Most of our records for sale are from our own personal collection. They were generally purchased at the time of release so there are a lot of early pressing matrix numbers. 

Most are between 25-50 years old and have been played. Some more extensively than others. Occasionally some will have the odd note on the inner sleeve saying how much they cost and when where purchased

Not all have been played recently and we are happy to oblige by giving the record a run out for interested buyers on request as we still play vinyl all the time - but our tastes have changed hence these listings.

General Condition:  (disc/sleeve)

Condition is expressed as two abbreviations, separated by a  slash. The first refers to the disc and the second to the sleeve. The abbreviations we use are as follows:

M (Mint), EX (Excellent), VG (Very Good), G (Good), F (Fair), B (Bad)

For example: EX/VG indicates that the record is in Excellent condition and the sleeve in Very Good condition.

Grading Definitions

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and the contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.

Our covers are graded with their age considered.

The vast majority of items we list are in Excellent or Very Good condition.  We only use the 'Mint' grading for items with no visible flaws at all, so many of our excellent items  are in very near mint condition.  

Please note that most of the records we sell are however 25 to 50 years old. We do not play grade every record so many are visually graded. This is usually sufficient as 99% of the time if it looks clean it will play clean. 

However even those that are played may play differently from one record player to another. So sometimes these old pieces of vintage retro plastic music may have a snap, crackle or pop in them somewhere. 

All records play on our own home record players but if you are really unhappy on delivery at the condition of the record as per its description let us know ASAP and we’ll sort it out for you immediately. Please be assured that we offer a money back guarantee if you're not happy though so bid with confidence.

We only want satisfied customers.

Shipping: This Box Set will be shipped in a purpose designed cruciform at a cost of £4.95

UK Shipping: We charge just £1.40 for a single LP which is half the Royal Mail postage cost. We do not charge for the mailer envelope or packaging. 

We think this is a very fair deal but even better - we charge the same £1.40 UK shipping cost for up to three LPs sent at the same time. 

Please request an invoice for multiple LP orders or if you want to pay immediately to secure the item we will ALWAYS refund the difference.

We can ship to EU countries for £5.50 for a single LP, £7.00 for a gatefold or double LP. Any overseas buyers please make contact with seller before bidding or buying.

Any overseas buyers please make contact with seller before bidding or buying.
