I use new & s/hand pre-made cardboard mailers for all orders, and these virtually guarantee safe arrival of your record (they are also MUCH faster to pack). Combined postage to anywhere in Australia at cost (or close enough) and is EXTRA (ie. not included in prices). ABSOLUTELY NO LOCAL PICKUPS - don't ask - it's not going to happen. I just don't have the time, sorry. I'm barely at home as it is though, and have no wish to be here waiting around for hours at a time. Lastly - I'm not a shop. There are no credit card facilities and this is not my full-time job (though sometimes it feels like it might be!). It's a hobby we all love, where I will try to make sure that *everyone* wins.  Complain to me loudly if anything goes wrong (although it barely ever does) - and it'll be fixed, in your favour.  Post in this thread to reserve your item(s).

Cover very presentable and tending VG+, but for a little edgewear top/bottom and at opening, small wrinkles along spine, and rubbing on front, a little stronger on back, some light edge bumps. The OIS is a little off-white but looking great, and the wax almost as fresh as a new copy with virtually no wear to be found. $28 David Bowie – ChangesOneBowie – 40th Anniv. black vinyl in shrink (190295994082) NM/NM. Still in 99% factory shrink. 2016 reissue sounds amazing. No wear on any part of the cover, poly-lined paper OIS or record, to speak of. $28 Drive By Truckers – Southern Rock Opera - US 2003 original gatefold edition (0008817030814) VG/NM. Some cover damage to top left corner only (bend/wrinkles) of the gatefold, else shmick all around. Two awesome records without a single mark. $28 B-52’s – B-52’s (ST) – 2018 exclusive Limited Back to 80’s Rhino YELLOW repress (603497859481) NM/NM.

No wear to speak of anywhere. $39 David Bowie – Hours – 2019 Limited edition reissue from Friday Music on blue and gold splatter pattern translucent foldout gatefold (08929421481553) NM/NM. Beautiful individual splatter (no two are the same), which is quite probably the best splatter record I've ever seen. It really is gorgeous to behold and a quite literal work of art. This copy is as good as it gets - no wear to anything, or anywhere. Id prefer to keep this one if you don't. $65 Teenage Wrist - Chrome Neon Jesus - European 2018 press in gatefold (8714092756319) NM/NM. My favourite band of 2018, with gorgeous melodies and crunching fuzz guitar abounding. These guys owe more than a little debt of gratitude to Catherine Wheel, so if you like gazing at yer shoes occasionally, get into this one! As new - this was my second, unplayed,c opy. With download card and still in 99% shrink. Opened and stored. $28 Rolling Stones – Tattoo You – AUS 1981 Maxicut OG (COC 16052) NMNM. Archive quality original 80’s copy w/both original inserts looking fantastic. Cover is unmarked and looks new. Wax looks as new with even the print on the labels looking so fresh it could have been done yesterday. Maxicut mastered at EMI by Greg Henderson (cursive ‘GH’ in the deadwax). Superb example. $45 Roger Waters – The Wall Live in Berlin – 2015 French made 3 Disc set in huge foldout gatefold (888751554115) VG/VG++. The Soundtrack From A Film By Roger Waters And Sean Evans. 3LP in tri-fold jacket on 180-gram audiophile vinyl, includes the 16-page book with color photos. Mastered by ex-Pork's engineer, Barry Grint ('Bazza'). Cover is great but for ripped 3cm x 2cm chunk on the spine, which looks great in the Blake sleeve as it's folded where it should be - only shows when you take it out of the sleeve. Else everything else from the colour OIS (3 x) and the records (also 3 x) are immaculate and as new. $55 Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon - 2016 reissue in gatefold (888751842519) VG++/NM. Cover has only lightest marks, but looks awesome in Blake sleeve. Comes w/everything (poly lined black paper inner, 2 x posters, 2 x stickers, absolutely mint). Record is unplayed and brand new. Basically this one has been opened and put back on the shelf until now. $35 Pink Floyd – Wish you Were Here – 2016 remastered reissue (888751842618) VG+/VG++. The stereo remastered album on Heavyweight 180 vinyl remastered from the original analogue tapes by James Guthrie, Joel Plante and Bernie Grundman. Missing the black wrap, and the postcard. Everything else there and VG++. $35 Pink Floyd – Saucerful of Secrets – 2016 remaster series (888751841918) VG+/VG++. Missing the hype sticker, and some edgewear to the bottom right leading edge of the cover front, few small wrinkles on the back edges.

