Pearl Jam Vinyl

Sat August 31, 2013 4:29 pm

Just came across a bunch of it cleaning out our basement today. Is this stuff worth much? Have Ten through Binaural and some Xmas singles. Figured I can look at ebay, but thought I would check in with the experts.

I'm guessing Binaural is the treasure, as I can't find it anywhere on ebay. No Code for like $200? Damn. Going to have to keep my wife off ebay for the next week. ;)

Stored vertical?

Nope. Horizontally. That can't be good huh.
All the pieces there, though. I got into vinyl for about a month in '03 (?). Then they were shelved.

Welp, your value may have just dropped a bit. How warped are they?

I'm no vinyl connoisseur, obviously. I can tell that they are not perfectly flat, that much is for sure. Some (No Code) look better than others (Yield).

The problem is if they're too warped the needle can jump when you're playing them.

If it looks like this on the turntable, it's not good.

Ha. Wow. I don't believe any of them are that bad. I will have to dig up the turn table and see. Thanks for the help, btw.

i've also had warped vinyls speed up and down when played.

On that one in the video it came in the mail like that, brand new. If you could get the needle to rest at the beginning of the first song it would jump a few grooves within a second or two. Fortunately Saddle Creek has great customer service and when I emailed them with this video they immediately sent a new one.

Unlike Ten Club that wouldn't send me a new copy of Ukulele Songs without first mailing the defective copy back. I never did because I didn't have time to get to the post office and then forgot about it.

No, send me the Binaural. I'll dispose of it in an environmentally conscious manner.
