WELCOME AGAIN TO MY AUCTION. I HAVE BEEN COLLECTING RECORDS SINCE 1970 AND HAVE ABOUT 3,000 LP'S AND 500 SINGLES OF MOST GENRES AND HAVE BEEN BUYING AND SELLING RECORDS ON EBAY FOR 13 YEARS. PLEASE NOTE MY 100% FEEDBACK. I USUALLY TEND TO LIST RECORDS THAT I NO LONGER PLAY OR HAVE DUPLICATES OF, THIS IS MY FIRST OFFERING SINCE 2019. ALL MY RECORDS ARE CAREFULLY LOOKED AFTER, THEY HAVE BEEN CLEANED ON MY KNOSTI ANTI-STAT CLEANER AND PLACED IN BRAND NEW ANTI-STATIC POLY-LINED INNER SLEEVES. ALL THE COVERS ARE PLACED IN BRAND NEW OUTER PLASTIC SLEEVES.  I ALWAYS PLAY THE RECORDS THAT I AM LISTING, LISTENING THROUGH HEADPHONES ON MY HIGH END SYSTEM. I GRADE MY RECORDS USING THE RECORD COLLECTOR'S GRADING SYSTEM - I NEVER USE MINT CONDITION UNLESS FOR A BRAND NEW SEALED RECORD. ALL MY RECORDS ARE SENT OUT IN BOXED MAILERS WITH THICK CARDBOARD STIFFENERS TO PREVENT ANY DAMAGE IN THE POST. I USUALLY SEND OUT RECORDS TO THE WINNING BIDDERS VIA ROYAL MAIL 2ND CLASS SIGNED FOR.
