Ok ay, over the past 3 years I've bought quite a few pieces of vinyl from a variety of overseas locations via ebay and many other interweb type thingies...
Got a nice 45 through last night (Memphis Black) - all seemed fine. No sign of any probs on external packaging - a standard cardboard 45 mailer.
Took out the record - nice clean label - then took it out it's sleeve and........F***! big crack from centre to edge.

Bollox!
This is the first time I've ever had damaged records in the post...
Obviously the seller siad it was fine when he sent it - and he has good feedback so seems genuine BUT - who's responsibility is it ? Have any of you guys had a similar experience - what was the outcome?
Is there an ebay rule for damaged goods - or is it down to getting insurance from postage services ??
Any advice is appreciated!
Cheers
