1974 French Quebec Prog Rock LP Contraction La Bourse ou La Vie NM Excellent
1974 French Quebec Prog Rock LP Contraction La Bourse ou La Vie NM
This is an original 1974 Canadian pressing of the album “La Bourse ou La Vie” by Quebec progressive rock band Contraction. Contraction was formed by Francois Dervieux in 1972 with musicians used during the recording of his album “M”. Unfortunately, he died of cancer following the release of their self titled album and this album “La Bourse ou La Vie” was recorded by the surviving members along with some additional members. This particular copy is in beautiful mint condition, very crisp and clean, without a mark on the vinyl and even the gatefold cover doesn’t have much give when unfolding it. There is a bit of black print "rub" on the back of the cover, quite minor - this is about as minty a copy as you are likely ever to find. It still has its original lyric sheet insert with illustrations on the opposite side. This is a highly regarded album in Quebec, excellent example of Quebec musicianship......Please click on any photo in order to enlarge…...sold by auction with a low starting price and no reserve.....and please be sure to view my other auctions for more interesting vintage and antique items, all collected from a number of good quality local estates….Canadian buyers, please note that I offer shipping to my customers in the US through Champlain, New York, but because I am a registered business located in Canada, I must charge any applicable GST/HST/PST to a Canadian bidder - read further below to understand my shipping methodology as I do not want any misunderstanding post-sale regarding shipping costs......
IMPORTANT INFORMATION - PLEASE READ:
ABOUT RETURNS: We have had to opt out of eBay’s 90 day return policy, but that does not mean that we do not accept returns. Returns may be made in the case of undisclosed defects or other misrepresentations. Please contact us directly if there is any problem immediately after receiving the item. PLEASE NOTE: BUYER PAYS SHIPPING - PLEASE DO NOT PAY UNTIL I CONTACT YOU AFTER THE AUCTION to avoid error. The reason for this is that package sizes and weights are estimates only as we cannot fully package items before they are sold. Please e-mail us for a shipping quote or wait until after the auction for a precise shipping cost. Our auctions end on Sunday evening, so I will be in touch with the correct invoice by Monday afternoon, after we have had the chance to carefully package your item.
I am now shipping to my US clients through USPS services. I am located in Canada but I now have a carrier service to bring my parcels directly across the border on Wednesdays to be shipped out of the USPS postal outlet in Champlain, N.Y. In addition to the actual shipping cost, I do charge a $2.00 handling fee to cover the cost of this special US service. Please note that even with the handling fee that it is less expensive and is a quicker service than using Canada Post. If you wish your item to be shipped by USPS in the same week, I would require your Paypal payment by Monday at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time.
PLEASE NOTE: For items which sell over $200.00, I must ship to my U.S. clients using Canada Post, this is due to customs regulations.
To my Canadian clients, I use Canada Post for shipping, as I am based in Canada - legally, I am not permitted to ship to you through the US, so do not rely on the US shipping calculator for costs.
To my International clients I can ship by either Canada Post or by USPS (in order to use USPS for intl. clients - the items must sell for under $200.00).
Please feel free to write with any inquiries in regards to cost of shipping to you.
I would request any client to get in touch with me upon winning an item, who is NOT able to pay by Wednesday at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, so I can get an idea of when to expect your payment.
My regular shipping day is Thursday.
PLEASE TAKE NOTE: CANADIAN RESIDENTS PAY GST/HST and QUEBEC RESIDENTS PAY BOTH THE GST AND PST TAX.
Please do not ask us to falsify customs documentation.
"Import duties, taxes, and charges are NOT INCLUDED in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding / buying. These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up - do not confuse them for additional shipping charges. We do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts" - US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior."
