Rainbow Difficult To Cure 1981 Japanese vinyl LP album with inner and OBI sash
The copy you receive is the one pictured here.
Your LP will be sent in a new heavy gauge LP polythene sleeve with the vinyl placed in an inner bag behind the sleeve to ensure that there will be no 'seam splitting' of the cover in transit. We only use Music Max strong boxes with the same brand extra strong 12" cardboard stiffeners and place the box in a waterproof PVC cover. For more expensive vinyl we use the Music Max QP2 or Twists for that extra padding. We aim to process and post orders on the same or next day of purchase.
Whilst I take every effort to ensure the vinyl sold on here is accurately pictured & described, I cannot listen to every vinyl that we list but I do take a great deal of time to play-test as many from each collection that I buy and that, along with visual grading in good sunlight, this allows me to match for condition. I try to include close-up pics of imperfections on the vinyl and these parts are always play-tested before listing. If you are thinking of purchasing expensive items I can listen on request. I playtest with high end, turntables, arms & cartridges.
We never knowingly sell a vinyl that skips or jumps! If it jumps it goes in the bin not on sale!
The exceptions are very rare high-end vinyl. Occasionally we will offer an expensive vinyl that, due to the scarcity of that release, may be of inferior quality. I always fully play-test these items and write a description of the audio play-back. This is the only time you will see our vinyl listed as in the Fair - Good category everything else listed as Good+ and above we expect these to play though without major issues. If your vinyl does not meet your expectations we offer a return-refund policy.
I use the Record Collector guide to condition grading. Please see table below for a guide to how your vinyl should play...
Overseas customers - I do combine orders, if this does not occur at checkout rest assured, I will reimburse you the excess postage before mailing. A rough cost-guide is £2GBP per extra 12"/LP ordered. I try to keep the costs as low as I can for you and subsidise the postage fees as UK residents receive our items free post.
Mailing overseas has become more expensive since Brexit, and this has seen the also introduction of customs fees and procedures. For instance, Ebay will now collect VAT and/or export tax from you at checkout - I have no control over this and realise that this inflates the cost of your purchase, therefore I look to find the best method to send out parcels on an individual basis. Most of our overseas post goes through Royal Mail (tracked if over £40) but if I can find a better service for your package, I will use it and reimburse you the remainder postage if any. I will never ask you for more money if the service turns out to be the best option but more expensive (e.g., Royal Mail overseas service shut-down January - April 2023).
I am happy to offer discount for multiple item purchases, just contact me.
