Description

Hello, I am a long-time eBay seller - since October, 1999.  I have a 100% feedback record, so bid and buy with confidence.  I have collected records for many years and every record I offer comes from my personal collection.  The grade I specify for the vinyl is based upon a playback as well as a visual inspection.  The grade I assign for the cover and inserts (if any) is based upon a close visual inspection.  My grading standards are conservative - I believe that it does no one any good to inflate the grade of the record only to have the buyer be disappointed upon receipt and wish to return it.  I offer a full, no-questions-asked return policy on every record I sell except in very rare circumstances.  In those rare cases, I clearly state the condition of the record and explain why I cannot accept a return on it.
For sale today is a sealed original copy of The Birds, The Bees and The Monkees issued by The Monkees in 1968.  This copy was the made on the RCA/Colgems label for the Canadian market.  Importantly, the Canadian release was NOT produced with true mono sound.  Instead, it was released in what is often called "fake mono" or "fold-down mono."  So, not as desirable as the US and Australian versions which were issued in true mono.  But, I already owned both the US and Australian mono versions of this album when I saw this album for sale and decided it would be cool to have a "mini-collection" with a sealed, original copy of the Canadian version as well.  
As to condition, what makes this album collectible is that it is in "as-issued" sealed condition.  The cover is in perfect shape, no dings, no creases, no problems!  The shrink-wrap is firm and tight and fully intact.  Really looks like it was issued and released yesterday, not 51 years ago!  
 A great collectible item, thanks for looking.  
Note: to be eligible for a return for refund, this item must be in the same condition as when I sent it: sealed and perfect.
