Frequently Asked Questions
Have a question about buying or selling vinyl in Hamilton?
Here are some quick answers.
Do you buy used vinyl records?
TRON Records may purchase selected vinyl collections in Hamilton depending on genre, title, and overall condition.
As every collection is different, we are only able to assess records in person.
If you are interested in selling, please bring your records directly to our Frankton store during opening hours.
We are open daily (except Christmas Day).
Do you ship within New Zealand and internationally?
Yes. We offer NZ-wide and international shipping with tracking available via NZ Post. Records are carefully packed to protect sleeves and corners during transit. Please see "Shipping and Delivery" page for more detail.
How do you grade your records?
Many of our records are 50–60 years old and are carefully ultrasonically cleaned and visually inspected before grading.
Due to the age of vintage vinyl, some signs of wear or playback-related characteristics may occur.
We do not play-test every record but apply a consistent in-store visual grading standard.
Our grading scale includes Mint, Near Mint, VG+, VG, and Good.
Because vintage records naturally vary, we are unable to accept returns based solely on playback preference or sound-related expectations.
Where is TRON Records located?
We are located in Frankton, Hamilton, New Zealand. You can visit us in-store or browse our online collection anytime.
What makes TRON Records different?
TRON Records specialises in curated 60s–80s original pressings, carefully selected for collectors and music enthusiasts.
Each record carries history and character, and we focus on authenticity, condition, and music culture rather than mass-market reissues.
