Other Info: Incredibly, and I am guessing almost uniquely, this is still sealed in original sellophane wrapping, never been opened!!  Quite probably a one off chance to get this in this condition!!



Record Condition

Cover Visually Looks: Ex+ (The original sellophane packaging is still attached and has never been opened.  There is one strip of the sellophane that has come off front middle.  The corners have ever so slightly curled due to the sellophane shrinking a tad over the decades.  There is a small white mark bottom left front corner which appears to be inside the sellophane whether that is a small tear or just a flap of paper I am not sure)

Vinyl Visually Looks: MINT (I have to assume the record inside is as new as it has never seen the light of day!!  There is a slight possibility that the vinyl might have a slight dish as the sellophane shrinks slightly over the decades.  It does not appear to from the outside)

Postage
I do not allow records to be personally collected.  All must be sent via postal or courier service.

I will post to most but not all countries in the World. 

I will combine postage if you buy more than one item.  Please wait for me to send you a revised invoice to charge you postage at cost.  Postage costs are the same for 1-3 records.

All records are sent in manufactured record mailers with cardboard stiffeners. The vinyl and cover are separated to avoid seam splits in transit.
I calculate postage using the Royal mail postage calculator. I charge an extra 50p for packing materials as i buy specialist record mailers and stiffeners. Sometimes records cost less to mail than i expect. In these cases i try to refund the difference.

Grading Conditions
I grade the records condition visually only, unless I state what the record actually plays like and provide an audio MP3 sample.  This is because I do not always have time to play everything, so bear this in mind. 

I am strict with my grading so you can feel confident in my conclusions. My feedback will reflect this. 

I do NOT use the grading ‘MINT’ (other than the very rare occasion the record is still sealed).  My ‘EXCELLENT’ grading will mean the record will still have a full sheen with clean vinyl and the sleeve will be free from rips, tears, seam splits.  Any further information like slight defects or type of sleeve will be in brackets after the grading. 

Anyone unhappy solely with my visual grading can return item for refund. However if I have provided pictures and sound files then I do not accept returns on basis of condition. 


MINT: Only used if sealed.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some light signs of having been played, but there is very little or no lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has obviously been over played, and will probably display deterioration in sound quality, it will probably have lots of fine lines and the odd scratch. Wear and tear on the cover or extra items.
