Used vinyl

Second hand vinyl records UK

Browse 8,064 pre-owned records in stock, from everyday favourites and affordable collection-fillers to unusual pressings and harder-to-find titles. The catalogue covers LPs, 12-inch releases and 7-inch singles across decades and genres, with new stock added as collections arrive. Each listing represents the actual copy for sale, so its photographs, format, catalogue details and notes are more useful than a generic stock image. Use the full shop filters when you want to narrow the selection by price, genre, decade or condition.

Every record is inspected and graded by hand before it goes online. We assess the vinyl and sleeve, clean records where needed, and note visible wear or pressing details that may matter to a buyer. VG+ generally means a well-kept copy with light signs of use; VG allows more noticeable wear but should still play through. Check the individual listing for the exact grade and photos, or use our grading guide for the full definitions. Orders leave our Mansfield base in rigid record mailers with tracked delivery and 60-day returns if a copy is not as described.

Buying used vinyl with confidence

Buying second hand means the condition matters as much as the pressing. We list the sleeve grade and the vinyl grade separately, note matrix codes where they help identify a pressing, and flag extras like printed inners, lyric booklets and posters.

Prices start under £5 for play-worn bargains and run up to sought-after first pressings. Combined postage means building a stack costs 50p a record after the first.

Are your second hand vinyl records checked before sale?
Yes. Every used record is cleaned where needed, played or visually inspected, and graded by hand using the Goldmine standard for both sleeve and vinyl.
What does each grade mean?

You choose the courier at checkout and postage is priced by parcel weight — UK tracked starts at £3.15 for a single record, packed in rigid mailers with stiffeners.

How often does new second hand stock arrive?
