PLEASE READ BELOW AND BUY WITH TOTAL CONFIDENCE

THIS IS ONE OF AROUND 50 OR 60 ALBUMS THAT HAVE COME FROM A RECORD SHOP THAT USED TO RETAIL NEW VINYL ALBUMS. I HAVE KNOWN THE SHOP OWNER PERSONALLY FOR OVER 40 YEARS. THE ALBUMS HAVE BEEN STORED IN BOXES SINCE THE SHOP STOPPED RETAILING RECORDS A LOT OF YEARS AGO AND NOW SELLS DIFFERENT ITEMS. THEY ARE ALL NEW AND UNPLAYED. SOME OF THEM MAY HAVE SOME STORAGE WEAR TO THE SLEEVES  AND ODD VINYLS MAY HAVE  SOME VERY FAINT MARKS (WHICH WOULD BE MENTIONED IN DESCRIPTION IF ANY), AS THEY HAVE BEEN MOVED AROUND OVER THE YEARS BUT THE VINYLS ARE GUARANTEED UNPLAYED  APART FROM MY TEST PLAY.

I HAVE A VINYL COLLECTION MYSELF AND AM RELUCTANT TO SELL THESE BUT NEEDS MUST AS THEY SAY.

I VISUALLY INSPECT THE VINYLS UNDER A HALOGEN TEST LAMP THAT SHOWS THE TINIEST OF MARKS THAT WOULD NOT NORMALLY BE VISIBLE IN ORDINARY LIGHT - I CAN PICK UP LIGHT MARKS AND HAIRLINES ON ALMOST ANY NEW VINYL WITH MY TEST LAMP WHICH IN NEARLY ALL CASES, HAVE NO EFFECT ON PLAY AND ARE NOT NOTICEABLE IN ORDINARY LIGHT IN ALMOST ALL CASES. I AM USUALLY OVER CRITICAL WITH MY GRADINGS AS I VALUE MY FEEDBACK AND WANT YOU TO BE HAPPY WITH YOUR PURCHASE. ALL ARE TEST PLAYED AND ALL STRICTLY GRADED TO THE RECORD COLLECTORS GRADING GUIDE. IF ANY ARE BETWEEN GRADES, I WILL GRADE DOWN RATHER THAN UP. SCROLL TO BOTTOM FOR GUIDE.

FOR YOUR ASSURANCE, ALL VINYLS HAVE BEEN PROFESSIONALLY CLEANED USING A MOTH RCM PRO WHICH WET CLEANS THEN VACUUMS THE VINYL, ENSURING THAT ANY TINY PARTICLES (PARTICULARLY FROM THE CARDBOARD/PAPER INNER SLEEVES OVER THE YEARS) HAVE BEEN REMOVED, GIVING A BEAUTIFUL CLEAN PLAYING SURFACE.

VINYLS ARE REMOVED FROM THE RECORD SLEEVE FOR DISPATCH AND LEFT IN THE NEW INNERS TO AVOID ANY DAMAGE TO THE SLEEVES.

I TAKE GREAT PRIDE AND CARE IN ENSURING YOU RECEIVE EXACTLY WHAT IS DESCRIBED.

POSTAGE COSTS INCLUDE DESPATCH IN SECURE CUSTOM MADE PACKAGING.

FOR UK MULTIPLE PURCHASES, P&P WOULD BE ONLY £4.00 IN TOTAL FOR UP TO SIX VINYLS (A DOUBLE WOULD COUNT AS 2)

JUST "ADD TO BASKET" "CONTINUE SHOPPING" THEN REQUEST INVOICE AND I WILL ADJUST THE COST ACCORDINGLY.

HAVE A BROWSE, BUY A FEW AND SAVE LOADS ON P&P.

UK PURCHASES OVER £20 WOULD BE SENT ROYAL MAIL 2ND CLASS SIGNED FOR AT NO EXTRA COST TO YOURSELF.

PLEASE ASK IF YOU HAVE ANY QUERIES AND I WILL BE HAPPY TO HELP.

I CAN EVEN REFUND ANY EXCESS P&P COSTS AFTER PURCHASE IF YOU MAKE ANY MISTAKES DURING CHECKOUT.

FOR THE EU, IT WOULD BE APPROXIMATELY £1.70 PER EXTRA VINYL UP TO A MAXIMUM OF 6 ALBUMS (A DOUBLE WOULD COUNT AS 2) AS I USE ROYAL MAIL AND THE AIRMAIL SMALL PARCELS LIMIT IS 2KG.

JUST "ADD TO BASKET" "CONTINUE SHOPPING" THEN REQUEST INVOICE - I CAN WEIGH ITEMS WITH PACKAGING AND GIVE YOU MY BEST PRICE.

OUTSIDE OF EU WOULD BE AROUND £2.30 PER EXTRA VINYL.

OVERSEAS PURCHASES OF £25 AND OVER WOULD BE SENT "SIGNED FOR" AT AN EXTRA COST OF £4.70 - PLEASE WAIT FOR INVOICE IF THAT IS THE CASE AND I WILL ADD P&P COSTS. THIS PROTECTS BOTH YOU AND MYSELF.

I DO NOT PROFIT FROM POSTAGE AND USE TOP QUALITY CUSTOM MADE PACKAGING.

PLEASE MESSAGE ME IF YOU HAVE ANY QUERIES CONCERNING P&P - ALWAYS HAPPY TO HELP.

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CHECK MY OTHER ALBUMS AND ITEMS.

THANKS FOR LOOKING

Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide:   " The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.  The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.  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, without any major defects, is acceptable.  The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.  The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.  The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.  The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler."
