EARTH WIND AND FIRE-THE BEST OF-ORIG 1978 NR MINT COLUM. WHITE PROMO SOUL RECORD

$

25

This is a rare and super clean near mint original white label promo of the greatest hits compilation of the great Earth Wind And Fire, released by Columbia ARC Records in 1978. This rare edition of this soul masterpiece was issued only to radio stations for promotional over the air radio play. As an indication of the rarity of this LP as a white label promo, there were no white label promo copies of this LP recorded on Popsike.com as sold in their records in the past several years.

The LP visually is in near mint condition and plays very nice and quietly. The cover is in very good plus condition. The corners are reasonably sharp with slight wear. The spine and seams are sharp with no splits but some light spot rub wear. The front and back of cover are very clean with some light visible wear including few short creases. There is also writing on the top mouth corner on the rear of cover. The color on cover is vibrant as is the inside of the gatefold. In grading I use Excellent instead of VG++ for those items deemed just a notch below near mint. Please understand that opened play graded copies may have been graded several weeks before listing so the LP should be cleaned again before play. LPs are cleaned manually as I no longer have machine.

The LP will be shipped within 24 hours of payment, which is expected within 3 days of auction end, in specially made LP mailer with the LP separated from the cover (for unsealed items) and well packaged to protect the item from damage during shipment. Returns are accepted as long as LP is returned in the condition received. Sealed items will only be permitted if returned unopened. 

Shipping cost is $4 per LP. To reduce shipping cost, I will combine shipping on multiple items bid and won during the same auction cycle. Please do not pay until I have had the opportunity to manually adjust the shipping cost. I cannot hold items for multiple auction cycles as it will affect my EBAY standing in so far as it concerns shipment time. I only accept bids from US based buyers and will only ship to the address recorded for the buyer on PAYPAL, which is the only method I can accept for payment.

Please keep in mind that I am a person looking to sell their collection and not a store or commercial seller. I play grade open items sold and do the best I can in the process to give an honest assessment of the item As is shown by my feedback I think I do a good job of satisfying most buyers. I leave feedback for all buyers and if you are satisfied with the transaction I would greatly appreciate positive feedback from the buyer as well. If for any reason you cannot leave positive feedback or are not satisfied, please have the courtesy of contacting me before leaving negative or neutral feedback. In almost all cases the issue can be worked out to the buyers satisfaction even if it means returning the item. If the item is not as described I will bear all shipping costs including return shipping. If a buyer behaves in a rude or unreasonable manner, and/ or fails to contact me to address issues they have with an item before negative or neutral feedback is left, I will block that buyer from further auction participation. 

I am auctioning almost 5000 records of my own collection, including rock. soul, blues and jazz, that are very clean and, included are some very rare items that rarely are available for purchase