Lovely OIS. Wax has only the smallest, lightest marks at all. $28 John Frusciante – The Empyrean – 2019 repress dbl black vinyl (0811481011207) VG+/NM. The 2013 original is of course just about unobtanium at any decent price, so this is a very welcome repress. Recut by John Frusciante and Bernie Grundman from the original analog tapes. This double disc LP includes a download card of the album plus bonus tracks in hi-resolution. Cover is fabulous but for some vertical cat scratches along back cover spine, and a wrinkle from the edge. Else the 2 x OIS and records are immaculate. The best thing that ever happened to the Chili Peppers. $55 Dire Straits – Brothers in Arms – AUS 1985 1st press (824 499-1) VG+/NM. Nice front cover with just some very light small edge wrinkles, and a hint of rubbing central front. The back is good with a hint of ringwear. Very nice OIS. Most importantly, a glossy deep black immaculate disc without a single mark, and the ‘A/B’ deadwax marks. Should play without a single sound. $28 Holly Cole – Temptation – US 2018 Classic Record AAP 200 gram gatefold Limited Edition reissue w/three bonus tracks (APP 048) VG/VG++. Cover is good but for some corner bumps, and small bends top right front and back top left. Split edges on bottom edge, but inside gatefold is mint. Two perfect unplayed glossy records, with colour insert. Great set. $75 Melody Gardot – Worrisome Heart - 2018 European repress (602517787568) VG+/VG++. Nice pressing with excellent SQ. Plays at 33rpm, despite labels saying 45rpm! Cover has some minor wrinkles to the edges of the front cover, hint of rubbing on back but as usual, the Blake sleeve hides a multitude of sins. Plain white paper OIS. Wax shows a few light marks only. $28

NB: CONSERVATIVE GRADING… cover first / record grade 2nd _____________________________________________________ 10/6 - NEW items Rolling Stones - Tattoo You - US 1st press 1981 double RL mastered (COC 16052) VG/VG+. Punch hole through bottom left front (right, on the back cover of course), and small wrinkles and chips along the edges, front and back, the only faults . Hard cardboard OIS is great. Specialty Records Pressing with Robert Ludwig mastering both sides. Incredible sound and plays quietly, but with awesome power and SQ throughout. US original 80’s wax skilfully denies any vinyl marks encountered, from altering the excellent quality. $35 Fleetwood Mac - Fleetwood Mac - 1976 US 1st press w/KENDUN Pogo ♡ mastering (MS 2225) VG/VG+. Cover is good but for some rub marks, a wrinkle along the top left front, some small wrinkles on the spine. ‘RM’ written in pen on bottom right back cover (not too bad). OIS is excellent. Wax has small marks and plays with fantastic SQ with only light background noise in-between tracks. Textured cover. These copies have been attracting attention for some time, as the mastering is absolutely on point. If you want to spin a US original of this album, THIS is the version to try. $35 The Rolling Stones - Sticky Fingers - 2018 High Q reissue with excellent SQ – HALF SPEED master by Miles Showell, taken from Stones boxset! (602537648214) – Is a little bass heavy on my system at home, so if your's is a little bass-shy, this new pressing could be the ticket. As new condition all round with insert and looks-unplayed disc (apart from my single spin on 2 tracks, to test it). Not easy to find stand-alone. $35 U2 - Zooropa - 2018 German pressed Ltd. double BLUE remastered vinyl (602567891291) Chris Bellman mastered and sounds great. Exact same stampers as those used for the 2018 black vinyl repress. Cover still in 99% shrink, just opened to check colour. The top right corner has a decent bend in it, else everything else is quite lovely and as NEW. $45 the B-52's - the B-52's - Back to 80's exclusive 2018 YELLOW vinyl press (603497859481) VG++/VG+.

Tiny rub wear detectable on front cover else shmick throughout gatefold. Two fantastic OIS. Records are wonderful, black, glossy and very probably unplayed. $80 $75 Bob Dylan - Blood On The Tracks - 1975 Japanese OG 1st press (SOPO-20) VG+/VG++. Gorgeous copy without OBI, but plays beautifully anyway! Cover has some chips out of the opening, and a few more on the back (none too bad). Otherwise the cover presents really nicely. The 4 page Japanese lyric inner looks great, as does the OIS. The wax is a thing of grace - as usual treated like a child by the original owner, and plays with nary a hair out of place. Give it a clean by your preferred method for a perfect black platter I would guess. $55 $50 $45 Zappa & Mothers of Invention – Burnt Weenie Sandwich – 1998 Limited Simply Vinyl 180gm virgin vinyl sealed copy (643346002514) Sealed NM/NM.

