U.S. SHIPPING

If you’re in the States, you can buy as many records as you want and I will only charge $4 for shipping. I use USPS media mail, and it is cheap. You want 1 record or 20 records, it will only cost you $4. In contrast to every other seller, I encourage multiple purchases.

But be warned that USPS media mail is the budget route. Using the service, I’ve had items LOST, STOLEN and DESTROYED. More often than I’d like. If you are very concerned about your order’s safety, FEEL FREE TO REQUEST PRIORITY SHIPPING OR INSURANCE.


INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING
 
Non-US customers, eBay will charge you for shipping. I have no control over their pricing, and often do not even know what they charge. So be warned, shipping is usually in the $20 range for most countries ... or more.

*** SIDE NOTE: I don’t sell to Australia. Too many lost parcels.***



GRADING

Usually, VG++ is as high as you’ll see me go. Near Mint is rare, usually play-test verified, and MINT is reserved for sealed items.

My scale:  VG- / VG / VG+ / VG++ / NM / MINT



PAYMENT

I request payment within 5 days. After 8 days, an Unpaid Item Claim is automatically filed, potentially suspending your account if you are a repeat offender. If there will be a delay in payment, just send me a message and tell me. I don’t bite!


Thank you for your interest, and be sure to check out my other auctions. Might be something you like. Bundle up and save!

EDIT

I should mention that the spotting that shows in the photo is because the shrinkwrap is very tightly wrapped around the album cover. There is no damage to the jacket inside the shrink, but the glossy cover printing is pressing against the plastic shrink, and has been that way FOR FIFTY YEARS.

Nothing wrong with it at all. It's just airtight, baby!!
