Description

For the next ten days I will be offering approximately 50 classical recordings for sale. This selection contains a number of Stereo First Editions on Decca, EMI and D.G.G.

I offer a full and unequivocal refund (including postage) if the buyer is not 100% satisfied with their purchase.

Please be assured that I have no intention of profiting from the postage costs, so all prices quoted are based on the weight of the record, sleeve and packaging, (a custom-made card transport sleeve with a minimum of 2 x stiffeners), plus the cost of this packaging (approx £0.50p).

All items are offered with no reserve.

The majority of listings will be in near mint or excellent condition, so please see the item description for each individual item’s condition – I will endeavour to be specific with each record, as opposed to using generic condition descriptions.

Happy bidding - Frenchnephew !!

Please note :-

 

That I offer a 100% unconditional refund if this item is not as described.

 

As these listings are only spread over a 10 day period, please pay for your item within 4 days.

 

Paypal ONLY from all bidders outside the UK.  If you cannot pay with Paypal - please do not bid !

 

Please feel free to bid on multiple items, to save on postage and insurance, but please notify me if that is

your intention !?

 

I will NOT despatch any item by Surface Mail.

 

Because some people still marked me 'down' on my postage costs, I will list the exact weight of each item, with packaging, which should explain the cost quoted.

 

Any item selling for over GB£ 20.00 will automatically be despatched using Recorded Delivery within the UK ( +£0.70) or International Signed For outside the UK ( + £3.50).  This is to avoid any dispute or ill-feeling over alleged non-delivery, but also to ensure the safe arrival of your fragile purchase.
