RECORDS and REQUESTS
We have a database of over 2,000 records which will be listed gradually.  Bookmark us or keep calling in from time to time for additions to this section of the shop.  We would prefer not to be contacted with a query regarding a record that you are searching for.  Invariably we will either have it buried somewhere, have sold it yesterday, or not got it.  Searching and replying would simply use time that could be spent listing : )

COURTESIES
Equally we do not contact you to thank you for your order or to inform you of due postage date.  We post once a week and we are extremely grateful for your order.  Sincerely, thank you.

RETURNS AND REFUNDS
All effort is made to ensure accurate grading.  Should on receipt of the record you disagree with our grading, or indeed notice a blemish that slipped the lister's eye, then we issue a full no quibble refund including all postage costs.  Should you decide that you simply do not want the record and agree with the grading we would appreciate that you paid postage and accept a refund of cost of record only.

FOREIGN CUSTOMERS
We prefer eBay to handle offshore sales as they handle the VAT issues with some weight behind them.  However, should eBay postage be prohibitive please do contact us.  We have previously been able to reduce eBay postage costs considerably and had no returns at customs, however we cannot guarantee no returns.  We will work with you but can not work with customs with the same might as eBay and may have to accept a return and refund you in full, including postage cost, should the item get stuck at customs.

CARE
We attend to each LP with great care prior to post.  All records and sleeves are professionally cleaned and restored unless the collector asks for it to be delivered raw.  Old dealer stickers are left on for authenticity and history unless you ask for their removal.  Any sticker marked E/C is our sticker indicating eBay copy and will be removed prior to posting.
GRADING
Grading is visual only.  We play grade snippets of records valued at over £50 prior to postage.  Play grading is ineffective as your set up is different to mine and what sounds good on my system may not on yours and vice versa.
We grade sleeve first/disc/disc 2 if double set, and then gimmicks/extras (booklets etc).  Grading is as a composite whole with detailed description in listings below.  We do not use the outdated goldmine nor RC grading guide - these guides were written long before records needed such close scrutiny in grading.

Our initial grading is as follows

Near Mint (nm) Absolutely as new.  Looks untouched.
Near Mint Minus (nm-) Maybe one slight spindle marking, maybe just a hint of evidence of thumbprint on the label, or almost invisible marking in most light/angle.
Excellent Plus (ex+) Evidence of light spindle marking or similar, almost invisible markings in most light/angle.
Excellent (ex) A strong sharp disc and label, with no wear to spindle hole.  Light hair mark only.
Excellent Minus (ex-) As above but maybe hairline marking easier to detect.
Very Good Plus (vg+) A good strong presentation though evidently used and with light inner removal scarring only.
Very Good (vg) More prominent evidence of use with obvious scarring that will not affect playback other than usual firecrackle in quiet parts.
Very Good Minus (vg-) Poor presentation with a good playback other than expected firecrackle in quiet parts.
Good Plus (g+) Heavily scarred and tatty - will play through with more prominent firecrackle.
Good (g) Will have deep scratches that will affect a stylus adversely*, and will skip or stick in parts.

(*I advise three styli...one for the nm/ex/vg+, one for the vg/vg-, and one for the g+/g)

Vinyl by its nature will have pop and crackle to some extent.  You can hear the sound of a needle in the groove.  Pop and crackle is gradient throughout the gradings.  None of these discs will play like a cd.
