Description
Candlebox – Self-Titled + Lucy 2xLP
(Maverick, 1995)
This record is from 1995. That is right in the heart of the dark ages of vinyl, so this was probably very limited and made solely for collectors. You won’t run across too many of these.
I purchased this new back in 1999, and it was the first time I’d ever seen it (I assumed neither of these albums was released on vinyl). I’ve never run across a copy again, except for on eBay.
This particular copy is stamped over the barcode. Also, the sleeve has some minor shelf-wear which I tried to capture in the picture (the corners are a little dinged, and under a bright light, you can tell the cover has been handled just a bit), but other than that, this sleeve is in superb condition given its more than 15 years old. The records themselves look brand new. I only recall playing the self-titled album a couple of times and Lucy maybe once. I have stored this in a clear, resealable sleeve since I purchased it.
Grading Policies and General Remarks on Vinyl Condition:I do not own a record store and I don't read Goldmine. I'm not going to try to be an expert on grading. Too often when I buy on eBay, people rate items as "Very Good" that I think are ready for the trash.
I do however take care of my records. Most of them were purchased new from independent stores or distros, and I have stored each in a plastic sleeve to ensure that each record remains in about the same condition. Occasionally, I receive a new record from the label or distro with a small seam split or a bent corner. If that's the case, I'll let you know. If it's used, I'll describe whatever visible flaws I see. If I don't describe a particular item, assume that it is in "like New" condition. Whether or not that makes it M, M-, or NM, doesn't mean much to me.
Shipping:
I charge a modest handling fee (included in shipping quote below) to help cover supplies and time. I always ship in cardboard mailers. Most of the time they’re brand new ones that cost me $2.00 a piece, but occasionally, I reuse a record box that someone shipped a record to me in. As a regular eBayer myself, I know the mystery of whether or not a record will arrive in good condition can be quite frustrating and agonizing. I make sure there is no mystery by telling you how I pack my records up front. I believe that my shipping charges are still about average, and you can rest assured that your record will arrive to you well-packed.
I walk by the post office on a daily basis, so your item will typically be in the mail within 24 hours, but occasionally it will take 48. I ask in turn that you pay promptly. If, after 3 days, I have not received paypal payment or been notified by you, I will start the process of reporting you as a non-paying bidder and relist the item.
Be sure to check out my other items, as I offer a pretty good discount for multiple vinyl records. U.S. bidders will pay the highest shipping cost for the auctions you win plus $1.00 for each additional item (Media Mail; Priority will be calculated at auction’s end). Combined shipping for international bidders will be calculated at the end of all auctions and will be based on total weight.
Here’s that minor damage I mention. A tiny bit of shelf-wear on the top edge (looks like a seam split but it doesn’t seem to go through) and dinged corners. Nothing too bad, but I want you to be aware of all flaws.
