Join me for a walk around the record fair looking at all the interesting vinyl Albums and LP's. There is something for everyone so don't miss out its on today!
Have not been to one for a few years now. Lucky ive got 4 independent record shops in a 10 mile radius which i use. Knowledgeable and real music lovers.
I don't think you are missing much and I am pleased you have some good local shops within a reasonable distance. Thanks for your comments and good hunting.
Well spotted, I did pass it by and could not even work out what it said. Glad it was a reissue as I would have been sad if I missed an OG. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Good hunting.
They key to going to record shows is to look at the pricing. If its overpriced move to the next table. There's so many dealers at most shows, plenty of deals to be had
The dealer is being a bit optimistic with those prices. I'd pay half of what the asking price is on a few I saw that caught my eye. Time to bargain 😎 !
Thanks for your comment. Its seems a few people agree with you and have left similar comments regarding not bothering with record fairs. I guess the good old days are gone.
for some reason people like to overprice things on record fairs. But everyone nowadays looks it up so who are they trying to fool? Well it's always nice to see some records in the hope i see something i don't know and like.. Nice vid!
You have to feel you're getting a little bit of a bargain at a record fair. Otherwise why go? You only end out with buyer's remorse. I don't mind the vendor getting the money I would spend on postage if I ordered online, and it's great to see the condition of of the discs, but if you buy off reliable sellers online you get to really shop around for the pressing of your choice too. People know vendors need to make a living but why would anyone pay 30% more than it costs to get a NM copy to your door? There's a vendor at a fair I frequent. Always has a great selection, because he never sells. The prices are crazy. Doesn’t make sense ... the only ones buying those types of records know better. There are also some great vendors. They're always busy. They get a fair cut and you go home happy you've found some gems at a reasonable price.
I could not have put this better. Your comments cover all the angles and make complete sense. Records fairs have changed so much and in my opinion they are not as good as they used to be. Thank you for taking the time to put your points across. Good hunting.
It's can vary. As you can imagine its hit and miss but to be honest I have been very lucky and found so many mint records are the boot sales its hard to believe. Its like anything you just need to keep looking and eventually it pays off. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment.
More blue jeans than a Status Quo gig. Where was this? Very average stock and overpriced. Some fairs are better depends on the sellers. I do about 4 or 5 a year that does me. Thry are like record shops. A for Abba, B for Beatles C for Carpenters. Same old same old. Unimaginative. I leave it at that before I go into one 😅😅
whats a hip hop record doing in there , get out . hilarious . you should have bought all those records at car boots and sell em at the record fair for a fiver . record fairs are great , just buy what you like at decent prices
OMG is this what record fairs have turned into? Sellers at record fairs used to be fellow music fans and collectors..these people seem to be only interested in money,what a piss take
