PLEASE NOTE THAT IN CASE OF ANY DISPUTES OVER GRADINGS I ALWAYS ACCEPT NO QUIBBLE REFUNDS UPON SAFE RETURN AND DEPENDING ON CIRCUMSTANCES USUALLY COVER THE RETURN POSTAGE TO SO IN CASE OF ANY PROBLEM CAN YOU PLEASE EMAIL ME FIRST BEFORE GOING THROUGH THE " ITEM NOT AS DESCRIBED " PROCEDURE. YOU WILL FIND THAT WITH ME THERE IS NOT LIKELY ANY NEED TO DO THAT AND EVERYTHING CAN BE RESOLVED BY A SIMPLE EMAIL EXPLAINING THE PROBLEM FIRST THANK YOU

ALSO DISCS ARE USUALLY GRADED ONLY VISUALLY DUE TO THE VARIANCES ON PLAYBACK BETWEEN SYSTEMS SO IF YOU ENCOUNTER A PROBLEM IN PLAYBACK PLEASE EMAIL ME FIRST UNLIKE THE RECENT LOVELY BUYER WHO JUST LEFT ME BACK FEEDBACK WITHOUT NOTICE NOT EVEN GIVING ME THE COMMON COURTESY OF  TRYING TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM ( DETAILS CAN BE A IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL BIDDERS : UNLESS STATED OTHERWISE , MY RECORDS ARE GRADING VISUALLY ONLY. THIS IS BECAUSE I NOT ONLY DO I NOT HAVE THE TIME TO PLAY EACH DISC BUT THE VARIATION IN PLAY QUALITY DECK TO DECK CAN VARY SO VASTLY THIS CAN OFTEN RENDER PLAY TESTING POINTLESS ANYWAY. BECAUSE MANY OF THE RECORDS I LIST ARE RARE IN THEMSELVES  MY RECORDS ARE PRIMARILY SOLD FOR THEIR COLLECTABILITY FIRST AND PLAYING IS SECONDRY. THEREFORE SHOULD ANYBODY VALUE PLAY QUALITY OVER COLLECTABILITY PLEASE BARE THIS IN MIND WHEN BIDDING. HOWEVER IF ASKED BY ANY WINNING BIDDER I WILL PLAY CHECK AFTER LISTINGS END AND SHOULD ANY DEFECT BE FOUND WILL HAPPILY CANCEL THE SALE.... IF THIS IS NOT ASKED THEN IT IS CAVIAT EMPTOR. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR KIND ATTENTION IN THIS MATTER

FOR BIDDERS OUTSIDE UK THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT...  non uk bidders please read my notes about international postage below.....returns policy only applies to UK outside of UK buyer has to cover the return postage! FOR INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS PLEASE ALSO NOTE THAT due to ebays revised " buyer " protection policy even more sellers will start to refuse to sell internationally. I however will still sell internationally but i reserve the right to not to complete any international transaction if the buyer has any bad or witheld feedback or for any other reason that I choose and this is especially so for items that sell for near to GBP 150 or higher. So if you are an international bidder and win one of my auctions and then find I have completed the transaction elsewhere this will be because the new ebay/paypal policy now makes it almost impossible for sellers to sell safely overseas, thank you

FOR BIDDERS WITH ZERO FEEDBACK THIS IS ALSO VERY IMPORTANT...   I have recently been the victim of serveral spurious bids from several different members (usually based in the Russian Federation). Please note that if you win any of my items and have zero feedback I will ask you for immediate payment or for you to email and immediately confirm that you were a genuine bidder. Failiure to meet either of those critiera will result in the item being  offered to the next highest bidder without further delay. thank you. 

FOR  DOMESTIC UK BIDDERS PLEASE NOTE THAT ITEMS THAT SELL WILL HAVE TO BE SENT VIA SIGNED FOR RECORDED DELIVERY WHICH IS GBP 3.99 FOR A SINGLE LP AND GBP 4.99 FOR A DOUBLE LP, THIS IS TO PREVENT FRAUDULENT CLAIMS OF NON RECEIPT, INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS PLEASE SEE MY NOTES BELOW
