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION. YOU WILL NOT SEE BETTER.

THE SPINE IS PRISTINE, THERES JUST SOME LIGHT TIP RUB ON ALL CORNERS
