Checkout/Payment: You’re kindly asked not to rush onto the PayPal “Pay Now” button (especially when you’re winning more than one item) but wait for our invoice instead. We will invoice all winners at the end of each auction with the correct combined P&P cost. It’s in your own interest to follow this guideline please (it only requires little patience) because we will not process any PayPal refunds except for exceptional circumstances

About us: Our descriptions are economic in their wording & limited to the essentials. We hardly use phrasing such as “awesome” coupled with thousands of exclamation marks as a matter of self-respect.

Due to a ‘wave’ of non-paying bidders, we’re sadly forced to restrict bidding to just ONE item for all zero feedback members in an effort to put a limit into this ongoing abuse
In the event you’re a zero feedback member wishing to bid on several items, you need to email us first and request for an exception

Grading 
For grading purposes I use the British Record Collector's grading scale with very occasionally (+) or (-) signs to denote the in-between conditions.

Generally speaking:
MINT (M) a sealed record
NEAR MINT (NM) ultra shiny and clean but opened. No marks
NM-/NM flawless NM, but for 1 or 2 very, very light, non-sounding wispy sleeve marks
Ex+: A few very light, non-sounding hairline marks
EX: A few more light marks. Maybe the odd pop or crackle during play
VG+ or EX-: A tiny more hairline and light marks still. May be some extremely light background noise, with the occasional pop, crackle and tick in places
VG: Quite a few marks but still a decent audio. I only list records in this condition if they are very rare
 
Same logic applies to the cover's grade.
I generally do not list records at inferior grades unless they are extremely rare & sought after.

Payment
PAYPAL (invoice currency), UK Personal or Postal cheques & IMOs in £, are all accepted and goods shall be dispatched promptly at no extra charge

Feedback
A Positive feedback without a 5 star tick is as punitive as a Negative (simple as that) and I don’t mind what you do (it’s your business) as long as you know it
 
Packing
All records are securely packed & shipped in protective plastic sleeves out of their jackets & inners, to avoid seam splits in transit (no cost or time spared)
