Non-UK bidders/buyers - Please scroll down to read the list of countries I am willing to mail to before placing a bid!!   Please also read the listed prices for each group of countries which is at the bottom of this description

The price quoted at the top of this listing is for postage within the UK only - 2nd class signed for with a value of up to £45.  If the record goes for more than this it will cost more to post - see below

Frequently asked questions about postage:

Do you combine postage?  Yes.  I am not a business. 
I have decent scales and if someone buys more than one record I pack, weigh and then send the invoice.  If someone buys quite a lot I will take the time to work out the various ways I can combine items to get the lowest postal costs with the correct insurance.

Will you send by standard postage?  No.  I will not post anything unless it has the correct insurance and a signature at point of delivery.   This includes international postage.

STEREO

THE COVER   is in overall very good condition. Slight wear on the corners.

The front:    it does look a bit grubby, has discoloured at the spine edge and has darker ring wear top and bottom

The spine:
  
has got a bit squashed but it is clearly legible

The back:   also looks a bit grubby and has darker ring wear top and bottom


THE VINYL:  the labels on both sides are in excellent condition and I can't see any spindle marks.  I've played it all the way through on both sides and there are no jumps or sticking points.  There are 2 very faint sleeve scuffs on Side 1 and 2 surface scratches on Side 2 across tracks 1 and 2. The vinyl is very shiny.

If you live in the Canterbury/Herne Bay area you are welcome to collect or I could possibly deliver to a convenient venue.


POSTAGE:  I do not charge for packing materials, time spent packing or walking/driving to the Post Office!  Ebay are now taking a postage fee of 10% of whatever a seller charges.  (Thanks to all the greedy sellers who were deliberately making money on the postage they were charging buyers.) 

UK:   I send items with a value of up to £45.00 by 2nd class Recorded/Signed For to UK addresses.   I will only post an item if it has the correct amount of insurance. This means that the actual postage could be more than quoted at the top of this listing.  The following prices for posting one LP in a mailer with a cardboard stiffener are from the Royal Mail's website.

Value up to £45 - postage will be £3.70 for Second Class Signed For

Value between £45 and £100 - postage will be £6.95 for Royal Mail Special Delivery Guaranteed by 1 pm

INTERNATIONAL: I send items by Airsure if it is available, which means that international postage can be very expensive.  I will only post to countries that are listed on the Royal Mail's website as providing a signed for service at point of delivery.  

If you are happy to pay the Airsure postage, I am happy to post to the following countries for the price shown in red:

EU: - Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Irish Republic, Latvia, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden

FEEDBACK POLICY:  feedback is the fastest way for me to know if your item(s) have arrived safely and after selling quite a few bits and pieces on Ebay I got a bit fed up with buyers who couldn't be bothered or were just too lazy or ill-mannered to leave me feedback so I now leave feedback only for buyers who leave feedback for me. You scratch my feedback and I'll scratch yours!!
