RARE COLLECTION OF OUT-OF-PRINT QUEEN RECORDINGS
FOR SALE TO A SERIOUS COLLECTOR!!!
Ok, here is the deal. I don’t own a record player any longer, and I’m shortly moving to a smaller space. I was once the world’s biggest Queen fan and collected all these records, mostly in the 1980s. This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to own all of these rare, out-of-print Queen items you can’t find anywhere else. I know everyone always says once-in-a-lifetime, but looking at the titles, you’ll see this really is a unique collection of things you’ve probably never seen or heard before, including live performances, interviews, and just some oddball items (I bet you never knew Freddie’s version of Foolin’ Around was in an obscure film!) Also included is Freddie’s first known recording as Larry Lurex, as well as the rare Brian May “Man From Manhattan” single with Eddie Howell. All items are in excellent to mint condition except perhaps some of what I call the “regular albums” – the last grouping below – some of them got played a lot, so I’ll call them good to very good.

Now for the bad news. These are HEAVY! We’re talking about 60 record albums and a bunch of singles, and without packaging, they weigh over 30 pounds.
In order to make sure the records don’t break, they will have to go in four packages wrapped securely in LOTS of bubble wrap protected internally with cardboard, so we are talking $7.00 each package via media mail, including confirmation on each package. That’s $28.00 in shipping. Sorry, but since these are breakable, I want to be sure to package them securely enough that they all get there in one piece, and if I put them in less than 4 packages, I’m afraid that the weight of the records themselves could cause the ones on the bottom to crack.
If you want to see a picture of any particular item, please let me know and I'll take one & send it to you.
So that’s it. You get an incredible collection and I have to say goodbye to some very good friends. I’m sure you’ll enjoy these treasures – happy bidding, and may the 2nd biggest Queen fan (after me!) win!
Payment Details
I take PayPal (preferred) but will also take certified check or money order. Shipment will be on the next business day after payment is received. Shipping is $28.00 (see above) and each package will include delivery confirmation/tracking.
