Decade crate

90s vinyl records UK

The nineties were the decade vinyl nearly disappeared — CDs took over, so many albums had tiny vinyl pressings that are now genuinely scarce. There are 704 nineties records in stock right now, from Britpop and indie to dance 12-inches and hip-hop. Because every item is an individual second-hand copy, the record photographed is the exact one that arrives.

Each copy is cleaned, inspected and graded by hand before listing, with the vinyl and sleeve graded separately and catalogue or matrix details included where they help identify the pressing. Orders are packed in rigid mailers, sent tracked from Mansfield, and covered by a 60-day returns promise. UK orders over £50 qualify for free postage, so it is worth combining a few records into one parcel.

Buying 1990s vinyl second-hand

Because nineties vinyl pressings were small, original copies of big albums can be surprisingly hard to find — and the modern reissue is often the only alternative at several times the price. Dance and club 12-inches from the decade are still excellent value, often near-mint because they lived in a DJ's record box rather than next to a radiogram.

90s vinyl FAQs

Why are some 90s records hard to find on vinyl?
CDs dominated the nineties, so many albums had very small vinyl pressings. Original copies are genuinely scarce, which is why they sell quickly when they come into stock.
How is the condition of a second-hand 90s record graded?
Every copy is inspected and graded by hand — vinyl and sleeve separately. VG+ usually means a clean-playing copy with light wear; VG allows more visible use but should still play through.
Can I combine postage on several 90s records?
Yes — postage is worked out on the weight of one parcel and you pick the courier at checkout, so several records in one order keeps the per-record cost down. UK orders over £50 get free postage.
What if the record isn't as described?
Every record is covered by a 60-day returns promise — if a copy is not as described, you can return it for a full refund.
