ANY OTHER QUESTIONS , PLEASE ASK ME , YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED

 

All records have been fully playtested to ensure there are no skips, sticks or jumps at all.

 

All records are professionally cleaned using a MOTH cleaning system prior to despatch. Not only does this wet clean/vacuuming process remove surface marks such as fingerprints, etc, it also significantly reduces background noise and many argue that the lower noise floor results in opening up of the sound and improved fidelity.

A word about hairline marks. It is almost impossible to find any non-sealed record without any hairline marks - many had them from new, particularly if sold with cardboard inner sleeves. They are a result of storage and use and have little impact on sound quality.

 

I package my records in the strongest purpose made mailers for maximum safety.

All records are removed from their picture sleeves where appropriate and posted in a separate plain white inner to avoid damage during transit.

 

The following is the scale I use to grade my records and is to be used in conjunction with the "Hi Res" photos contained in each listing , please buy with confidence.

 

MINT:

 

The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks

or deterioration in sound quality.

The cover and any extra items are in perfect condition.

Records advertised as sealed or un-played should be mint.

 

EXCELLENT:

 

The record shows some signs of having been played,

but there is very little lessening in sound quality.

The vinyl may have some minor hairline surface scuffs which may be visible.

The cover and packaging might have minor wear and/or creasing.

 

VERY GOOD:

 

The record has obviously been played many times,

but displays no major deterioration in sound quality,

despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch.

Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items,

is acceptable.

 

POSTAGE and DISCOUNTS:

 

UK Orders - Please add 1.50 UKP for each additional LP purchased (doubles count as 2)

 

European Orders - Please add 3.0 UKP for each additional LP purchased (doubles count as 2).

 

Worldwide Orders - Please add 4.0 UKP for each additional LP purchased (doubles count as 2).

 

For all International Tracked postage please add 5 UKP (Orders over 20 UKP will be sent ONLY via International Tracked post)

 

This calculation does not apply to orders over 2kg in weight (5 lp's is usually just under 2kg). Orders over 2kg in weight may have to be split into 2 or more packages to ensure shipping is as cost effective as possible and a combined invoicewill be sent at the end of the auction.

 

For multiple purchases , PLEASE WAIT for me to send you a combined postage invoice at the end of the auction day BEFORE making payment otherwise you will end up paying me more postage than is required as postage discounts have to be manually applied.

 

LEAVING FEEDBACK and UNDERSTANDING DSR SCORES:

 

I always strive to provide a 5-star service to my customers by stating my policies upfront, answering questions quickly, sending packages daily, and charging *realistic* safe shipping! In eBay's new feedback system, when you give 4 stars it may seem like a great score. For instance, a 4 in Shipping Time means "Quickly". Ebay, however, considers this a sub-par mark. Their standards require sellers to maintain 4.8 & above, or be penalized with higher fees and lower standing in search results. If you are satisfied with the transaction upon receipt of your item, please don't hesitate to respond with all 5 stars! If you are not pleased, simply contact me and I will work hard to make sure you achieve 100% satisfaction.

 

If you do need me to consider an issue please take care not to open a case in the resolution centre on ebay before you have contacted me.

 

Ebay actively encourages members to try to resolve issues together without their involvement.

Payment Policies

We accept the following forms of payment: PayPal.

Shipping & Handling

All international orders 20 UKP and above will automatically be sent 'international signed for' to ensure they reach you safely.
