Before
ordering any of our services, please read our
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Prepare
Please make sure all of your items are numbered in the order you want
them transferred. Fill in our order form and list any special instructions,
including how many copies and the format you require. PLEASE DON'T FORGET
TO INCLUDE YOUR CONTACT DETAILS. (See Posting Below)
Packaging
Pack your items and images carefully using suitable materials. Bubble
wrap envelopes are a very good product, and of course, bubble wrap itself
is invaluable! Polystyrene or water soluble packing chips are excellent,
and the old standby - newspaper, is OK too. Cheap and easily available,
shredded newspaper is a bargain! Once the items are protected, seal the
package well with brown parcel tape - not ordinary tape (it doesn't have
to look pretty)!
Packaging - LP's
The golden rule is 'Do not skimp on packaging just to save postage costs'.
Use your common sense and package your recordings to survive the journey.
We supply customised packaging materials that are purpose-made for transporting
delicate LP's & 78's. We can also provide a courier service to get
them safely from your door to ours! We receive hundreds of records per
year without incident. You can be confident that your items are as safe
as we can possibly make them.
We cannot accept any responsibility for items we receive damaged or lost
through inadequate packaging or labelling. PLEASE make sure that you put
your return address on the outside of the package and your contact details
(telephone & email) and any instructions and order forms inside the
package BEFORE posting.

careful preparation and time to produce. We will not sacrifice quality
in favour of quantity! So, please allow at least 10 to 15 working days
for processing and turn-around. If you need it sooner, we may be able
to help - see 'Fast-Track' option below....
