Officially offered on ebay for Collection only in UK
Postage & Packaging
UK = £25.00 Europe = £58.00 Rest of World = £117.00
Please note cost of my postage includes the cost of all packaging involved.
This box set weighs nearly 11 kilos, the outer box weighs over 3.5 kilos. Therefore the postage is very
expensive. Ebay on its listings only allows me to charge £4.00 for UK delivery. I will expect any UK
purchaser to pay full amount required to post this very heavy item by Parcelforce if not collected.
Due to weight of box sets I cannot usually combine for international multi item winners.
If you purchase a number of sets and you wish to collect them personally
or if you wish to organise and pay for a courier in UK - that is fine by me.
Please just let me know as soon as is practical to do so.
I never ever use surface mail, so please do not ask me to use this
service ever for shipping records anywhere around the world.
All the records I offer for sale here on eBay are previously owned. Condition determined
by magnified visual inspection, supplemented by aural examination where appropriate
My Record Grading Guide
M = MINT
Record will be unplayed with perfect shiny unblemished surface and is in
perfect condition. I never use this grading unless record is factory sealed
NM = NEAR MINT
Record is similar to MINT, is flawless and is in a new shiny and bright
looking state with no surface damage at all, may possibly have a few
spindle marks and should play perfectly.
EX = EXCELLENT
Record shows very minor signs of having been handled with very light
inconsequential wear, may have light scuff marks, may have a few of the
very lightest of hairline surface marks that do not affect quality of sound.
Will have a bright, shiny surface and should play perfectly.
VG = VERY GOOD
Record shows signs of having been played many times with scuff marks
and possibly one or two light scratch(es) that may produce
repetitive light 'ticks' - if so details will appear within listing.
Extremely rare for me to list and offer records with this grading.
All the records I offer for sale here on eBay are previously owned.
Condition is determined by magnified visual inspection, supplemented by
aural examination where appropriate. Records are sold on the
accepted understanding that the collector/purchaser is aware that
most early pressings often had more surface noise than later issues.
No quibble money back guarantee for record should you not be satisfied
