2. How to buy

This website shows our stock. At the moment every purchase is made through our Discogs store: the "Buy on Discogs" button on each record takes you to its listing. Your contract is with us, and the Discogs checkout, payment and order messaging are also covered by Discogs' own terms. Orders from outside the UK are always placed through Discogs.

3. The records

• All records are second-hand. Each is described and photographed individually, and the photos are of the actual copy you'll receive.
• Media (the vinyl) and sleeve are graded separately to the Discogs/Goldmine standard, conservatively. Grading is visual unless the listing says "play-graded". Details are in our seller policy.
• Each record is a single copy. If it has sold, it's removed from this site straight away.

4. Prices and postage

Prices are in pounds sterling and are the full price of the record. Postage is extra and shown in our shipping costs table. If we ever show a price that is obviously wrong, we'll contact you before dispatching and you can cancel for a full refund.

5. Delivery and collection

We dispatch within 2 working days of payment from Edinburgh, by tracked Royal Mail. Free collection in Edinburgh is available by arrangement. The record is your responsibility once it's delivered to you or collected. If a parcel is lost, we'll refund you in full or send a replacement once Royal Mail confirms the loss.

6. Your right to cancel (14 days)

If you buy from us at a distance (online, by email or through Discogs), you have the right to cancel your contract for any reason within 14 days of the day you, or someone you name, receives the record. This right comes from the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013.

• To cancel, tell us clearly before the 14 days end, by emailing smikirecords@gmail.com or messaging us on Discogs. You can use the model form below, but you don't have to.
• Send the record back within 14 days of telling us, to the address in section 1. You pay the return postage. Please pack it as carefully as we did.
• Your refund covers the price of the record and the original standard postage. We'll refund you within 14 days of receiving it back (or of you showing proof that you've sent it, if sooner), using the same payment method you used.
• We may reduce the refund if the record has lost value because it was handled more than needed to check it, for example if it's damaged or the condition is worse than when we sent it.

7. Records that aren't as described or are faulty

If a record isn't as described, or arrives damaged, tell us (within 7 days for transit damage, with photos and the packaging kept, please) and we'll put it right with a full refund including return postage, or a replacement if we have one. This doesn't affect your legal rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, which entitle you to goods that are as described, of satisfactory quality (taking into account that they are second-hand) and fit for purpose. For more on your rights, contact Advice Direct Scotland on 0808 164 6000.

8. Our responsibility to you

We're responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of us breaking these terms or failing to use reasonable care and skill. We're not responsible for losses that weren't foreseeable. Nothing in these terms limits our liability where it would be unlawful to do so.

9. Law and disputes

These terms are governed by Scots law. If you live in England and Wales or Northern Ireland, you can also bring proceedings in your local courts. If there's a problem, please email us first. We're a small shop and we'll do our best to sort it out quickly.
