I'd have to relocate it to Lancaster... we haven't had an independent record shop for some 15 years now... and since HMV shut (good riddance)... we're left with er... Sainsbury's :sad:

When I'm a millionaire and able to open a subsidised indy record shop, it'll be called Hear Here, in memory of 'Ear 'Ere... spent most of my pocket money in that shop as a lad :music:

in fact... being a cheeky young bugger, I used to buy one LP, tape it, take it back claiming 'my nanna bought it for me and I've already got it' and exchange it for something else... two for one:thumbsup:
 
Ha Ha, the advert shows the deluded minds of record sellers that somehow think that they are part of the rock music business. Same idiots that looked down their nose at you if you bought a records they did not think was cool.
 
Serves you right for buying that Barry Manilow s***e and stuff.
I was buying it for my sister! Honest!!

Blimey this takes me back. Used to pop into Ear Ere on the way down to the bus station going home from school. The excitement when you heard that they had the latest whatever LP in stock! But the place to go for bargains was the 2nd hand record stall in the market. Got Motorhead Overkill in green vinyl there for a fiver. Probably still in my mum's loft somewhere

Good luck getting any serious bids on that.
The advert doesnt even tell you what is for sale. I guess not the freehold given the low price. However is stock included, how long is the lease? How much are the annual rates and rent? What is the turnover etc etc.
All questions any sensible potential owner would need to know before making a bid.

It doesn't say but yes stock is included. The rest I don't know.

I'm guessing it's a bit of PR and that anyone so inclined will get that info from whoever is properly selling it for them
