Vinyl EX Barely a hairline surface/sleeve mark visible, original vinyl shine, matrix, labels + spindle all EX. Played a few short extracts from all 3 records which played near flawlessly & easily to EX grade with all 3 lying flat in plinth & tracking perfectly. Original Decca FFS record liners EX apart from side No.s written in ink by previous owner as per final picture.
All vinyl has been carefully evaluated under LED light, up close visual (and where mentioned, audio) inspection. As you can see from my 100% +ve feedback I try to provide honest and 100% by the book gradings as per the official record collectors guide & will always err on the conservative when assigning a grading. I also post "RAW" HDR images of media which provide a very accurate visual guide in respect of media condition. In essence, what you see is what you will get with no unexpected surprises.
All LP's are posted in reinforced cardboard packaging with stiffened cardboard insert & a heavyweight polycarbonate protective outer sleeve. My postage costs may be slightly more expensive than some but I ONLY use tracked delivery for LP's as this is the safest way for both parties. For mainland Europe/International I offer a Royal Mail Standard service (on request) to keep costs minimal but for more valuable records I strongly advise ALL potential buyers to upgrade to insured postage to cover any damage in transit. Please contact me if expedited/tracked shipping is required.
My vinyl mailers can hold X2 lp's, so if buying X2 LP's delivery will cost X1 standard delivery charge (as quoted on the listing) + £1. Any problems/issues with your purchase please feel free to contact me & buy with confidence from 100% +ve feedback Ebayer.
Please note that records may be sent using Hermes, RM or other tracked courier depending on destination.
