Be sure to check out my Discogs listings for CDs not listed here. All titles are 15% off the listed price if you purchase directly from me. You need to agree to buy the items through discogs to reserve the item, but do not pay the invoice there – I will invoice you directly with the discounted price.
Take 10% off all listed items below, or free shipping on purchases of $20 or more – whichever is the higher discount. Any items purchased from this list can be held through the next sale on 4/6 and combined in the same package for shipping. Discount will be calculated when invoiced.
A quick note on the sale: most all of the items from this collection have been stored in a basement at one time or another. Many of the covers retain a slightly musty smell. I have wiped down all sleeves and inners with alcohol and made sure that any trace of mildew or mold has been neutralized. If you are incredibly sensitive to smell, take note, otherwise you will not likely notice once it is in a sleeve.
