RECORD PLAYS BEAUTIFULLY, PROBABLY 'EXCELLENT', ALTHOUGH VISUALLY GRADED VG AS IT DOES DISPLAY SOME VISUAL SURFACE WEAR. (MORE SO IN STRONG LIGHT). IT'S BEEN PLAYED ALL THE WAY THROUGH AND I CAN GUARANTEE THAT IT'S COMPLETELY FREE FROM ANY JUMPS ETC AND ALMOST FREE FROM CRACKLES.
THE HANDMADE SLEEVE HAS SOME RINGWEAR AND SOME LIGHT MARKS. THE LABELS ARE NICE AND CLEAN.
AS COLLECTORS OUT THERE WILL KNOW, THIS SAME LP RECENTLY FETCHED £1.170 ON AUCTION, AND MY RESERVE IS NOWHERE NEAR THAT
BELOW IS A CUT AND PASTE FROM carbooting.com/news.shtml
Nick Hopkins Guardian. (Monday 24th Feb 2003)
Music fan's £1.20 boot sale record sells for £1,170
A record which cost £1.20 at a car boot sale has fetched more than £1,000 in an Internet auction.
Music fan Nick Balaam, of St Ives, Cambridgeshire, found the album called Grannie at a sale near his home early in January. The LP, which was produced in 1971 by an obscure rock band also called Grannie, fetched £1,170 in an online sale also last month.
Andy Davis, editor of Record Collector magazine, said making such a profit on a second-hand record was "a big deal". He added: "The record was privately pressed and so less than 100 were made. Records were normally privately pressed because they weren't good enough to go on general release. But this one is unusual because it's actually quite good. Because so few copies were made it's very rare and therefore there's a market for it. Finding a record like this is a pretty big deal - although it's not unique."
Mr Balaam told his local newspaper, The Hunts Post: "I'm always buying oddities and unusual items on the off-chance that they will be collectible or valuable. I had a good feeling about this but had no idea of its value," he said.

INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS
(PARTICULARLY U.S)
If bidding for VHS Videos please check that your machine plays UK VHS PAL BEFORE bidding, as mistakes CANNOT be rectified afterwards. U.S VHS NTSC and UK VHS PAL are different tape formats. The tapes look the same but on many US machines when a UK VHS is inserted and you press play – all that you will see is fuzz without sound or five thin pictures of the film with sound. This is NOT the condition of the tape and the only two negative feedbacks that I have are from U.S buyers that didn’t check, which seems a little unfair!
GUARANTEES
Everything I sell does come with a guarantee if returned with a genuine reason within a few days. I do check everything I sell before advertising but of course I don’t have the time to watch or listen to everything all the way through (unless it’s really good of course!), so if there are any problems – it’s not a scam and you haven’t been ripped off, it’s just a simple unfortunate incident and your money will be returned immediately and nastiness or vindictive feedback is not necessary by either parties.
PROOF OF POSTAGE/INSURANCE
Proof of postage is taken for everything I sell and can be viewed upon request should an item go astray, which fortunately hasn’t happened yet (Well done, Royal Mail – in my own experience, a first class service!). Insurance is always an option and can be purchased before goods are shipped should you require it. Once posted, I can’t be held responsible for any items.
