PLEASE TAKE SOME TIME TO READ THE MESSAGES BELOW CONCERNING POSTAGE AND GRADING OF ITEMS IF YOU HAVE NOT BOUGHT FROM ME BEFORE.

THE RECORDS AND CDs I SELL ARE FROM MY OWN COLLECTION, USUALLY SPARE COPIES OR RECORDS THAT I JUST WANT TO PASS ON TO OTHER COLLECTORS.  I DO NOT OPERATE A BUSINESS, I FINANCE OTHER PURCHASES WITH SALES I MAKE HERE! I ONLY SELL RECORDS I'D BE HAPPY TO PLAY ON MY OWN TURNTABLE. IF A RECORD FALLS SHORT OF THE EXCELLENT / VERY GOOD  OR GOOD GRADES [THE VAST MAJORITY WILL BE IN THE VERY GOOD GRADE], I WILL CLEARLY STATE IT. ANY DEFECTS WILL BE HIGHLIGHTED IN THE DESCRIPTION. HOWEVER, I AM HUMAN AND I DO MAKE MISTAKES, SO IF YOUR RECORD DOES NOT MEET UP TO THE DESCRIPTION I HAVE GIVEN, PLEASE EMAIL ME TO SORT IT OUT...A SOLUTION IS ALWAYS FINDABLE :)

                        POSTAGE
THE IRISH POSTAL SERVICE, AN POST, INCREASED THEIR CHARGES YET AGAIN IN JULY 2014. THE PRICE HIKES WERE SIGNIFICANT, AND EVEN DOMESTIC POSTAGE COSTS ARE NOW OUTRAGEOUS ONCE THEY GO OVER 100g. 

IF ANY ITEM OR COMBINATION OF ITEMS IN A PACKAGE REACHES A VALUE OF €25 OR MORE THEN PLEASE WAIT FOR INVOICE BEFORE PAYING THESE PACKAGES OVER €25 HAVE TO BE SENT REGISTERED POST, WHICH COSTS AN AVERAGE OF €6.50 EXTRA ON TOP OF NORMAL POSTAGE.  * THIS EXTRA CHARGE DOES NOT SHOW UP ON THE POSTAGE STAMP, IT IS A FEE I HAVE TO PAY IN THE POST OFFICE IN ORDER TO REGISTER THE PACKAGE AND RECEIVE A TRACKING NUMBER.

COMBINED POSTAGE ALWAYS AVAILABLE FOR MULTIPLE PURCHASES. IF YOU DO BUY  MORE THAN ONE ITEM THEN PLEASE WAIT FOR AN INVOICE BEFORE PAYING, AS EBAY TAKE A 10% CUT OF YOUR POSTAGE COSTS AS PART OF MY FEE SO I CANNOT REFUND POSTAGE ALREADY PAID.

FOR 7" SINGLES, I CAN ALWAYS POST 2 IN THE SAME PACKAGE FOR THE COST OF ONE POSTAGE. 12" SINGLES, ALBUMS, CDs AND DVDs, PLEASE WAIT FOR INVOICE AS THESE ARE ALWAYS GOING TO BE MORE EXPENSIVE TO POST IN MULTIPLES DUE TO THEIR SHAPE/WEIGHT.

I UNDERSTAND THAT THE COST OF POSTAGE IS NOW MAKING BUYING ON EBAY AN EXPENSIVE BUSINESS. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO PAY FOR REGISTERED POST, I AM HAPPY TO SEND ITEMS BY NORMAL POST. HOWEVER, THIS IS AT YOUR UNDERSTANDING THAT I AM IN NO WAY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY LOSS OR MISSING / BROKEN / STOLEN PACKAGES IN THE POST.
IF YOU AGREE TO THIS THEN PLEASE INDICATE BY EMAIL PRIOR TO PAYING THAT YOU WISH TO HAVE YOUR PACKAGE SENT ORDINARY POST.

                    GRADING
RECORDS ARE VISUALLY GRADED, AND PLAY TESTED WHEN POSSIBLE. I USE THE RARE RECORD PRICE GUIDE GRADING SYSTEM. I GENERALLY UNDERGRADE SO I VERY RARELY USE 'EXCELLENT' FOR EITHER VINYL OR SLEEVE.

MINT: THIS IS ONLY USED WHEN A RECORD/CD/DVD IS SEALED AND UNPLAYED.
EXCELLENT : The record shows some signs of having been played.The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

GOOD PLUS: The record has obviously been played many times,and will display noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable. The sound quality has not deteriorated and it does not stick or skip.  THE MAJORITY OF RECORDS FALL INTO THIS CATEGORY.

GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has probably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc. possibly have writing on the label or cover, sticker removal marks that are visible to the naked eye.

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

POOR: The record is more or less unplayable, it will have a lot of surface noise, it will either stick or jump or both. It will only have a value as a collection filler prior to upgrade. ANY RECORD I SELL THAT IS GRADED EITHER FAIR OR POOR WILL ONLY BE SUITABLE FOR COLLECTION FILLING AND THERE IS NO RETURNS OR REFUNDS ON THESE ITEMS.

I DO MY VERY BEST TO DESCRIBE THE RECORDS I SELL AS ACCURATELY AS POSSIBLE. IF YOU ARE NOT HAPPY WHEN YOU RECEIVE YOUR DISC PLEASE EMAIL ME AND WE CAN SORT IT OUT!
PLEASE BEAR IN MIND THAT UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED OTHERWISE,  THAT THE VINYL/CDs I SELL HERE ARE USED, AND NOT NEW. THE ONLY RECORDS THAT CAN BE DESCRIBED AS 'MINT' ARE SEALED AND UNPLAYED. THANK YOU.

*IMPORTANT: PLEASE NOTE THAT I DO NOT CLEAN THE RECORDS THAT I SELL BEFORE DISPATCH; I LEAVE THAT TO THE BUYER AS EVERY COLLECTOR HAS THEIR OWN PREFERENCE AS TO HOW DISCS SHOULD BE CLEANED.

* due to the extremely high cost of postage [over €20 for 1 x 12" record to Australia for example!] I will now only post to Europe* and United States. It is just not viable to send to other locations for me or the buyer. If you live outside these areas and there is something that you really want then please feel free to email for the exact cost of postage. Please do this before placing a bid, thank you :)

*Sorry Italy / RUSSIA but due to the amount of 'missing' items I will no longer post there except by registered mail. If you want to bid on something, please remember that it will cost an average of €7 EXTRA to post.

*Should you wish to return an item, as set out in eBay policies, the buyer is responsible for return postage; no exceptions to this rule.
