photos

always show the exact item for sale - email if more pics / info required

unlike many sellers, I NEVER open gatefold covers completely flat for photographic purposes - this practise will almost certainly cause permanent damage to the spine

 

postage

it's a heavyweight double album and booklet - so within UK £6

fast and reliable airmail shipping worldwide is a flat rate of £15

cheaper (UK £5 world £12) if you want less protection

 

packing

time and care taken to make your purchase safe and secure

I pack to the highest standard with strong mailing boxes, thick and heavy oversized inner boards and additional internal wrapping so that records and LP covers cannot be damaged

the disc and cover are always housed separately in a quality plastic sleeve

I do not use those useless flimsy mailers favoured by so many sellers

my guarantee: you will never receive an LP cover from me with bent corners

 

new users

users with high / recent negatives, numerous bid retractions, or feedback lower than (10) should contact me before bidding or bids may be removed

I reserve the right to remove any bid or withdraw any item at any time

 

payment

PayPal

or

online transfer / cash / cheque / wire / SWIFT / IBAN / IMO in GB£ to my UK bank

buyers always informed when payments are received and records shipped
