MY FEEDBACK SCORE I am proud to have over 1,700 satisfied online customers after nearly ten years of trouble-free eBay selling. I was thus naturally very disappointed to have lost my 100% feedback score this year due to just one, single negative feedback from a Russian buyer who tried to scam a massive discount from me. Please look at my feedback comments before bidding, and rest assured that you can buy from me with confidence. All of my listings are covered by my 100% refund policy should you be unhappy with your purchase in any way. Thank you.

This record will be removed from its outer sleeve and dispatched in a plastic cover WITH TWO CARDBOARD STIFFENERS and posted in strong, good quality cardboard packaging. Please try to recycle the packing cardboard if possible - it might just help to offset the damage done when it was originally manufactured. Alternatively, throw it away and set fire to a couple of old tyres.

I always strongly recommend that you select the insured option for postage irrespective of the value of the contents. Naturally, I will happily provide buyers with any necessary paperwork in the event of them having to make a claim against Royal Mail, but if you do not select the insured option, and your parcel is damaged or goes missing in the post, then you will not be entitled to any compensation, it's that simple.

ABOUT ME:

If you haven't done business with me before my name is ANDY HIBBERD. I am based in England and own a real, old-fashioned record shop called 101 COLLECTORS RECORDS in Farnham, on the Surrey/Hampshire borders, about one hour out of central London.

I am proud to have over 1,700 SATISFIED ONLINE CUSTOMERS after over nine years of trouble-free eBay selling. I was naturally very disappointed to have lost my 100% feedback score due to just one negative feedback from an unethical Russian buyer who tried to scam me. Please rest assured, you can buy with confidence and all of my listings are covered by my 100% refund policy should you be unhappy with your purchase in any way.  

I deal in old and collectable records, CDs, DVDs and music memorabilia in most genres, as well as new vinyl and CD releases and re-issues. 95% of my business is done in the shop, with my eBay sales offering just a, hopefully tantalising, taste of my overall stock. Please feel free to get in touch if you need any further information about this item, if you have any questions about what's currently in stock, or if you need any advice about selling a collection.

I can be contacted on 01252 734409 between 10am - 5.30pm Monday to Saturday.

I am always happy to receive your Wants Lists, but I sometimes file them carefully under bits of paper, which are in turn under slightly larger pieces of paper, that aren't always where I thought I had left them. This could be blamed on incompetence on my part, but I prefer to blame it on the pixies that clearly infest my shop and move things about after I have gone home, the little bastards. However, I will do my very best to find what you want a) immediately, b) the day after you have found it elsewhere, or c) about a year after you have quite frankly lost the will to live.

That said, I do appreciate your interest in this listing. If you are thinking of bidding, please make sure that you have read the description and P&P costs carefully, and take the time to look at my Returns Policy. Also, please check out my Feedback comments and past sales - I am not an anonymous internet seller but a responsible (pixies permitting) and contactable UK record dealer.

Thank you.

Andy
