A bit about me:
It was 1960: I was eight. My cousin joined the Air Force and gave me his collection of 45’s: a great selection including Elvis and Buddy Holly. Usurping the family Dansette, I became well and truly hooked. By 1964/5 I was also seeing some of my favourite artist live. At the age of 11 I joined by first band playing music on and off over the subsequent years that also gave me experience of working in recording studios. Music is in my blood.
Over the last few years I have been selling on EBay and Amazon and accrued feedback that reflects a commitment to customer service and honesty.
What customers say:
I literally could not be happier with the despatch, packing and delivery of my item, which exceeded all expectation. The album itself was in pristine condition, absolutely as described, and had obviously been treated with great care during it's time with PiC. Unreservedly recommended.
Record received quickly and in excellent condition as advertised + well protected from damage in transit. No problems whatsoever, a highly recommended vendor.
Pigg in clover have got to be the quickest service I've received - do they sleep - well pleased and will certainly use again.
Super fast Shipping, very nicely packed and perfect item, as described. Another great buy from pigginclover, look forward to the next purchase! A++++
The quality of the vinyl is great. - And it arrived almost a week before I was told it would. I'm highly recommending this seller.
