Condition
I grade my records under bright light so that there is complete correlation between how the record looks and how it sounds.
Viny: NEAR MINT. Music plays almost as new. No surface-noise. Under bright light vinyl is Mint-glossy and shows just sleeve-removal marks. No scuffs or scratches. Plays brilliantly both sides. Labels look like they were pressed yesterday and show absolutely minimal spindle-marking.
Cover: EX-. Stiff and strong. Clean and shiny. Bright bold colourful print. Some edge- and corner-wear. Some storage-wear. Comes with original printed inner-sleeve which is clean straight and sharp with some light age-spots.
I visit the post office everyday, so if you're in the UK and want your record tomorrow, just get your order in before 16:00 GMT and choose one of the 1st class postage options and it usually arrives next morning. ( Europe delivery 3 days. Rest of the world delivery 1 week.)
And I will of course combine postage for you, so if there are a couple of items that you are interested in, please feel free to message me for a specific postage quote or simply wait for me to send you a combined invoice after you win. I will always get you the cheapest price options. For example, in the UK at the moment I can ship up to 6 LPs for the same price as 1.
Records are sent at buyers own risk. I do get a proof of postage but if you would like your record to be sent with tracking and insurance please select the Signed-for delivery option.
I list new records and CDs every week. Save me as a favourite seller by clicking the blue *Save* button after the link:
