Description
Hello and welcome to one of my listings. Primarily I am a collector however from time to time I like to offer items from my collection. I grade very strictly, using
the UK Record Grading system- both play grading and visual grading are used, Visual grading is based on inspection under both normal and extreme bright
light, as you will see from my feedback I do normally get this right! If for any reason you are not happy however I do ofcourse offer a 100% money back
promise providing the record is returned in the condition it was sent in. Thanks for looking!
