PLEASE SEE ALL PICS

HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUERIES AND PROVIDE FURTHER PICS IF REQUIRED

• See pics for tracks.

• All records are from my personal collection, which has grown over many years to now require a bit of a 'cull'.
• All records will be packaged securely in their inner sleeve and removed from their outer cover, placed within polythene sleeves and strong corrugated card mailers with bubble wrap and a card stiffener for added protection. I make no profit from p&p.
• I will post all records using Royal Mail 2nd class, signed for postage (normally 2-5 working days) and send within 3 working days of receipt of payment but please allow up to 10  days for delivery. 
• I do NOT accept returns, as I believe I have graded each item carefully and accurately. However, any genuine cause for complaint or disappointment following a purchase will be considered and actioned appropriately, upon direct communication. If, for any reason you are not satisfied, please contact me direct and I shall look to resolve the matter immediately. Please do not post negative feedback before allowing me to rectify any unlikely issue
• Feel free to ask any questions about the item while the auction is open.
• Please note I am unable to play every record prior to auction. Therefore all vinyl grading is subject to visual inspection only unless 'Play Tested' is specified.
• I have adopted and adapted the 'Vinyl Factory Vinyl Grading System' by Tom Fisher - http: www.thevinylfactory.com/vinyl-factory-releases/a-comprehensive-guide-to-grading-vinyl-records/ :

*Grading order: vinyl / cover

Near Mint (NM) – The record has been on a shelf between other records. The vinyl looks glossy and clearly has only been played a few times. There are no significant marks on the vinyl and the whole package is complete. / The outer and inner cover, along with all additional items, show no obvious signs of wear or damage.

Excellent (EX) – very light marks and hairlines where the vinyl has been in and out of the inner sleeve a few times, or tiny signs of use generally. / The outer and inner cover, along with any additional items, show only minor signs of wear or damage. All items are complete. There may be minor marks on the labels and around the spindle holes.

Very Good Plus (VG+) – A few further faults but nothing that really compromises the record visually or audibly. Possibly a little rubbing, light inaudible marks or a little background crackle. / The outer and inner cover, along with any additional items may show more obvious signs of wear, damage or loss. There may be stickers, writing on the cover and/or labels.

Very Good (VG) – "seen a bit of life" with more obvious signs of use but still readily playable and enjoyable. Surface noise, pops, clicks and crackle likely in places. Light visible scratches, scuffs and marks may also be evident. / Some elements of the outer and inner cover and any additional items may be visibly damaged or incomplete but generally in very good order for collecting.
