Description
For sale is a record that may be the Holy Grail of Pedro the Lion's albums on vinyl: an original pressing on Coke-bottle-green vinyl of the band's third LP outing, Control, from April 2002. Filled with painfully honest confessionals on the joys and pitfalls of sex outside marriage and the ongoing war in the human soul between serving oneself and upholding one's commitments to put God and others first, the album sports such notable tracks as "Rapture," "Rehearsal," and "Second Best" to support David Bazan's exploration of human nature. This is an album I acquired from a former teaching colleague, so it holds a special place in my memory for that reason.
Whole package rates NM. The vinyl looks and sounds perfect, and the jacket and CD-sized lyric booklet both look completely new. Due to the high value of this album, I'll include postal insurance on your purchase at no extra charge. Be sure to look for my other Pedro the Lion postings on vinyl to stock up, and happy bidding!
LPs from Michael the Record Nut!
As a long-time record buyer and brand new math teacher, I am excited to continue to make available LPs I have collected over the last dozen years but now need to winnow from my shelves. The items I will be posting include quite a range of genres and interests – soundtracks, specialty records, and albums ranging from the typical mainstream to the unexpectedly weird. Check back often to see what surprises I’ve got in store!
Please note my conditions of sale:
-I use Goldmine standards to rate my albums, and I seek to do so conservatively. Items will often receive both a visual check and a playgrade, so that I can review the material one last time and also listen for any differences between audible quality and my visual perception of an album's surface. If there are any potential flaws in an item, I will make sure you know about those upfront. As a rule, I will not attempt to sell records that rate below VG for the total package (unless the item in question is rare or hard to come by). Because I deal largely in used stock and will be thorough in explaining an item's condition, please note that all sales are "as is" and final – returns are not accepted.
-I ship through USPS services to destinations in the U.S. only. All records will be packed sturdily with quality outer cardboard, with records and innersleeves removed from jackets to avoid seam splits on used items. Because of the demands of my work schedule, all shipping will go out twice a week, by Wednesday (if an album was purchased the previous weekend) and by Saturday (for all later purchases or payments).
-I will accept payments for items through PayPal only. If you win one or more of my auctions, please make sure items are paid for within 7 days of the listing's end. Due to recent trouble I've been having with non-payers, please note that I open failure-to-pay cases against those who neither pay nor respond to an invoice within my stated timeframe. Please do not bid or commit to buy if you don't intend to follow through with a payment.
-Shipping will be at cost to the buyer, through Media Mail. I charge a starting fee of $3.17 for one album, and 50 cents for each additional LP.
-I will always be willing to combine shipping on multiple wins/purchases. Just make sure to request an invoice prior to completing your purchase.
-The bottom line: I will make every attempt to insure your satisfaction as my customer. Let me know of any problems prior to posting negative or neutral feedback, as this will help me to refine my services and better serve my fellow record collectors out there. Enjoy!
