anniemouse Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 I am searching the online sties for copies of Led Zeppelin II onwards. Any tips about getting decent copies at reasonable prices. Looking at the plum label versions I suspect they are way out of my price range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FavouriteTipple Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 I can't see any reason not to recommend the 2014 reissue LP pressing, and it's less than £20 in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anniemouse Posted May 26, 2016 Author Share Posted May 26, 2016 I think the reason why I am in two minds about vinyl purchases is that I actually like the idea of owning an older pressing. Not for investment purposes though. It is quite a shock seeing the prices of the plum labels though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anniemouse Posted May 30, 2016 Author Share Posted May 30, 2016 Pb Is this just too damaged for the price. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Led-Zeppelin-II-Gatefold-LP-Vinyl-1972-Atlantic-K40037-matrix-A1-/231959090724?hash=item3601d6d624:g:MSoAAOSwoJZXSWCE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pb! Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 I would pass on this, especially because of the postage cost to the USA. If you just want to listen it's probably OK but if you were more interested in a display piece you should pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anniemouse Posted May 30, 2016 Author Share Posted May 30, 2016 Thank I am in the UK though. So back to the research. I do fancy a plum label so I need to be patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anniemouse Posted June 16, 2016 Author Share Posted June 16, 2016 Right got a few Zeppelin LP's on new vinyl but got LZ II off Ebay. Really decent cover and sleeve and disc loos clean as well. Orange and green label and a K400037-A and a mark as the matrix number. Also got some old vinyl Robert Plant LP's but I suspect they don't have the collectable mystique.

anniemouse Posted June 18, 2016 Author Share Posted June 18, 2016 Anyone know much about this. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/262477384123?dest=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fitm%2F262477384123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pb! Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 That is right around the going rate; it's not particularly rare so you probably can find one 5 to 10 pounds cheaper. Like a lot of bootlegs, prices can fluctuate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anniemouse Posted June 19, 2016 Author Share Posted June 19, 2016 I was wondering what gig it was from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anniemouse Posted June 21, 2016 Author Share Posted June 21, 2016 Odd thing happened yesterday. I was out for lunch with a mate and although record stores hit the dust many years ago in my local area we came across one of those indoor markets (Official and rather high end products for the most part). One appeared to be selling cd's and then my mate pointed at a box full of vinyl. After looking though it fell of everything from Janis Joplin to The Beatles I purchased a brand new copy of Houses of the Holy. Although he had around 30 LP's he had LZ II and LZ IV as well. So someone has hired an official space on the market instead of renting a shop and all the usual expenses that entails. I know some of you have access to some great independent retailers but for me I was so thrilled to just look through vinyl like I did in my teens.

I'm trying to get things I missed getting in the past. For some reason I never got Unledded on vinyl so I bid 53 dollars on ebay for a used one over the weekend but lost, immediately afterward I saw a brand new one for 60 dollars so I swooped up on it, it's an import though.

anniemouse Posted July 2, 2016 Author Share Posted July 2, 2016 Still getting hold of some interesting vinyl. Ordered some Zep on 180 g vinyl and have tracked down some 45's from Roberts solo career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvlz2 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Comparing Discogs and Ebay, ebay seems to be more of a simpler way of buying, Discogs has so many different different things listed about things that can go wrong with an order its kind of a turn off.

luvlz2 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Certain Robert Plant vinyls like Dreamland and Mighty Rearranger go for high dollar amounts on ebay. I guess vinyls of Dreamland were limited to 2,000 copies, still, the prices being asked are quite high, too much imo. Fate of Nations vinyls start at around $78 last I looked. If you didn't get any of these vinyls when they first hit shelves you are going to pay good dollar for them. From the prices I seen I'm talking Dreamland and Mighty Rearranger more than Fate of Nations. Still, $78 is still a good dollar amount for Fate of Nations but hey if you really want one... Coverdale Page vinyls start at around $62, but I have seen them go for a little less on ebay auctions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
