Please note the following :-

- All my records for sale are from my personal collection. All photos are of the actual record(s) for sale. No stock photos.

- Grading according to Record Collectors ratings.

Mint (M)

The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. 


Excellent (Ex)

The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packag­ing might have slight wear and/or creasing.


Very Good (Vg)

The record has obviously been played many times, and may have slight deterioration in sound quality, noticeable sur­face marks and the occasional light scratch. Sleeve will have wear and tear, as expected for it's age.


Good (Gd)

The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and scratches. The cover and contents suffer from significant folding, scuffing of edges, discoloration, etc.



- All records are sent in a stiff record mailer with additional stiffener. Record removed from the sleeve/inner and put into new inner - original included of course. Items put into protective plastic sleeve



- For UK deliveries I will only send by Royal Mail. Delivery experiences (sending and receiving) with alternative couriers is consistently disappointing. Too many missed locations, left at boundary rather than to door, in the rain..... Sent by RM Tracked 48, and with the quality packaging /stiffeners /inner/sleeve totalling >£2, hence Postage + Packaging cost.


- - If bidding from overseas ebay will calculate and charge shipping costs and quote to you. 1 album package is usually below 500 gms, but some album/cover/sleeve/packing combinations are more than 500gms, certainly all Gatefold sleeves and/or double albums - depending upon where it is being sent to. Also, any import duties etc will be buyer's responsibility. I reserve the right to refuse to send to some countries eg Russia.  Also, any import duties etc will be buyer's responsibility
