Bought David Bowie's Diamond Dogs

Bought David Bowie's Diamond Dogs. They stuck a sticker across it that rips the sleeve if I try to remove it. The Royal Mail just stuck it behind a plant pot in the front garden. Didn't ring the bell to tell us they had arrived. No note or email to tell us it had arrived. I sent an email asking where it was. No reply. Record got soaked. Pretty poor service all round, I'd say. A real 'couldn't care less' attitude. Hard to find? Hard to like.

Fantastic service and quality.

Bought a record marked as VG+ and it’s absolutely immaculate. Was a birthday present for my OH and he was so impressed at the perfect condition, he’d never seen such a good quality 2nd hand outer. Customer service was excellent, it was dispatched same day and arrived a few days later in very good quality, secure packaging. 5*

Hard become easy

First, providing tracking number on every order helps me to organise my time. HTFR provided me tracking number and i recived items with fast service. Second, price of items is very nice, i can buy rare things that are not available in my region. Third, ebay as a portal/database is giving me a lot of space to organise my own business.
