record collectors/record collecting/ e bay


I assume everybody here is tired of e bay's  no nothing redneck  record "dealers"? These hillbillies  are killing any enjoyment left  in  in a declining business .I'm  sick of it!.  Expensive AND chit quality! 

I have to admit smart folks dropped vinyl 20 years ago. The genius dropped it in the 90's. Once rock and roll became declasse,, this thing died.

No worries my friend!

I agree there is a lot of junk on ebay for sure, just I have gotten pretty good at picking out the chaffe I think.

However I will agree I still much prefer to buy from my lrs where possible, but for those rarer hard to get albums not always possible!
Jesus EBM, why don’t you just flat out insult me!

Your statement infers that I am quite happy spending my hard earned money on "garbage" vinyl!


Its like most areas of buying sight unseen, you need do your homework first.
Feedback on eBay can be very useful as well the sellers other items for sale.

I think out of all the vinyl I have purchased on eBay and Discogs only 1 album fell way below my expectations.

Of course I really prefer a trip to my LRS so I really know what I am getting but that is another story!
