Hi, I am Mark, the owner of Audio Recycle.
Our company has been professionally buying 2nd hand vinyl records and high-end audio equipment in Victoria, Queensland, New South Wales and around Australia for many years and we enjoy what we do immensely.
Has the time come to say goodbye to a collection that you have built with love and care? Or are you helping a friend? Are you wondering "Where do I sell my vinyl records?" or "where to sell audio equipment"?
Audio Recycle is well placed to assist. Every year we help tens of thousands of records find their way back to music lovers through our Melbourne and Brisbane record stores called Dutch Vinyl.
We also purchase high quality audio equipment including turntables, amplifiers and speakers.
How we work?
Please get in touch with us when you are ready to sell.
We would like to learn the following about your records:
- The number of records in your collection
- The types of music / genres
- A sample of the artists / bands
- The quality of the records and sleeves
Next we can arrange to inspect and value your collection.
We will give a fair and competitive offer to buy your collection. You can sell your records for cash or, if you prefer, we can pay via bank transfer or Paypal.
No collection is too large or too small.
Music genres we buy
We mostly buy 12" LP’s. We also look for 7" records but we are very selective with these.
Genres we looks for include:
- Rock & Pop – from the 50s onwards. Progressive, Psych, Hard rock, Metal, Alternative, New wave, Indie, Electronic and Folk.
- Jazz & Blues – we love it
- Soul, Funk, R&B and Disco
- Hip Hop / Rap – old school to now
- Reggae – Island funk, Ska, Calypso
- World Music & Latin – South American, Salsa, Latin Funk & Jazz, Cuban, Spanish and French.
- Classical – though we are very selective
What we don't buy?
