Postage: The price quoted for this item is for this item only. If you would like to combine postage for a number of items listed please let me know and I will quote you a fair price to help achieve savings. I do not make money from postage and I may well be able to send 2 or 3 albums for the same price as one so please don’t be afraid to ask 

*** IF YOU DO BUY MULTIPLE ITEMS PLEASE DO NOT PAY WITHOUT REQUESTING A COMBINED INVOICE FROM ME – THIS WILL ALLOW ME TO REUCE THE POSTAGE COSTS WHERE POSSIBLE

I will package very well to try to ensure it arrives with you in the condition it is sent. Please drop me a line if you would like more photos or further information. For vinyl purchases please advise if you would prefer me to send the record outside of the sleeve to minimise the risk of sleeve rub. As a default I will send the record inside the sleeve.

Returns – I will consider returns where the reason is genuine but unless it is an exceptional circumstance would expect you to cover return postage costs and any refund will not include the original postage cost.
