We are OhSo...Pleased to announce our latest acquisition of several vinyl cases of 7" Singles. We could not believe our eyes when we opened the first case to find a collection of near mint Punk & New Wave singles that had not seen the daylight in decades. Most looked unplayed with virtually all of them in protective pockets. To us this was like finding Richard the Thirds Bones as it is so hard to find such a collection that has been so well preserved over the years.

We decided to give this collection it's own shop category so our buyers could easily access and browse them in there entirety. We have renewed the protective sleeves before photographing and gently wiped with an anti-static cloth then placed each single in it's own generic white sleeve to protect the outer sleeve. We will not be cleaning them, as we hope our buyers can appreciate we want the vinyl to arrive to you as unmolested as we found them. We have played a few tracks from the collection, mainly stuff we have not heard for years, and they sounded spot-on but after four decades of storage it is not unreasonable to expect that some may require a light clean and as each collector has there own methods, we would rather leave that to you.

 If You have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Thank You

Our Grading System

We aim to give the best and most honest service that we can provide and so that our buyers can buy with confidence we use the following grading system.

MINT (M) : This item is still sealed therefore unplayed

NEAR MINT (NM) : This item is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items are in perfect condition.

EXCELLENT (EX) : This item shows some signs of having been played with the occasional very light mark or surface marks but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and or creasing. It should be reminded that a record graded as excellent should not be confused with Mint or Near Mint and may have very fine or light marks or lines usually caused by sleeve rub.

VERY GOOD (VG) : This item has obviously been played many times but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratches. Normal wear and tear on the cover and extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD (G) : This item has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeable deteriorated, with some distortion or skips due to scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.

FAIR (F) : This item is still just playable but it has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise: it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained or defaced.

We grade the sleeve and record separately, therefore it could be possible to find a NEAR MINT Disc and a VERY GOOD Sleeve. We do this as we feel it is better to grade the record separately from the sleeve to give a clearer appraisal. Also we may fine tune the grading by adding +/- so the buyer can gauge a true representation of the item that they are purchasing.

Our Prices

We set highly competitive prices for all our products, with regular checks against our online eBay competitors. If in the unlikely event our item can be found on eBay in a similar condition for less, we will be happy to consider an offer.

Best Offer

The Best Offer Feature is a fantastic way for our buyers to always get the best deal and for us to keep competitive on eBay. If our item can be found for less on eBay in a similar condition, our customers have the option to submit an offer for us to consider. If an offer is submitted to us, we will review our price against our competitors price and if the offer is fair and reasonable then we will accept.

If the offer is too low but close to a price that would be acceptable, we may counter the offer. If we counter the offer, this will be our final price as we don't accept counter offers. If the offer submitted is so low, for example half the original list price, we will view the offer as a malicious or a wasted offer and we will simply ignore it without response. The Best Offer feature should only be used when our item is not the lowest BUYITNOW on eBay and in a like for like condition. We never consider offers when our item is already the lowest price available.
