Daniel A Posted January 15, 2004 Report Share Posted January 15, 2004 (edited) Audiophile International seems to have a pretty good selection of vinyl. http://www.audiophileusa.com/ Does anyone have experience from dealing with them? Are they reliable, and does the gradings of the LPs generally seem fair? Edited January 16, 2004 by Daniel A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z-Man Posted January 16, 2004 Report Share Posted January 16, 2004 I really wish you hadn't brought this site to my attention, Daniel. Unless someone advises otherwise, I'll be spending some serious money here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolff Posted January 16, 2004 Report Share Posted January 16, 2004 Their prices(the ones I looked at) are crazy. You could do much better on Ebay. Ry Cooder/ Jazz(Mobile Fidelity) $500....I'll sell you mine for $250 Jones, Rickie Lee - Rickie Lee Jones Mobile Fidelity $300...I'll sell you mine for $200 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude Posted January 16, 2004 Report Share Posted January 16, 2004 No problem, as prices are in US dollars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmirBagachelles Posted January 16, 2004 Report Share Posted January 16, 2004 I have dealt with them, yes some grossly mispriced things, that can be due to many factors, and we should not be offended. The labels are not making this stuff anymore, and we can always call and offer less. I have found great things there for $8-15. Condition of vinyl is never an issue, but call them on the phone for everything anyway, they will pull the record and go over every zit they see, they are honest people. For value, you might want to stick to $25 and below items, say Japan and European imports and 70s/80s vintage. Anything MFSL seems to get a knee-jerk $50, $100, or $200 price, unfortunately.

Daniel A Posted January 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2004 Thanks guys! As Claude said, buying from the US can sometimes make a better deal than the record store around the block, considering the dollar rate... Anyway, a sealed copy at a decent price wouldn't be a problem, I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
