Description
The Flaming Lips – The Soft Bulletin 180 Gram Vinyl 2xLP, plus Bonus CD of Soft Bulletin Outtakes, Limited Edition and OOP
(Cat No. WB 518653-1, Warner Bros., 2009)
The record and sleeve are in Near Mint or Like New condition. I couldn’t pass this up when I found a copy after it became unavailable in most online stores, but, as I’ve had the cd for years, I don’t know that I ever put this on the turntable. In April, I picked up the Heady Nuggs box set, which includes a reissue of Soft Bulletin, though it is not as nice as this one, as it’s on standard weight vinyl and did not include a gatefold sleeve.
I should probably hold on to this a little longer, because you know that among completists this edition will be coveted for a while given its heavy weight and top-quality jacket. But alas, I need to part with it—I am really running out of room (and money). And it seems like doubles are as good a place to start culling from the collection as any. Don’t miss your chance to pick this up!
Grading Policies and General Remarks on Vinyl Condition:I do not own a record store and I don't read Goldmine. I'm not going to try to be an expert on grading. Too often when I buy on eBay, people rate items as "Very Good" that I think are ready for the trash.
I do however take care of my records. Most of them were purchased new from independent stores or distros, and I have stored each in a plastic sleeve to ensure that each record remains in about the same condition. Occasionally, I receive a new record from the label or distro with a small seam split or a bent corner. If that's the case, I'll let you know. If it's used, I'll describe whatever visible flaws I see. If I don't describe a particular item, assume that it is in "like New" condition. Whether or not that makes it M, M-, or NM, doesn't mean much to me.
Shipping:
I charge a modest handling fee (included in shipping quote below) to help cover supplies and time. I always ship in cardboard mailers. Most of the time they’re brand new ones that cost me $2.00 a piece, but occasionally, I reuse a record box that someone shipped a record to me in. As a regular eBayer myself, I know the mystery of whether or not a record will arrive in good condition can be quite frustrating and agonizing. I make sure there is no mystery by telling you how I pack my records up front. I believe that my shipping charges are still about average, and you can rest assured that your record will arrive to you well-packed.
I walk by the post office on a daily basis, so your item will typically be in the mail within 24 hours, but occasionally it will take 48. I ask in turn that you pay promptly. If, after 3 days, I have not received paypal payment or been notified by you, I will start the process of reporting you as a non-paying bidder and relist the item.
Be sure to check out my other items, as I offer a pretty good discount for multiple vinyl records. U.S. bidders will pay the highest shipping cost for the auctions you win plus $1.00 for each additional item (Media Mail; Priority will be calculated at auction’s end). Combined shipping for international bidders will be calculated at the end of all auctions and will be based on total weight.
