As mentioned in another thread I've recently decided to sell some of my classical LPs to generate cash for music I will actually listen to. I've recently sold 5 HMV/Columbia/Decca LPs on Ebay and am in the process of shipping them out.
Something I didn't expect:
All the auctions were won by people in China. Out of the approximately 30 bids in total, all were from Chinese bidders. In my item description I clearly stated that any overseas bidders should contact me before bidding to get a postage quote for their country. None of them did which has added to the hassle.
Is this a normal thing to happen? Is the current interest for high quality English classical LPs now purely in the Far East? Have British listeners generally fallen out of love with classical as I have?
Anyone else had a similar experience?
