Here’s the general stuff:

Records are graded according to the Rare Record Price Guide / Record Collector magazine guidelines. If you are unsure of these please check them out on the Record Collector web site before bidding - its available on their home page at recordcollectormag.com.  Despite the fact that I'm listing a lot of Jamaican records I still grade to RRPG guidelines (with plusses and minuses added) rather than the somewhat looser standard that Jamaican vinyl sellers (and some outside JA as well) tend to use.

Jamaican records are often in very poor condition and even if they manage to survive the hot rocks burns and sand there are often manufacturing faults.  I have play tested all of these records twice each on two turntables (a Rega and a Bush), so they've been played through four times by me very recently and assessment of the audio quality is the basis of the grading.  I do not grade based on appearance, only audio quality.  Please pay close attention to the photos as I try to photograph the bits of the vinyl with the worst appearance, also please look at the photos for label condition as JA records often have badly trashed labels, titles scraped off etc.

For UK bidders only ... If you win more than one auction please wait for me to send an invoice before paying as I will need to work out the postage, if you pay before me sending an invoice for multiple items then I am afraid I CANNOT REFUND THE COMBINED POSTAGE, I CAN ONLY REDUCE IT BEFORE YOU PAY! In other words, I do multiple item postage discounts. I always obtain proof of posting at the Post Office. Normally I can send 3 7" records for the same price as 1, and up to 6 LPs or 8 12" EPs for the same price as 1.

Generally I dispatch the first working day after payment is received. Occasionally though, due to work commitments, it might be a couple of days.

All records are sent out well packaged, at the very least with stiffeners and with a note such as ‘Fragile contains vinyl records, please do not bend’ or similar written on the outside.

I now only accept payment by Paypal or cash on pick-up, no cheques any more I’m afraid.

I am listing a limited number of auctions for sale both inside and outside the UK, for the ones outside the UK I am afraid I will need to use the eBay Global Shipping Program, for which they fix the prices and I have no say over them.  The GSP also doesn't allow combined postage so apologies in advance.

Once you’ve received and used the item you’ve won please leave feedback for me and I will, of course, do the same for you. Generally I leave feedback just after I have sent the item out.

In the highly unlikely event of dissatisfaction with the item that has been won please contact me direct in the first instance and I‘m sure we would be able to negotiate something in a co-operative manner. I endeavour to describe accurately and take all precautions with packaging. I believe my feedback record supports the sound service I’ve provided to people who have ‘won’ auctions.
