Make your best offer! A trove of 139 archived CDs, DVDs and cassette tapes could be yours!

Over the years, pipes|drums has amassed a lot of merchandise sent to us by record companies, artists, associations, competitions, filmmakers, and all manner of folks who have made commercial recordings.

They take up a lot of space, which we’re trying to economize. We’ve digitized everything we want, so we thought one of you who has a love of piping and drumming and a penchant for collecting and loves a great deal, would like to place a bid on THE ENTIRE LOT of 127 compact discs, eight cassette tapes, and two DVDs.

Just a small sample of the 139 commercial recordings that could be yours!

Because we did not pay for these products, 100% of the proceeds will be plowed back into the upkeep of nonprofit pipes|drums.

Offers for all 139 items in a single lot start at CAD$300 (GBP£163 / USD$216). Shipping is additional and will be calculated based on your location and how you want the items dispatched. Duties and customs charges, if any, are your responsibility, too.

Many, if not most, of these products are rare collector’s items. No disrespect to any artists; it’s just not realistic that we’ll ever play them in these formats.

The whole lot will be available to the first reader to respond with a commitment to purchase.

Again: the hale loat.

We will not be selling any items individually or in groups.

So we invite you to make your best offer of CAD$300 or more. Deadline for offers is Monday, March 30, 2026.

  Please click here to email us with your CAD$300+ bid to purchase everything. [editor(at)pipesdrums.com] 

Here’s a list of the compact discs, DVDs and cassette tapes in this first sale. (Please note that all recorded media is in fine condition.)
