RECORD CLEANING AND ASSESSMENT
This record has been cleaned on the Audio Desk Systeme Gläss machine, and then played IN ITS ENTIRETY, no sampling or guess-work. 
GRADING
I use the UK Record Collector grading system:
Any record graded NM or EX+ will be in very fine condition. If I grade a record EX or EX-, then I will describe any issues with the record which have resulted in the lower grading. I grade records conservatively. If you look at my feedback, you will see that customers often say my records are better than described. Needless to say, I grade the sound of the record, not the visual appearance of the playing surfaces. Records are for listening to, not for looking at after all. Any scuffs or marks will be described, as will any sounding marks.
PACKAGING AND POST
All records are carefully packaged in strong cardboard cruciform boxes with supporting inserts. I supply a fresh inner sleeve and the original where it exists.  I require that you take out shipping insurance for higher value records.
 I will make full value declarations for customs purposes for records sold outwith the EU. Please do not ask me to make lower declarations.
GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT MY RECORDS
I will be putting small amounts of records up for auction at regular intervals. These records are my personal choices, and I have selected them for a number of reasons. The music itself, the quality of the performance, its rarity and desirability, or just because I find a particular record interesting or unusual. I hope you take the time to look at the other records I have up for auction.
