Records Wanted Still

Despite the tens of thousands of records that we already own, we wouldn’t be true collectors if we didn’t continue to hunt and to hone our collections. We’re still trying to find covers that have eluded and haunted us since we first discovered their existence in others possession. Like the ones that get scooped up right in front of you at a flea market or the ones that are framed behind the record store counter and say “not for sale”. Anyway, if you happen to have any of the records that we’ve tagged “wanted,” we’d be thrilled to buy them from you. Likewise, if you see any records that you like here, let us know and if we have, or find, a second copy, we’ll happily sell or trade them to you.   Contact me at: matthew@grandcentralmarketing.com

    yes..the fine feeling of seeing one of those elusive gems, being snagged right beside you at a flea market, or record show, or record shop, thrift store..whatever..it can be heartbreaking ;)

    WHERE do we find the records that you mentioned ‘TAGGED / WANTED’ Matthew? This lower tri-state area is a bastion of vinyl gold with the military bases, yard sales, estate sales, flea markets and Goodwill stores!

    I have the record “Music For Hangovers” from 1963 and it is still in perfect condition, with the insert/card also perfect. I would like to sell it. Could someone get back to me on my email and let me know if the site wants it, or even an individual. Thanks in advance.:)
