<< THE RECORD EXPERIENCE >>

Please read >>> The word rare is over used by near all record sellers nowadays with much false hype with record selling for example people calling a boxed label repress Rolling Stones LP rare rare rare, when it is simply false hype just to make a buyer pay more and to get the buyer to think what they are buying is great when in most cases is it not and just a common or not rare record. I never use the words stunning / awesome or wild parties ETC ETC or any of them other really annoying words that have become the standard for many sellers, I will only use the word rare if a record is. I will not bore you with the life story of an artist, as record collector myself the only thing that matters in a listing is simply the condition (both sound & visual) and what pressing you are buying and then how the record is packed to get to you safe (please see bottom of the page) I think it is as simple as that. I hate the big cheese long winded 3 hour listings reading for example what Jimi Hendrix eat for tea in 1967 and getting off the point of condition & sound and the record being sold, any serious collector or fan of music will know the history of their artists. The excellent grade on my site will be of a high standard, excellent is now an abused grade. A mint- disc on this site will be like new and NOT an EX, an excellent graded disc on this site will be a great example both cover and disc, a very good graded disc and cover will still be nice with some age wear and NOT tatty old junk like I see being sold that should be graded G or fair. I am not claiming my listings to be the shortest but I think they show clearly what you may want to see and state facts about what you are buying or may be interested in and I will keep the the point of the record for sale, a description that states for example EX / EX when buying a record with 1 picture I think is of no use as most of us collectors  have been burnt this way and been sent total rubbish.

Listings are added regular, I put Buy It Now options on many listings, I have a lot or rare and wanted vinyl in stock and I am always buying so please keep an eye out. Thanks John

This is very rare as a UK pressing hardy any was pressed (USA pressings are the norm), this is the only UK example I have ever seen.

The Cover

The labels are in Excellent super condition as you will see below.

Postage For This LP / UK £0.00 Free Post  / Europe £5.50  / Rest Of The World £8.50 

Over seas insurance costs an extra £4.50 if you would like this.

Below is an example of a record that has been packed up and ready to send, I have placed one LP next to the parcel so you can clearly see that it is very thick and oversized so corners and bends are avoided. I use this practice on all records regardless of price, if you spend £10 or £500 your record will be safe. I never use them stupid envelope mailers as any serious buyer will know they are not good enough. I really hate it when you spend a large (or any) sum on a record and the lame seller has used only 1 of them thin stiffeners and a weak mailer and then left the record inside the cover. The worst experience I ever had was a German E Bayer who sent me a LP I spent near £150.00 on in a jiffy bag with no protection! the cover was ruined but he did not care and did not refund. As you will see below much effort is taken with my packaging and thick strong card is sourced to do this.

**All Records are sent out in plastic covers with the record placed out of the front cover to prevent the cover from getting knifed. All records are sent out in very strong packaging as seen above to make sure that they reach you in the condition that they leave here in.**

**For each record or item sent out I will fill out a separate Proof of Postage slip that is date stamped with the address of the destination of the parcel. Insurance will cost extra and is highly recommended, I will not be responsible if this is not taken for items lost in the post.**

**Please note if you cannot make payment within 10 days of auction ending please do not bid as the number of non paying bidders seems to be on the increase. If  there are any problems with sending payment i.e- you on holiday please let me know. I will provide my best service at all times. If payment has not reached me within the 10 days of the auction ending the item will be relisted or sold elsewhere. Please Check out my feedback**

** Please read this- If you have been buying from some dealers on ebay who continue to sell records that have been altered or have stickers placed over writing or to hide damage or in a much lesser condition than stated. I would rather sell the record in it's original state rather than cut out pieces of paper to hide the truth. I am also against skimming, steaming and other dirty tricks. I will playgrade all records and do all grading under a 100 watt light bulb which shows the truth. I will be continuously be placing quality items on ebay from now on as I want to build up my customer base. The only things that I want to come back are customers not records. Thank You.**

All records are visually and playgraded on sound equipment.

If you have any questions please email me.
