Discrepancy Records does put up some well-priced sales items - but I have noticed their secondhand stuff is very overpriced - $45 - $55 for Steve Forbert LPs....dreaming!

 

Just closing the loop on this one.
The seller is now seemingly back up and running and fulfilling orders that are sent quickly and well-packaged.
But the prices are back up where you'd expect so there's nothing to see here.
I assume those low prices were a second error that this time a couple of us benefited from.

Has anyone been record shopping in Rome by any chance? I found the very decent Rock Bottom records in Florence last year but didn't really find any in Rome, I'm sure there must be some!

 

Dutch Vinyl have a nice little selection of Speakers Corner vinyl at non-exorbitant prices. Here's an example:

Albert King


Born Under A Bad Sign (LP)

$65

Albert King – Born Under A Bad Sign (Speakers Corner)

Speakers Corner

I recently bought the Speakers Corner pressing of my current avatar and it's blowing my socks right off. Everything about it is premium. The hype sticker states "This LP is an entirely analogue production. Made from the original, analogue master tapes. Only the best mastering studios worldwide. Pure Analogue audiophile mastering" - no ambiguity there.

Here's what discogs thinks: Albert King - Born Under A Bad Sign

 

Will do.... although at least you have until March next year. You still could theoretically cancel and renew taking you up to next May. But you do have to cancel first I think. And do the math to see if it's worth bothering for a couple of months.

 

Quality Records also have a good selection of Speakers Corner currently in-stock. Dutch Vinyl used to be my go-to for both Speakers Corner and Record Sleeves - alas it seems both items are relatively scarce there at the moment. DV used to have page after page of Speakers Corner in stock - now its less than one page. That being said, the Albert King record is $4 cheaper at Dutch Vinyl than Quality Records - although Quality Records have a wider selection in stock.

Here is the Quality Records selection:
Audiophile Pressings Speakers Corner Records

Of those in stock - I recommend the Nina Simone, Doobie Brothers and especially Toto IV...
Toto: IV

 

Nice, thanks.
