*                                         COMBINED POSTAGE:                                                                 
*                                                                                                                           
* I do offer combined postage on my albums / singles / CDs                                                                  
* However EBAY have a problem at the moment. See here:                                                                      
* https://community.ebay.co.uk/t5/Seller-Central/Issues-with-customers-unable-to-request-a-combined-postage/td-p/7363318    
* So, if you would like combined postage, I currently have to do so manually via a refund.                                  
* Please message me before or immediately after your purchase and I will advise on the discount I can arrange.              
*
*
* If EBAY have resolved the problem, use the option to "add the items to your basket". You can then go to your basket
* and choose to ask to "Request total from seller". If it works I will get a message and reply to you. If it fails you will
* see a "RED BANNER" saying "Seller doesn’t offer combined postage discount". This is a lie from EBAY. I do offer discounts
* so just message me instead. (before or just after your purchase)
*                       
* Thanks for understanding

*                                         POSTAL CHARGES
*
* Please note that EBAY also charge a final fee on all costs and that includes the shipping costs.
* It is currently about 12% which means my postal charge has to include their fees (yes it is a total rip-off)
* As an example my current postage charge of £4.99 equates to my costs of:
* £3.45 for 48hr tracked with Royal mail
* £0.70 for the cardboard box
* £0.60 for EBAY'S fees
* £0.30 for bubble wrap, sellotape, stickers, printing labels and fuel.
* This comes to £5.05 but doesn't include the V.A.T charged by EBAY which I cannot claim back.
*
* As you can see I make nothing from postage, but I do ensure that you get your items in the best and quickest way possible.

*                                             OFFERS
*
* I do not show an "OFFER" option on my listings. However, if you would like to make a sensible offer within 5-10% of
* my asking price, I may take you up on it. It will depend on how I have priced the listing, how rare the item is
* and if I think the offer is fair and genuine.

I am clearing down my personal record and CD collection. I am not a general Ebay seller looking to make a living from this.

I have been collecting vinyl since the late 1970s and CDs since they became a thing.

My collection is quite large and I am offering them as often as I can.

Most have just been collected and never played by me, although some have. As an example I bought my first CD a whole five years before I had a CD player.

The record / CD condition is based on my understanding of the system and is my fair appraisal of each records / CDs condition.

I will rate the vinyl or CD, the record cover or CD box, the sleeve and any inserts seperately (see above).

If I see any defects (minor or major) I will point them out.

However these are second-hand and should be noted as such.

I take as many photos of the records / CDs as I can, so please check the images carefully before you bid. If you would like more photos of any item, just ask and I will help as much as I can.

The photos are of the record / CD you will receive. There are no stock photos here.

I pack them in specialised record shipping boxes. I also add bubble wrap and add FRAGILE stickers when the value dictates it.

I try to ship nearly every day, so you get your records / CDs quickly and I only charge the cost to me.

Some more expensive purchases may require insurance which I add as a postal cost.

Please don't ask for free postage, as I only charge at less than cost.

All "paid items" are sent next day (unless next day is a Saturday or Sunday when they go out on Monday)

These records / CDs have been collected over many years and have been well taken care of. Nearly all are in the same condition as I bought them, many over 35 years ago.

Where possible I list all extra items contained with them and show photos.

Nearly of my vinyl has been stored in protective covers. They have all been kept away from heat and sunlight. I don't supply the protective covers in the sale as they are too large for the packaging.

As I said earlier, many have not been played by me. The grading I give is based on visual inspection only as I don't want to risk any degradation by playing them.

I no longer own a good quality record player, so I cannot test them. But as many of you know, an intense visual inspection is the prefered way of evaluating the condition of all vinyl records.

Please take the time to view all the photos provided, as this works both for me and for you, the buyer. Again, if you are unsure of the quality of any item, please ask for extra photos before bidding. I am always happy to oblige.

My collection is quite eclectic, so if you enjoy music as much as I do, please add me to your favourite sellers to keep a track of my offerings.

Finally, rare vinyl record prices are increasing year on year. As far as I can see they are an investment. They certainly were for me. I really enjoyed playing some of my albums and the ones that were well played will not be sold here as they are not in the condition I would like to buy myself.

If you are looking for something else by any of the artists I offer, drop me a message and I'll let you know what else I have.

Thanks.
