Ravel Complete Orchestral Works SAX2476 - 9 (1ST ED) Stereo


This record is from my late great uncle’s collection. Condition described in detail below. I endeavour to describe all the items I sell as accurately as possible. Please ask any questions before bidding.
My uncle was a bit of an archivist and his collection was stored vertically in wooden record cabinets in a dry home. I do not believe they have been played often, if at all. If they have been played, it will have been on my uncle’s Garrad 301 with SME 3009 arm.
Condition:
Outer box - some speckling from age and the ripple visible the first photo bottom right. 2 very small splits where the cover closes (top left and bottom left of photo 2).  Internally clean with some light powdery marks top left of photo 2.
Insert - some speckling from age.
Sleeves - Wrinkling as photo 3 and one small tear to volume 3 bottom left.
Records - All 4 volumes are in very good condition with no visible signs of physical damage. All 4 would benefit from being professionally cleaned as they have light mildew marks from being in storage for so long.
I have not played these records as I would rather they arrived to you in the exact condition I found them.  I would highly recommend that you have them professionally cleaned before attempting to play them.
Payment:
I will require payment via Paypal at the end of auction.  If the auction remains unpaid after 48 hours I will relist the records and cancel your transaction.  Non-paying bidders are always reported to eBay.
Postage:
I will securely wrap these records in bubble wrap and send in a sturdy outer box with plenty of packing materials.  I will use a fully insured courier service with insurance for the full final value of the auction for both our peace of mind. 
I will dispatch within 2 working days of your completed payment.
When your item arrives please DO NOT sign for it if there are signs of mishandling or damage.  Please refuse the delivery stating the reason and have them return the item to me.
Feedback:
I have been a private seller on eBay for many years and pride myself on having 100% feedback.  If you have any problems at any point during our transaction, please contact me straight away and I will do all that I can to resolve any issues to your satisfaction.
Returns:
I do not accept returns of records so please ask any questions before bidding.
FAQ:
Q:  Will you end the auction early for £xxx? A:  I am sorry, in the interest of fairness, I will let all my auction items run their full course. Good luck with your bid.
Q:  Can I collect from you? A:  Of course. I am based in Mid-Cornwall.
Q:  Can I come and inspect the item? A:  Yes, please message me and I will be happy for you to inspect the item more closely.
