PLEASE READ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello,my name is Steve and I have been collecting records (mainly L.P's) for about 30 years.However,there comes a time when everyone needs to 'downsize' a little and this is the time for me.Consequently I am selling off some of my collection.This will be done usually at the rate of a few every week or so.When buying records I have never concentrated on any particular genre or artist/band.My taste has always been to find the unusual and interesting,not always ultra rare,although you will find some very rare items indeed from time to time in my listings,but those records that you rarely see but may have dipped under the rare price guide radar and we all know there are thousands of these! However,I do have a lot of what can be termed 'classic' releases which will also be listed.Many were purchased at the time of original release but like all other collectors many were bought second hand.I think you will find many rare and unusual items on offer regularly.The rarity 'scale' will range from 'difficult to find' to 'virtually impossible' and will cover all genres from Rock to Jazz and incompassing Prog/Psych/Classic Rock/ Indie/DIY/Avant Guard/Country/Blues/Soul/R 'n' B/Electronic/Music Concrete and many others!

All items are from a 'smoke free' envoiroment and the item you see in the photo is the item for sale.I do not use 'library' photos.All items will be sent out within 3 working days of payment being received and sent in professional hard card mailers with 2 cardboard stiffeners(more if required).I do not use the 'flimsy' card mailers that some use.The record(s) will always be taken out of the outer sleeve for protection in transit and your record will be placed in a plastic protective sleeve.

I try to grade conservatively and accurately using the U.K Record Collector grading system but I will use additional +/- suffixes where I deem it necessary to give a more accurate grade.I try to err on the side of caution when grading and will always I beleive downgrade when in doubt.I will only use a 'mint' grade when I know the record has never been played i.e still sealed items or when I myself have owned the record from it's first release and I have played it only once or twice.

I try to give a full and detailed description without you losing the will to live! I think we all know what I mean!

If you have any questions or need any further details on an item please contact me but only using the e-bay listing message button.I will get back to you but please do not leave it until the last moment as I am not at my computer 24/7.

Please see my feedback and bid with confidence.
