ABOUT THIS EBAY STORE Please visit my eBay store if you'd like to easily search by categories such as Beatles, Motown, 90s Music etc. I list new items regularly as I'm clearing my collection. Lots of vinyl from UK, US and elsewhere - many rare and signed items from 40 years of collecting. I will be listing 100s of CDs.

ABOUT THIS ITEM

Visual ratings. Anything worse than G gets thrown away.

Please bear in mind a brand new un-played record can have surface noise or clicks….and all are priced accordingly, i.e. a collectable record that is only a few dollars is a gap filler.

If a record has two grading’s then the sides are different , one grading the sides are about the same

 

NM – can’t see anything wrong with it

EX – can only see light wear, should play fine

VG – some marks that you’ll probably hear on playback, but still enjoyable

G – more marks than a VG, but nothing that should stop you enjoying the song

ABOUT GRADING AND STORAGE My records, CDs, Books and other items have been well cared for and come from a non-smoking home. 
Records covers have always been kept upright in plastic sleeves and if ever cleaning has been needed it's been done with record cleaning fluid and the appropriate cloth. Mint - I rarely call a record mint as these are a mass produced product and even a brand new unplayed record can have surface noise and sleeve marks, but I sometimes add 'looks mint' or 'close to mint' EX - nothing wrong with the record visually that will affect play VG - a few light marks but nothing that will affect enjoyment of the record G - good, but likely to have some cracks and pops (i.e. it'll sound like a played record) Acceptable/Poor - fills a gap in the collection or very hard to find in decent condition. Might have a great cover or rare labels etc, but not going to be a record you'd play often.
CD's are stored in cloth sleeves, I do not keep the plastic jewel cases as they take up too much room. The cloth sleeve fits the disc and the booklet but the backing paper is often folded to fit into the sleeve. This causes a crease in the backing paper, but unless I mention anything in the description, the disc itself is in the same condition as it would be in a jewel case. If the original sleeve wasn't a plastic jewel case then I have kept it and you'll get your CD in it's original packaging. 
With all my auctions you'll get a good understanding of the condition and what is included by reading the description and looking at all the pictures.  If you have any questions then message me before you bid. 
ABOUT POSTAGE Please wait for an invoice from me. Ebay postage quotes are not always right. Packing an item to be safe in the post can add weight and size to the item, and raise costs. If you go ahead and pay and then the actual cost is a few dollars more I'll possibly need to send another invoice for the extra. It all adds up! As a rule sending an LP within Australia with tracking is $10.40. Two or three LPs is $17.40, generally, once packed in a way that ensures they don't get bent. Tracking within Aus adds $3 to postage. International is $5. This does not show up on the stamp, i.e. if the stamp states $25, it actually cost $28 or $30 ($3 or $5 more) with the tracking added.
If you're in the Sydney area you can pick up or we can arrange to meet.
I'm always happy to combine lots. Mostly I have Buy-It-Now prices, but if there is an Auction you're looking to win I'm happy to wait until you're done and combine lots as much as possible. I send Registered Post within Australia. This gives Tracking and requires a signature. It adds $3 to the postage cost but ensures neither of us loses out Where possible I add Pack And Track for International eBayers - this usually adds at least Tracking, sometimes also a signature depending on country and cost. If you do not want to pay for tracking then please let me know, but the postage is then at your own risk. If the item is of significant value I will insist on tracking. Insurance costs extra. If you want insurance please let me know and I'll get an exact price from the Post Office.
