I've got some I want to offload. Haven't been used in 25 years or more. How can I tell if they are in good condition as I don't have a record player (what I used to call them anyway)? Might they be damaged other than with scratches and are scratches visible to the untrained eye?


Any expert advice out there please?

Most scratches are visible to the eye (depending on your eyes and age of course)

If they are dirty or dusty they can be cleaned (rat records in camberwell has a machine)


How have you stored them, upright or fiat (upright stops warping as flat puts weight on them)


What have you got as I love the warmth of vinyl

    • I’ve been looking at their website from time to time over the last few years and I was sure that at least one loaf - the signature sourdough - is supplied by the BreadBread bakery who are at a lot of markets at weekends and who used to have a small cafe bakery shop in Brixton Market. I used to go there specifically to get their bread.   They are also affiliated with Franco Manca.  That was the first FM, co-founded by Bridget Hugo, who died last year. BreadBread also supplied the bread for the now closed Crooked Well pub restaurant (but now open under a different name - The Kerfield Arms)  in Grove Lane SE5.  Not sure where the pastries come from but it doesn’t seem possible to choose which ones to have delivered.  I do think they chop and change the suppliers from time to time.  I like the look of the (expensive) crullers they sometimes have plus granola, the savoury pastries and expensive bagels.  They frequently have special offers for a first delivery.  40% is the highest discount I’ve seen so far. I too would be worried about a fox being an opportunist.
    • Yes, they sound excellent.
    • Maybe the signor in question spotted some hot jacuzzi action and just had to stop in?
