Description
Shipping within the US is set at $4.00 per package. Therefore, if you buy one album, 2 albums, 10 albums or 20 albums, the shipping is $4.00. I can fit up to about 25 single LP albums into my larger shipping box.
This item is a very nice, original Canadian-import 2-LP vinyl pressing of Before the Flood, by Bob Dylan and The Band. This is the original pressing on CBS Records from 1975, and it features the red CBS record labels. This album is very interesting for a few reasons. It features The Band backing Dylan following his motorcycle accident and period of recuperation, in a series of low-key sessions in 1967-68 at Big Pink (around the time of the recording of The Band’s Music From Big Pink, which featured some tracks from these sessions). These recordings were passed around in the industry for years before their release in this form. This pressing features the gatefold cover.
The vinyl is in solid near-mint condition. The gatefold cover is in excellent condition, as shown in the photo.
NOTE TO ALL BUYERS OUTSIDE OF THE US: Pursuant to Paypal Seller Protection Policy sections 11.3 and 11.4, EVERY item paid for by Paypal MUST be sent via PRIORITY INTERNATIONAL MAIL. PLEASE NOTE THAT BIDDING ON THIS ITEM IS ACCEPTANCE OF THIS REQUIREMENT. The fact that other sellers may send items by First Class International -- and put themselves at risk for claims -- is immaterial. In addition, the USPS just increased their rates. To Canada, the cost for 1 single LP is $22.75USD. To Europe, the cost for 1 single LP is $30.75USD. Multi-album LP sets cost more, so if you have any question at all about postage, please e-mail me before the auction ends (but please give me enough time to respond). Other countries will be about the same as to Europe. Combining multiple albums saves money, and I can send you the shipping costs upon request BEFORE YOU BID. I recognize that this results in very high shipping costs, but it is of no benefit to me because the money is paid to the USPS for postage. If you think this policy is unfair, contact Paypal -- I'm only following their rules. If you have any questions about my shipping policy or costs, please send me an e-mail via My eBay.
I do not use stock photos. The photo shows the actual item up for auction.
I am not a dealer, and all of the items I place up for auction are from my personal collection gathered over the past forty-plus years. I am selling my collection little by little to pay for college expenses for my two kids, in my spare time.
Shipping within the US is $4.00 per package, via media mail, regardless of the number of records up to 25. If you want Priority shipping within the U.S., the cost is a function of weight and postal zone, and I will e-mail an invoice indicating the cost of priority (I can also provide this info while the auction is pending, if you e-mail me your zip code and the number of LPs).
Insurance through the USPS is available, and once again my invoice will provide the cost information.
NOTE: Sealed items are collectible because they are sealed. Since I do not own a store, I cannot return items to the manufacturer. Once opened, I cannot refund the purchase price in full because opening significantly affects its value.
NOTE: Media mail does not have tracking. The USPS offers delivery confirmation with online tracking. If you want online tracking with delivery confirmation, ability, you must purchase delivery confirmation for $0.75.
International Buyers – Please Note:
· 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.
I will always combine items. Payment may be made by paypal. If I do not receive payment for an item within fifteen (15) days of the end of the auction and I do not hear from you in response to e-mails, I will consider the auction results void and relist the item(s) for auction.
Should you have any questions at all about postage, the payment method or for details about any item in particular, please do not hesitate to contact me.
