will you not get in trouble for sending cash in the mail and giving out your postal address so the things can be sent ...?

I'm sorry but if someone does this for you they are pretty stupid. As it is ebay is pretty insecure.

I don't see why you can't do it yourself.

Ok this is whats goin on, my parents will get pissed if they find out Im buyin stuff online cause of what happened last time (not getting into it). I cant get one myself cause I dont add up to the requirements to get one and my parents wont let me. I dont want them to take internet privleges away and yell at me endlessly like they would do. I do however have some cash that they dont know about and I can send it without them knowing and they are never home practically now cause they go to work so they wont know about the package when it comes. If they do find out about it I can say an online friend did an album swap with me (Ive done it before and they didnt care). They just dont want me spending my money online thats all. I swear this is the only time and so far the bid is only $15 8O

My first impulse was to reach out and help you. I agree with RichardBenson. And Willie Nelson who said "LIfe's a b***h and then you die."

:lol: That's very funny. Don't you have a friend or neighbor or grandparent that can help you? Give them the money and let them order it and have it delivered to their address. Easy as 123.

Well.. no I dont.. I wish I did though. Actually I have these grandparents who live near me and they dont know anything about computers and if I told them they would just tell my parents anyway.

Why can't you just go to your parents and politely and truthfully tell them how important these albums or vinyls are to you. Are your parents some kind of monsters or something? Did you rip them off really bad or put them in credit card debt with your on line buying? I mean, maybe this is some kind of karmic learning lesson for you. I can't interfere with karma, even if I wanted to.

. . .

Oh, what the heck. I'll ask anyway.

Why do you want the vinyls in the first place?

Now for my advice:

Are there any stores around that sell vinyls? If so, then I'd suggest going to the store instead of buying the rare ones. Why? Because your parents won't get horribly mad at you, that's why. It sounds like something you can live without of anyway. Rarity has nothing to do with how much use it gets out of it anyhow (Unless your planning to re-sell it).
