An update. I feel so fortunate. Back at home with the family, had a very long and frank discussion with Mrs Rents. She'll continue supporting me as long as I don't drink, which is obviously fair enoug

Cheers I'll have a look at this. I was thinking the bloke will just rip us off but I don't actually care. If I price them all up on that discogs so I've got some idea if he's just totally taking the piss, after that he can bend me over and take liberties as he pleases. 

I sort of know him as he used to DJ in the Tanners about 20 years ago when I was a regular when my mate lived round the corner from there. I don’t think he’s the type to rip people off. Genuine vinyl lover. He got a load of records from the relatives of a fella that passed away a while back. He took fucking ages sorting them and assessing the condition etc. I would definitely still use discogs as a guide price though (although sometimes on there people charge outrageous amounts for rare stuff).

Discogs is a free for all in a way. Most are just chancing their arm. I’m sat on a fuckin fortune according to them; but if a dude such as you’re describing came round to value it I’d be lucky to get half what various things are being priced at on that fuckin robbers coven. Second hand prices have predictably rocketed for buyers but not for private sellers since lockdown 🫤

List what you have on here please, may be some I would like for the jukey, may not as well of course.

 

7 inch:

 

Stop me if you think you've heard this one before / Pretty girls make graves

 

Panic / vicar in a tutu

 

William it was really nothing / please please please let me get what I want

 

The Boy with the thorn in his side / Asleep

 

Last night I dreamt that somebody loved me / Rusholme Ruffians

 

Heaven knows I'm miserable now /Suffer little children

 

Hand in Glove / Handsome Devil

 

Sheila Take A Bow / Is it really so strange

 

And something called The Smiths Help I need Somebody where the name of the band on the actual vinyl is The Patels. Uh oh Morrissey, early warning signs. 

 

12 inch:

 

I started something I couldn't finish /pretty girls make graves / some girls are bigger than others

 

White vinyl: Sheila take a bow / is it really so strange / sweet and tender hooligan 

 

Blue clear vinyl: There's a light that never goes out / the queen is dead

 

Orange clear vinyl: Some girls are bigger than others / frankly Mr shankly / the draize train 

 

Clear vinyl: Cemetery gates / golden lights

 

Still ill / reel around the fountain / please, please, please... 

 

Green tie dye looking vinyl: Shoplifters of the world unite / half a person / london

Anything not Smiths (apart from hits compilations) wouldn't want the jukey to spontaneously combust ? PL will bite though I reckon.

 

There's a numbered Beatles White Album there. Number 128,252. Complete with lyric sheet and pictures of the band.

Yikes, that may be worth a pretty penny.

We sang that "Just One Person" at middle school. Knowingly getting a bunch of already embarrassed tweenagers to sing about believing "hard enough and long enough" - being a teacher must be a lark sometimes. :lol:

There's one of those for sale on Ebay for 8 grand.

 

:lol:

 

I should look into this. The top of the back sleeve has come away, I think the glue has just failed, but I know this one plays fine.

That's it I'm afraid. The two on the right must have been my sister's and I can't recommend either of the two on the left. :lol:

Well worth looking into IMO. The first pressing are worth the most.

Aye, there's a few things for sale on eBay for prices which are never going to sell in a million years. :lol: Unrealistic ambitions to put it mildly.
