Buy 10 or more items and get a 10 % discount on the price of the records.  Box sets counts as one item only.  The discount also applies to records on sale. For more info on discounts on very large orders , please contact us.

SOUND SYSTEM:
Audio Note TT3 turntable / Arm 3 / IOII / S8 step up / M5 phono / Conqueror 300B / AN-E Spe HE loudspeakers

Sometimes older mono LP's benefits from being played with a mono cartridge. If you use a Stereo cartridge playing older monos , more surface roar must usually be expected.

RECORD CLEANING: All new listings are from now on cleaned on a Loricraft PRC-6 with L'Art de Son bio cleaning fluid. This has for me proved to be the most effective and safe way
of improving the performance of all LP's - even those in pristine condition. 
Standard size (12") LP's will arrive with new poly-inner sleeve and outer jacket. 

Bid/Purchase with confidence and check out my feedback. I have sold thousands of records on and off Ebay during the last 10 years. As a true enthusiast I have high standards.  All LP's are visually graded in strong light and will be played before listing . I try to offer the best possible service for my customers and if there is any problem with a product , contact me, and we will work it out.
