Hello and welcome to my auctions!

Please take a moment to read the whole description as it contains vital information about the item and the terms of the auction - thanks.

All these records are from my personal collection that I have decided to sell to raise a deposit for a house

I have tried hard to accurately describe each record but sometimes, rarely, my description may not match the buyers expectations, so please ask any questions before bidding. If anything, I under describe them to ensure complete satisfaction. If you are not entirely happy, please contact me so that we can work things out.

I am not a record dealer, just a private collector.

The item:

Cover has some minor storage wear (see pics).

Inner sleeve is present and intact.

Vinyl is in excellent condition.  It is nice and shiny with some minor surface marks and scratches. The record plays with some very minor pops and clicks which are mostly confined to the dead wax. A nice clean example that sounds great!

Condition: (see grading at the bottom of the listing) VINYL/COVER:

EX/EX

The vinyl may benefit from a professional clean.

Postage & Packing:

I send all my parcels second class signed for to ensure they reach their destination. This provides security for you and me.

I do combine postage for multiple wins.  You will pay no more than the quoted shipping price for up to 5 records, depending on weight etc. (in the same package) and providing the weight is below 2kg's. This rule applies to international buyers too.

International buyers: I am more than happy to ship to you and will calculate the exact cost on completion of auction. The £22.00 is a generic figure as this is what it costs in general to send international tracked. It will vary depending on your location.

Returns:

If you are not completely satisfied, I will accept the item back but the buyer will pay for the postage (non-refundable).

Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide:

MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or unplayed should be Mint.

NEAR MINT: a record that appears new but is known to have been played because the label has light spindle marks or because it has come from a previous owner and is assumed to have been played by them.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.

FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.

POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler."
