This is the discography of Stiff Records' single releases in the United Kingdom with a prefix catalogue number of BUY, and album releases with a prefix catalogue number of SEEZ. It excludes non-BUY singles catalogue numbers such as DAMNED 1 ("Stretcher Case Baby" by The Damned), DEV 1 ("Jocko Homo" by Devo) and NY 7 ("Fairytale of New York" by The Pogues and Kirsty MacColl) and non-SEEZ album catalogue numbers such as FIST 1 (Hits Greatest Stiffs), GET 1 (Live Stiffs Live), and LENE 1 (Lene Lovich Speaks by Lene Lovich).

Just under a quarter of all BUY singles releases charted in the UK Singles Chart and 21 of these have gone on to receive either a silver or gold disc from the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). Over one third of all SEEZ albums releases charted in the UK Albums Chart and 13 of these have gone on to receive either a silver, gold or platinum disc from the BPI.

Damned Damned Damned (SEEZ 1) by The Damned was the first full-length album released by a UK punk group and "New Rose" (BUY 6) was the first single by a UK punk group.[1] [2] Other artists to have released singles or albums on BUY or SEEZ catalogue numbers include Elvis Costello, Madness, Ian Dury, Motörhead, Nick Lowe, Jona Lewie, Tracey Ullman, Desmond Dekker, Alvin Stardust, Kirsty MacColl and The Pogues.
