Hi. I hope you enjoy your item(s). I am an independent one-person operation and live or die by feedback. Please, when you receive one of my items, check it is what I’ve said it is in terms of quality/condition. If you have any cause for complaint whatsoever then please contact me immediately so I can resolve any issue you have fairly and quickly. I am very reasonable and unafraid of making financial compensation.  IF you are unhappy with any item I have sent then please DO NOT keep this to yourself and then months later post a neutral or negative comment. Why would anyone do that? TELL ME IMMEDIATELY IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM! AND YES…I COMBINE POST AND WILL CHECK WITH YOU WHETHER THE TOTAL COST IS OK.

NOTE THAT FOR ALL INTERNATIONAL ORDERS I GO THROUGH GSP (THEY SET THE POSTAGE RATE SO CHECK BEFORE YOU BUY/BID) AND THEY SEND THE INVOICE. DO NOT BID unless you are prepared to pay their shipping charges. I am unable to combine postage on international sales. I politely request that you do not ask. Thank you. 

All items I sell have been thoroughly checked and I list any fault found. But I do make mistakes. I am human.

GRADING FOR VINYL RECORDS

Only some of the records, tapes or CD’s have been play tested (unless stated otherwise) …I would spend my life playing and never get around to listing. I use the standard criteria for vinyl, insert and cover quality and will individually state that. E.g. M = MINT, NM = NEAR MINT, EX = EXCELLENT, VG = VERY GOOD. See grading below! However, I try to avoid for the best part any vinyl/CD’s below that standard. I also try to err on the negative side when grading and many customers have commented as to how their records were better than expected.

See all previous feedback.
Records/CD’s are graded to UK record collector standard and are as follows. A plus (+) or – (minus) may be used to indicate that the record is just shy of the next grading tier.   
MINT (M)   
Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly, never been played, possibly even still sealed. Will only be used if I can guarantee the record is unplayed.
NEAR MINT (NM)  
/INNER: Only the slightest of wear. There will be no bends, folds, seam splits, cut outs, holes or similar defects.   
VINYL: Again, only the slightest of wear for example a couple of ultra-light sleeve removal scuffs. The playing surface will not have any marks or scratches and the label will be bright and clean with only light spidering at the very most.   
SOUND: There should be almost no loss of audio quality, the only audible flaws should be some light static in between tracks and occasionally in very quiet passages. Overall will sound bright, crisp and clean.   
EXCELLENT (EX)  
COVER/INNER: There will be some light age related wear this is normally in the form of a few light creases around the spine and the beginning of some light ring wear. The sleeve will be nice and solid with a fully legible spine.   
VINYL: The playing surface will have a couple of very light marks or scratches that are superficial flaws and will not affect the sound quality. Labels will be bright and clean but may have some light wear around the spindle hole.   
SOUND: Some slight loss of audio quality is to be expected with the occasional light click (no pops). Some light surface noise may be heard in the quietest parts of the record. 
VERY GOOD (VG)
