Frequently asked questions about postage:
Do you combine postage? Yes. I am not a business. I have decent scales and if someone buys more than one record I pack, weigh and then send the invoice. If someone buys quite a lot I will take the time to work out the various ways I can combine items to get the lowest postal costs with the correct insurance.
Will you send by standard postage? No. I will not post anything unless it has the correct insurance and a signature at point of delivery. This includes international postage.

STEREO
THE COVER is in overall very good condition. This has got to be one of the most stupid album covers ever for trying to decide which way up to store on the record shelf and how to get the vinyl in and out of the sleeve. The title is printed along the top. There is some wear to the edges.
The front: generally in very good condition apart from creases around the hinge but it is in place and working.
The spine: or in this case, the top. Has some wear but is still clearly legible and not squashed.
The back: generally in very good condition apart from creases around the hinge and very light ring wear.
The inside: is in excellent condition
THE INNER SLEEVE: is the original pale blue Island Records one with the pink "I" stamped on both sides. It was such a pain getting the record in and out of the cover, I folded all the corners on the inner sleeve over so it would slide in more easily.
THE VINYL: lovely and shiny - looks new - no scratches, scuffs or other nasties. Both labels are in A1 condition - no spindle marks, tears, writing, etc.

If you live in the Canterbury/Herne Bay area you are welcome to collect or I could possibly deliver to a convenient venue.
POSTAGE: I do not charge for packing materials, time spent packing or walking/driving to the Post Office! Ebay are now taking a postage fee of 10% of whatever a seller charges. (Thanks to all the greedy sellers who were deliberately making money on the postage they were charging buyers.)
UK: I send items with a value of up to £50.00 by 2nd class Recorded/Signed For to UK addresses. I will only post an item if it has the correct amount of insurance. This means that the actual postage could be more than quoted at the top of this listing. The following prices for posting one LP in a mailer with a cardboard stiffener are from the Royal Mail's website.
Value up to £50 - postage will be £3.70 for Second Class Signed For
Value between £50 and £500 - postage will be £6.95 for Royal Mail Special Delivery Guaranteed by 1 pm
INTERNATIONAL: I send items by Airsure if it is available, which means that international postage can be very expensive. I will only post to countries that are listed on the Royal Mail's website as providing a signed for service at point of delivery.

FEEDBACK POLICY: feedback is the fastest way for me to know if your item(s) have arrived safely and after selling quite a few bits and pieces on Ebay I got a bit fed up with buyers who couldn't be bothered or were just too lazy or ill-mannered to leave me feedback so I now leave feedback only for buyers who leave feedback for me. You scratch my feedback and I'll scratch yours!!
