Description

I am selling off my collection of original first pressing vinyl albums to supplement a house move. It's a pity to let them go but the money is needed for essential repairs. I have adopted the Record Collector magazine’s Grading Guide to describe the condition and I have also play-checked each album, so you can be confident about buying. The pictures are also of the actual album you are bidding on.

Overseas bidders are very welcome. (Please see ‘Notes’ below for postage options.)

UK postage for up to 7 disks is just £3.17

Worldwide postage for 1 album is just £6.22

Condition (using Record Collector Magazine grading)
When describing the condition I have adopted the 'Record Collector' magazine’s Grading Guide. I have also play-checked each album. I have also tried to provide good quality large pictures of the actual album you are bidding on so you can see the condition for yourself. The pictures should speak for themselves.

Vinyl = NEAR MINT: The record has only been played once or twice and is still in near mint condition. Even in bright daylight it is hard to see any marks on the surface of the vinyl and sound reproduction is superb. On test-playing there is absolutely no discernible reduction in sound quality and it's a good pressing with very little background noise.
Cover = EXCELLENT: The cover is in excellent condition for its age, with no major defects. There is just some slight edge and corner wear consistent with age, and a few of the usual small edge-creases and impressions from storage and handling.

Notes
I take care to package records properly in rigid cardboard, thereby making every effort to ensure they arrive to you in the same condition that they were sent.

UK postage for up to 7 disks is just £3.17. This is by Royal Mail Small Parcel, which is the cheapest option. If you would like another service e.g. signed and/or tracked please ask before paying and I will send you an adjusted eBay invoice. I only ever charge at cost with eBay’s 10% commission on top. I do not charge for packaging.

Worldwide postage for 1 album is just £6.22. This is by Royal Mail International Standard, which comes with £20.00 insurance against loss or damage and takes 5-7 working days for delivery. If you buy more than 1 album please don’t pay immediately because I will give you a choice of postage options (economy, standard, tracked and signed). If you'd like any alternative postage service please let me know. I only ever charge at cost with eBay’s 10% commission on top. Please see the table below for a guide to postage costs for multiple albums.

Any other questions? Please ask.

Happy bidding and good luck!
