The Beatles - EPs Collection box set (UK, 14 EPs, flip top box, EX+, Christmas)

We will be closed for the holidays between Monday Dec. 24 - Wednesday, Jan. 2.   Anything purchased just before or during this time will be posted on Jan 2 & 3.  

This is a 7" EP box set by The Beatles called The E.P.s Collection, released in the UK by Parlophone in 1981. 

The set includes all 14 EPs and the flip top box.   This set is unplayed however a few have a couple faint paper marks which will be graded EX+ and any marks will be noted.  If no notes = no marks.    All singles are in MONO except for the bonus EP made especially for this set and the Magical Mystery Tour.   

All records have a 4 prong pushout centre with Parlophone yellow &  black labels.  

The sleeves are all glossy flipback sleeves which will be EX or EX+.  I will note any individual problems.   Please note I Never use NM or MINT unless the item is sealed.  EX+ for a sleeve means there are either no issues or issues so small they are not noticeable.  

All singles are original to the box set but if you have any other questions, please email me.  

Ratings are VINYL/SLEEVE

** As always,  I'm here to help.  Please email me if you have any questions or concerns.  

If you are planning to bid, please take a moment to read the details below and be an informed buyer.  Above anything else, please email me if you have any questions. 

SELLER RATINGS:   Please realize dispatch time is NOT the same as delivery time.  I cannot control the post office.  You are meant to rate MY dispatch time... meaning the time from your payment to my posting.  Due to some buyers not understanding this, I am likely going to lose my Top Seller status which means my items will be harder for you to find and might cost you more to buy.   

POSTAGE COSTS/TIME:   Ebay is not my primary employment and therefore I cannot get to the post office every day.  I will post within 5 business days of cleared payment.  Please make sure you are happy to wait at least 6 days (UK) for your item before bidding.   I do not post on weekends or holidays.

Email for combined postage rates.  I use heavy mailers with stiffeners and plastic sleeves which are included in the postage.  All items will have Proof of Postage.  Anything over £30 will be sent recorded delivery which is £0.95 extra within the UK and £5.15 in addition to normal postage charges for the rest of the world.  Special Delivery is available upon request.   This will cost more so please ask for estimated postage charges before you buy.     With apologies to our buyers, we have had to increase postage costs in response to a massive increase in postage by Royal Mail.  We still only charge what it costs us + a few pence for the cost of packing materials.  

SOUTH AMERICAN BUYERS: ALL items are shipped via International Signed For postage.  No exceptions.  Please wait for your invoice before paying.  

AMERICAN BUYERS:  Stuff is taking up to 4 weeks to get to you. Please keep that in mind.

RETURNS:  Quite simple:  For any reason you aren't happy, send it back to me.  If I messed up - full refund including return postage.   If I didn't mess up - refund of purchase less postage.  Email me with anything,  I'm flexible so just give me a chance to work things out.   

ITEM CONDITION:  All items are used unless otherwise stated.  I do my best to describe everything as accurately as possible but I'm human and do get it wrong sometimes.  I will happily accept returns with full refund + postage when the item is received in the condition it was sent.  I am using the Record Collector grading guide and only visually grade.  Any records I'm not sure about, I will listen to and note in the description. 

After reading all this, if I make a mistake, I would appreciate not receiving bad ratings for item description as I am an honest, independent seller and am trying my best.  Please contact me with questions before bidding and I will provide extra photos of sleeve, spine and record condition upon request. 

Please feel free to email if you have any questions or concerns as I will happily do what I can to resolve. 

Thanks and good luck.
