BEST OF WAITE HOYT IN THE RAIN-Sealed LP ?Cincinnati Reds Baseball King label

$

20

This item is still sealed, on King Records, of Waite Hoyt, legendary baseball figure, telling stories. 

Record is mint, unopened. This item is still sealed.

Cover is near mint. Album is bright, no discoloring as photo seems to make it to be. No bent corners, etc. A little bit of shrink is coming off in the middle of the record. Very light ringwear.

I am as strict as possible as I expect the same when I buy. That doesn’t mean I might miss something, especially when only visually grading, but I’ve been doing this since the late 70’s (obviously, selling records, not on ebay-that’s only since 1998, which is still a long time!). Any questions in advance, please do ask.

I also apologise for not having the greatest pictures. I hope to improve on that soon. Shooting albums, especially when still in shrink, is something I haven’t mastered-in the latest batch albums look dark in a corner when they are not; my image shows up occasionally; that kind of thing. But ebay requires pics, so I do it. But rely mostly on my description.

Albums will always (if not sealed) be cleaned, usually on my VPI machine and will come with plastic lined sleeves in addition to whatever sleeve the record came with.

They will also come with outer plastic sleeves; be packed very well; and I will always provide tracking numbers once shipped, and that’s usually next day after payment.

Which brings me to a couple of points: Payment is very much expected at auction’s end. Ebay’s unpaid process will kick in after 48 hours. I have gone with that process because it is a drag to chase down payments especially with last minute bidders who win then don’t pay off invoices. Often, that’s on the cheapest items. Don’t be that person, please. I do not have the energy and time to deal with that.

That brings me to another point-my health is declining and yet I literally have thousands of records I have to figure out what do with. There’s a lot of amazing stuff there but I don’t have years to get it done. I have to use my time as wisely as I can. Eventually that might mean bringing someone else in to help. But given that, and the distance to my local post office, it is very much appreciated if you do pay right away so I can ship the most orders in one batch.

I also do combine shipping as well.

Please leave positive feedback when I leave it for you, which I will always do as long as you pay on time. You’ll note the 100% positive rating-I  work hard to maintain that. So again, any questions or issues that arise during this process, please contact me first.

Thanks again, if you have made it this far J
