Just found a massive box full of vinyl that an old mate gave me to look after when he went to university. Loads of old punk, hardcore, metal and indie stuff, going to have a look through it this week….the shit you find when clearing out eh?
Being as that was 18 years ago, and I haven't seen him for 15 years, does that make them mine by proxy?
Holy cow - I might buy some stuff mate… Seriously: PM me a list will ya
-
As soon as I've gone through it, I'll send you a list mate. It's a weird mix, everything from Black Flag to the Star Wars sound track album :o
-
Absolutely…... :-\
But, of course if that fails I will sell them before Mini throws them in the bin. I have no idea if they're worth a fortune or 10p to be honest. Guys like you and Rocket are the experts, so I'll call on you guys for help.

First record in the box "Songs About Fucking" by Big Black ???
Followed by a pile of Faith No More albums, singles and picture discs.

Score !!!!!!! Cheers Rocket.

Actually found some good stuff, just doing my own little research. Some of the Faith No More stuff is quite pricey, really old stuff, picture discs, first pressings, promo 12" singles etc… Plus an Ella Fitzgerald sings Cole Porter album, and a Stan Tracey Quartet album, and a rare complete misprinted sleeve version on "Band On The Run" complete with posters etc..
According to ebay, there could be a new pair of Whites in this for me

i think there are a few reasons why the measurements won't match up perfectly:
1. small label with handcrafted goods tend to have small differences in sizes in the same batch of an item.
2. they use different measuring techniques, check the way the vendor measures items with the way IHUK measures
3. the measurements published are a average & so no pair is really going to match up to it.i would go to the respective website, & see how the item in question is measured. i would then use the same method to measure my best fitting garment & compare to decide what i can/can not fit into.
hope this information is helpful & hasn't thrown you off the path
all the best,
monday on a Sunday

have to love this place. thanks for responding dougie
-
no problem, well actually f^ck you very much. nothing personal i do understand how these measurements can get folks all crazy like & coupled with the amount the goods cost a bit of anxiety is understandable.
-
True, and nobody seems to measure exactly the same way, making comparisons across sites basically impossible. Add to that the lack of availability that means the 97% of us outside a couple of major cities can't try pairs on before buying, and you have a recipe for serious stress.
