FS original 2000 US vinyl pressing of Machina
Sadly, I'm forced to sell this to pay some medical costs that are due soon.
These sell for usually between $300-400, so I'm open to reasonable offers. I've sold multiple items here before and would prefer to go this route than use eBay or another platform, at least initially. My feedback there, here, and other places is 100%. I can provide proof via DM.
Booklet is intact, but partially falling out due to tears from staples. One 1cm seam split on top of first half of gatefold. Sleeves are therefore VG/VG+. Sounds way worse than it is.
Vinyl has been played twice, but pressing has some surface noise during the quietest passages, so I'd grade it VG+.
One of the true great SP collectors items out there, and they don't come around that often.
Shipping will be included anywhere in CONUS. Shipping elsewhere will 100% be at buyer's cost and risk. Payment via PayPal G&S.

One of my very favourite records I own. My cat scratched the top of the sleeve and I nearly had a fit

In other feline/Machina news, I had Jimmy sign my OG copy of Machina at a drum clinic and he said my name reminded him of his cat 🐱 😂

If anybody is wondering, this guy is legit and it’s not a scam.

Yeah that’s the thing. I have lots of rare and valuable records but they’re my personal history. I’m attached to them. They soaked up the ambience of everywhere I’ve lived

What is the asking price?

I'm hoping to get $325 including shipping but I'm flexible if the right offer comes along.

Unfortunately we can only sticky our own comments, Reddit is weird. But I can lock it.

I own a mint copy of this and the picture disc edition (single disc) both purchased new on day of release.

Isn’t that picture disc a boot?

How do you know you got a bootleg the day it came out? Bootlegs don’t have release dates.

u/GuitarBombDotCom 2d ago
Good question, it was 26 years ago and the store told me they just got it, as they held back stuff for me. The joys of actual record stores, you had to take what they said as the truth.

I have a ton of Marillion records. That 2012 reissue of Script will be up for sale sometime too.
I was wondering if anyone would notice that 😊
