CONDITION
I am incredibly fussy when it comes to condition and have invested much time and money in pursuit of perfection when collecting treasured titles, often upgrading at huge cost just to get that perfect copy. I will always be 100% honest and try to mention everything however small because I know that you as a serious collector demand the same. I know only full well the dissappointment and time wasting of dealing with sellers who mislead when it comes to condition. I trust my grading below will answer most questions put please feel free to contact me if you need anything else.

PACKAGING/SHIPPING INFORMATION
This is from my own personal collection put together over the last 40 years.
All my records are stored upright with the records removed from their original inner sleeve and put into a new white sleeve which is then put into a stiff white protective card sleeve, this saves wear on the original inner record sleeve and prevents ringwear. The record cover is then carefully put into a heavyweight plastic sleeve. This is how they will be delivered to you and will be sent in strong and secure packaging to ensure they arrive with you in the same condition as they leave me.
U.K. Items of value greater than £50 (including shipping) must be sent Special Delivery as Royal Mail Signed For only includes compensation up to £50 so please wait for me to invoice after the auction close or alternatively select the Special Delivery option.
Non U.K. despatch will be by Royal Mail International Tracked & Signed or UK Mail.
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BIDDING!
Due to a forthcoming move I have no choice but to thin my collection so thIs is a very reluctant sale that is now looking for a good home!
