FEEDBACKS
Our LP grading system is visual. We auction more than 200 LPs weekly at Ebay, consequently we do not have time to listen to the records. When mistakes happen, it is rare but they do, we always take care of them immediatelly. If you are not satisfied, please email us BEFORE leaving a negative feedback. From now on, if we receive a negative feedback without any previous contact from the buyer, we WILL leave FOR SURE a negative feedback too.