Wonderful album. $30 $28 Hendrix – Experience: Best of Jimi Hendrix – US 2017 double disc gatefold set (889854478711) VG++/VG++. Popular and highly rated SQ compilation. Light edge-wear on front, one very small bumped top right corner on front. Two very nice discs indeed. $32 $28 Rodriguez - Coming From Reality - AUS 1979 Blue Goose repress (MLF 269) VG+/VG++. Great cover with just the minimum bubbling of the laminate that all these copies have. This one is quite minor but for the top right corner where one line goes across each side, however in the supplied Blake sleeve, it can barely be noticed. The wax is absolutely gorgeous and so rarely found in this title - it's clean, glossy and has only the lightest hairlines in strong overhead light. Plays cleanly but for minor low noise in-between tracks. Has not been cleaned and could get better even from here. A superb copy to own and play - the best I've ever come across. $95 Lenny Kravitz - Mama Said - 2018 European only 2LP gatefold on GREY MARBLED vinyl (00602567581918) VG+/NM.

Dynamic, great SQ and what a song list! 'Cold As Ice', 'Urgent', 'Double Vision', 'Waiting For A Girl Like You', 'Feels Like The First Time', 'Hot Blooded'....more. Cover has some minor edge-wear, spine-wear and some cat scratches on the back cover edge. that description sounds far worse than it looks however. :) The vinyl is as NEW. $40 Fleetwood Mac - Greatest Hits - US 2014 issue (081227959357) VG++/VG++. Cover still in 98% factory shrink. No wear. Hype and price stickers in place.

Low numbered #750 gold stamped on rear cover. $75 Midnight Oil - 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 - AUS gatefold original in seal (SBP-237868) Sealed VG++/NM. Remarkable find this. Appears to be an unplayed, as NEW 1982 original Aussie pressing that's been sent to the US for sale, and has been (factory/) sealed on arrival there. Now at last, it's made its way all the way back in the same sealing. Expect a 40 year old Mint disc and all contents. Cover will be a notch off this due to storage. Else a vintage rarity of exceptional quality. $65 ZZ Top - Eliminator - US double 'RL' mastered OG (SRC press 9 23774-1) VG++/VG++. Just out of the factory shrink (which unfortunately tore off when I first picked it up!), this double Robert Ludwig mastered beauty is looking great. Some very light wear to the cover edges from storage rubs, and a little ripping on the OIS. Disc is clean and unmarked - give it a wash and you'll be flying with the Top's most hit-full modern album. $35 Black Sabbath – Sabotage – 1975 Australian press on 'spaceship' labels (6366 115) VG+/VG++. Remarkable condition OG with slightly worn/rubbed cover, and a glossy black vinyl with virtually no visible wear. $30 Black Sabbath - Self Titled - 1972 Australian press Vertigo swirl label in gatefold (847 903 VTY) VG++/VG+.

Cover has some browning, some edgewear and rubs, a little pen mark on front top, wrinkles on back. Still presentable and complete. OIS there too! Gatefold inside clean. The wax is still shiny and has some marks - should power through them. $20 Led Zeppelin - II - AUS 70's Reissue in a gatefold (SD 8236) VG++/VG+. Nice cover with only minor rubbing wear. Disc is shiny and bright with one large scratch but should breeze throuhght it. $20 Led Zeppelin - Houses of the Holy – 1973 gatefold AUS press (SD 7255) VG++/VG++. Lovely gatefold with almost no wear. No wrap-around strip. Disc is shiny, black and clean. $25 Def Leppard – Pyromania – 2018 Limited repress on RED vinyl (602567890720) – Released only in the EU and AUS thru JB Hi Fi exclusive distribution. Already fetching $70 on the s/hand market. This one has a tic on Side 1, Track 1 for about 30 seconds thanks to a scratch right on the lead-in, that then fades to nothing. *May* improve with cleaning, glueing etc... Cover has push-through on top edge, but looks fine in the provided Blake Poly sleeve. $25 $18 Steve Winwood - Arc of a Diver - AUS 1980 pressing (L 37468) VG+/VG++.
