I know it’s a tad crap that it cost more to post a record to say for example Dundalk than to Scotland, unfair but that how it is. Postage costs may change over time. The prices here have be worked out pretty accurately, via posting stuff to these places over the last few months and looking at other distros lists.
Obviously it’s common sense to get CD’s sent without jewel cases to save postage. So if you want your CD’s sent without a jewel cases email and I’ll sort out another rate for that, either way it works out cheaper for you.



I should be getting Pay Pal soon. But then again I procrastinate so don’t get your hopes up. Should have it soon though..

EMAIL [email protected] to reserve stuff/questions etc

Cheques/Postal Orders payable to ‘’Philip Hamilton’’

Hidden cash is not recommended. I’ve had stuff go astray so don’t bother with that. I will berate you incessantly you if you do.
