I am not a dealer but an amateur collector selling duplicated items or records that I no longer want to keep (mostly due to space). I do not clean records (other than a dust with anti-static) and unless indicated in the listing the records have been only visually inspected.
To show your record has arrived safely and you are happy, please leave feedback and I will reciprocate.
I offer reduced postage rates for combined multiple purchases. Usually I post on Thursdays or Saturdays.

Should you want to insure the item by registered post, please let me know and I will find out the additional cost. Please note that, whilst it it comparatively rare for items to be lost or damaged in the post , my part of the transaction contract is legally completed as soon as the item is in the hands of the Post Office.
