Only ships to UK

I saw someone put up all 3 LPs the other night but they all only shipped to the UK.

Unwrapped vinyl, never been played. Probably never going to be played. A product that will never be used for it's intended purpose, but will be bought and sold for many times its value nontheless. Is the container more valuable than what it contains? Is it just a fetish object?

It'll make someone happy, no doubt, but this is why I'll never be and will never understand record collecting.

There is no way I would not play this if managed to get hold of it. It would be criminal not to.

"IF YOU ARE AN INTERNATIONAL BUYER AND WISH TO BID, PLEASE MESSAGE ME SO THAT I CAN ALLOW YOU TO BID (It won't let me change the shipping options).

INTERNATIONAL BUYERS WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR SHIPPING (of their choice)."

This is stated at the bottom

It's not brand spanking new. There is very slight wear around the corners. Other than that it's in perfect condish. Vinyl is unplayed. Very nice copy

I would play the hell out of it.
Now, where is my piggy bank...

lol yeah, figured I may as well keep a hold of my other copy which I play and get rid of this one for some extra £'s rather than it just sitting there not fulfilling its purpose

Yeah, not a bad option, it's a beautiful thing and will make someone very happy.
Plus, it must be worth a bob or two - always nice!

I just got outbid at 80 yesterday. Wishful thinking I s'pose!

I play mine every so often, it's just such a beautiful package. The Geogaddi gate fold in general is such a heavy package. The binding is very thin, so it is vulnerable to ripping. That's why you always see a lot of thrashed ones on ebay, you can tell they were played a lot.

Yeah it is surprisingly delicate the Geogaddi packaging. Absolutely awesome though. That's why I've always kept two copies, wanted to keep one in nice condition just to look at

My thoughts exactly. I love collecting records but I cannot understand the logic in not even playing them. I mean, it's one thing if it's some ultra-rare acetate but I mean..if you love a band, and their music, and you spend many many dollars on their records..FFS (for fuck sakes), play the thing!

has anyone on here actually ever been on discogs because there are plenty of mint condition sleeve/media geogaddis available all the time?

Yeah, get ready to fork out almost $255-$279 for a sealed copy.
