Frequently Asked Questions


1. How can I be sure that I am buying from a reputable Company
UK MUSIC AWARDS have been selling Gold and Platinum discs to the Trade and to music fans for over 30 years and have received over a thousand positive feedbacks
 
2.  Is the item the one that was presented to the artist by the BPI and the record industry
  These are Gold & Platinum Disc presentations which  have been made by UK Music Awards for fans and artists who require a momento of the record to display on a wall. They are made with the original vinyl and are mostly limited to 5. They are not an award that was presented to the artist by the BPI(British phonographic industry) 

3. Do you use original records and covers 
 We  only use original vinyl and original LP and 7" covers. With songsheets that are badly marked we may use an enhanced image. We try to obtain  the best condition of records for coating

4. Will these items increase in value
Unlike most gold and platinum discs that  are sold on the internet,our discs are sold with the original vinyl,
and as the prices of original vinyl increases so should our discs  


5.  Do you have a shop that I can view 
We closed our high street music  shops over 10 years ago and now do not have a convenient place to view
