SEALED London CSA 2301 (3 LP box set), MUNICHINGER conducting the Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra, Bach 6 Brandenburg Concertos (complete), Ricercare in Six Parts from "A Musical Offering", and Air in D from "Suite No. 3".  This is a 3 record box set.  (The original factory shrink wrap is torn at the top left corner but the box set is still sealed and never been opened.)  Judging from the weight of the box, this is probably a mid-to-late 1960's pressing with the red/silver deep-grooved, narrow band labels.


[Due to time constraints, I will have to come back in a couple of days to describe the item in more detail.  If there is a bid already on the item, please check the VERY BOTTOM of this listing for the added description.]



At least 50% of my buyers are located outside of the United States, and I WELCOME BUYERS OUTSIDE OF THE U.S.  However, I still reserve the right to refuse to honor bids by buyers from countries where shipment routinely gets lost, damaged or delayed and buyers who have a pattern of nonpayment or negative feedback.  Please contact me before bidding should you have any concerns.  I also reserve the right to end the listing early if there is no bid on the item, in accordance with eBay policies. 

GRADING POLICY FOR LPS:  Grading is for the cover/box and for the record.  The record may have two grades, one for visual grade and another for play grade.  I have never played some of these records and some records may only be visually graded.  The grading for the record will be relative to a mint record of the period manufactured by the same record company.  Therefore, the standards will not be the same between, for example, a Japanese Pioneer/Holland Philips/German Teldec pressing of the early 80’s (which are on super quiet vinyl) and a U.S. ABC/MCA pressing of the late 70’s (which are typically noisier).  A Near Mint graded late 70’s U.S. ABC or MCA record will play with considerably more background noise caused by cheaper vinyl material than a Near Mint graded early 80’s Japanese Pioneer, Holland Philips or German Teldec record. 

SHIPPING POLICY:  All records have been cleaned on my VPI 16.5 record cleaning machine and will be placed in a poly-lined or rice paper sleeves, unless the records are sealed.  The LP will be packed in a cardboard box LP mailer manufactured by ULINE.  The record will be placed outside of the LP outer jacket so that it will not damage the cover during transit. 

For U.S. destinations, the shipping cost for 1 record delivered via US Postal Service Media Mail will be $4 for everyone in the Continental United States, and the cost for USPS Parcel Post will be $6 if your State touches the Pacific Ocean, $8 if your State or Commonwealth touches the Atlantic Ocean, and $7 if your State touches neither Ocean.  For each additional record, add $1 for each for up to 5 records.  (Each LP mailer will fit up to about 5 records.)  For example, for a boxed set containing 3 records, please just add $2 to the shipping cost of the first record.  If you would like your item shipped using a different option offered by the US Post Office (e.g., Priority Mail or Express Mail) or a private courier service (e.g., FedEx or UPS), please contact me.

For destinations OUTSIDE of the U.S., below are the prices for US Postal Service First Class Mail and Priority Mail.  Please contact me regarding the cost if you would like your item shipped using a different option offered by the US Post Office or a private courier service (e.g., FedEx or DHL). 

I will NOT be responsible for UNINSURED items lost, damaged or delayed during transit.  If you would like to pay for insurance, please contact me regarding the cost.

ADDITIONAL DESCRIPTION OF ITEM:

This is most likely the second U.K. pressings imported into the U.S. on the red, deep-grooved but narrow-band labels of the mid-to-late 1960's.  I have opened a few of these London box sets from a collection of sealed ones, and they were all mid-to-late 1960's deep-grooved/narrow band label pressings.  They played like new (NM).

As with all my sealed records, if the winning bidder requests (before I ship the item), I can unseal the record to confirm that the record is new and undamaged.  If the record is not in a new condition or is damaged, then the winning bidder can cancel the transaction and receive a full refund for the item.
