What to do with old LPs?
As you know, we're moving house Friday. Clearing out the garage today I've come across my (large) box of old records, starting with the first LP I bought in 1974, Sheer Heart Attack. I can remember buying it, I was that excited
 And so they go on, lots of really great stuff like Jefferson Airplane/Starship, Bowie, Queen, Simple Minds, U2, Pink Floyd, Clash, Boston, Meat Loaf (the record is prolly worn out, I played it that much).All of them were fantastic, I didn't buy crap. Such a trip down memory lane. But they are so heavy and take up so much space, plus I don't have a turntable, I don't know what to do with them. Should I take them to the tip tomorrow? Sell them on a boot sale? Or what? |

Re: What to do with old LPs?
They make great frisbees!
I met a guy once whose hobby it is to find extremely rare LP's and singles and cut the middle out to make them into clocks etc. Some of the rare vinyl were collectors items and he basically butchered them....saw him with a stall at the Chrizzy market in Manchester one year selling them. |

Re: What to do with old LPs?
For the love of christ dont take them to the tip... please...
Around here now and again they have the odd record fair, plenty of Vinyl still changes hands that way, I'd see if you can find one or somebody local that will buy them off you. They might not be worth much, but you might get a few quid for them.
