Zappa Collection-----------------------------

If you wish to buy more than one record to save on shipping, just send me a note so I know. Thanks. I will be listing about 30 Zappa records over the next 4 days, and when I'm done I will state as much. Thank you for your interest. When I start listing my Van Der Graaf records, I'll be done with my Zappa records, thanks for your interest and patience.

Jacket:  VG          Writing on  front, front has wear/foxing on most of white sections.  Light shop/shelf wear on corners. Some light splitting of slick on spine, 1 1/2" split on inside of gatefold at spine, 4" seam split at top towards mouth.Some foxing on the white part of inside gatefold. One less of any of these it would be a VG+

Inner Sleeve: EX       Custom original black sleeve. Some light wrinkles .

Disc:   VG+      Some light paper scuffs/scratches. One fingerprint in trailoff area. Some dust. I would play it and clean the needle brush after. Looks new otherwise.

I noticed that in some of the pictures there appears to be flaws in the vinyl. These are reflections. I list flaws, and if it could be seen in my pics it would be a poor condition throwaway! 

I also do not clean the records. This allows you to choose the best method to clean them  yourself, and also keeps the price to you down.  If I cleaned them, it might disguise a defect!

Records are visually graded under good light source, using the Goldmine standard.  If a very rare record is being listed with lots of wear, I will have to play grade it, and will mention that in the listing. I know and love the Goldmine standard, and have been using it for 30 years.  I don't like sellers that just list the grade, without the detail. I try to list the various defects (if any) so you should not be surprised when you get your record.

I will charge media mail shipping on one record, and  if you buy more than one I will not charge any additional shipping.  This may require some trickery to get through the checkout process. In the past I have had to put the overage in the box being shipped, lately I have figured out how to return the overage through paypal.  Records over $200 I will pay insurance and bump it up to Priority Mail.

U.S.A. sales only. I do not do international sales.  I am not engaged in business. I am selling my personal records for my kids tuition.  I sometimes can't  answer email right away, but usually can answer within 24 hours.
