FEBRUARY 2024

Hello friends, 

My NEW batch of FORTNIGHTLY auctions & Buy It Nows will be completed by the end of Monday February 12th so PLEASE CHECK BACK if viewing before then. MORE IN TWO WEEKS! 

I'm now EIGHT YEARS into selling my immense collection of 1990s independent label ORIGINAL PROMO POSTERS, VINYL, CASSETTES, FLYERS & POSTCARDS. Most are from my hoard acquired whilst in the independent record/music business.

NOW I'm adding my (usually) MINT UNPLAYED VINYL FROM THE 1980s & 1990s to my fortnightly listings. Record shop fresh, stored for decades. Independent labels, guitar bands, and electronica (IDM, EDM) my speciality.

PLEASE ADD ME AS A FAVOURITE SELLER for notifications of 1980s & 1990s NEVER PLAYED VINYL. Mostly from independent labels.

FREE POSTAGE after first item on nearly all printed items, and COMBINED POSTAGE DISCOUNTS on everything else (subject to conditions below).

HAPPY HUNTING!

COMBINED POSTAGE & PACKING DISCOUNT (Terms & Conditions): 

1) You must request an invoice for all items BEFORE making any payment to be eligible for the combined postage discount. No retrospective discounts will be given. In case of difficulty please message me before buying. 

2) Postage & packing for multiple items will be charged at cost (please see above) and the discount is only applicable if your items can be sent in one package without risking damage.

3) EXCEPTION: If your additional purchases take the value of your order into a higher insurance level (please see above) the appropriate 'at cost' increment will be added to your p&p charge, which will still be cheaper than buying two or more items individually.
