For any further information on this item please contact me. I am not a record dealer so I try my best to describe the items accurately. All gradings are from visual assessment as I am not able to play vinyl at this point. The vast majority of these items come from my own private collection, records which I bought at time of release. I know where they come from, and how carefully they have been handled over the years. Please contact me with any questions you might have. Please if you have any problems with an item, or are not happy for any reason, contact me first to gain refund / find a resolution to the issue.

POSTAGE NOTE: This vinyl record will be posted as a parcel, in bubble wrap, with plywood support. If you would like any of Australia Posts more secure / costly services please contact me prior to shipping and I will be happy to oblige.  A registered parcel (for an additional $3.00) requires a signature.

Thanks for looking! I am in the process of upgrading all listings to improve service to buyers. While ebay has ‘a policy guideline’, unfortunately Australia Post and the nature of selling individual items can occasionally throw us a ‘curve ball’. One size fits all’ definitely does not apply. Any problems please contact me and I will try my best to resolve it! Be sure to check out the other items like T-shirts, posters and vinyl! It’s all still developing, and there is a lot to go up, so come back soon.

YOUR POSITIVE FEEDBACK IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!
