The experience of buying records on Ebay is ruined if, when they arrive, you discover that they are either not in the condition stated or have been damaged in the post! For this reason I describe all my items in detail, and only post using strong sturdy packaging. They are also from a non-smoking and pet-free home.
I accept returns and offer a full refund if you are not happy with your purchase.

The Smiths - Complete Set of UK 7" Single Releases with Variations: 1983 - 1987

These will be pretty heavy to post, but I am offering free standard postage within the UK. Recorded (tracked) delivery will carry a charge of just 1.00. Overseas postage is very reasonable (see postal service details above) and offer extremely good value compared to the very high cost of buying and having them posted individually. These will be pretty heavy to post, but the cost of UK postage will be capped at 4.00 and the remainder paid by myself. Recorded (tracked) delivery will carry an extra charge of just 0.70. Overseas postage is also subsidised (see postal service details above) and represents extremely good value compared to the extremely high price of buying them individually or in small groups and paying the postal prices separately each time.

A fantastic example of probably the rarest item.
