vinyl too big

[beastieboysbaby]

i just got this b side and bullshit vinyl in from ebay and one of the records fits my record player perfectly but the C & D one doesn't fit ! arent' they supposed to be the same size ?


i dont know what to do :(

hneh? is the hole too big? or the outside of the record?

[beastieboysbaby]

one side of the record is to big , the outside of it i guess .

the sides arent even ..

[Dorothy Wood]

that seems crazy. like it's not round?

I'd have to see a picture.

what kind of record player do you have? if it has a lid, would it work if you kept it open? if not, is it hitting the arm with the needle and unable to turn? records are often bigger than the turn table itself...but if it's so big it won't turn, I have no idea.

i think she has a two-record set and the c and d record is the one not working

but i still dont know why that would be

I'm assuming that the record is slightly too large to fit on your platter and the outside edge hits something?

OK heres what you gotta do. Get a pair of scissors, and hold the record up on its edge. Use one of the scissor's blades to shave around the outside edge of the vinyl, all the way around. just keep rotating the record and shaving the edge off until its the same size as the other one.

I had to do that with a couple of my records.

Vinyl's where it's at, just buy official released vinyl next time.
