Grading Scale:

Mint (M)   Perfect in every way.

I WILL NEVER GIVE ANY RECORD I SELL, NO MATTER HOW GOOD ITS CONDITION, A MINT RATING.

Excellent (EX)   An almost perfect record.

No obvious signs of wear should visible on the vinyl. The sleeve will have only minor defects or signs of slight handling.

Very Good Plus (VG+)   Will show some signs that it was used and handled.  Played, but well cared for by a previous owners.

Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect listening.  The label may have some ring wear or discoloration. Picture sleeves and LP inner sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount.

Very Good (VG)   Similar defects found as in a VG+ record will be visible to a greater degree in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages, but will not overpower the music. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as well as light scratches.

Labels and sleeves may be marred by writing (excepting artist signatures), or have tape, stickers, or their residue. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers.

Good (G), Good Plus (G+)   A record in G or G+ condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear.

A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object.

Payment:

I accept Paypal only. I will only ship parcels to the buyer's registered PayPal address.??Winning bidders will be notified within 3 days of the end of the auction and are expected to remit payment within 7 days.

Packing:

I ship all LP's in new (unused)  LP mailers. We pack records with reenforcement.  The disc is removed from the cover to prevent seam splitting in transit and stored in a "DJ" sleeve. I pack my items to arrive safely and shipping costs reflect that.

A single disc record packed for shipping is estimated to weigh 1 pound and 10 ounces and have the dimensions of 13" by 13" by 2".

Shipping:

Ebay asks it's sellers to set the shipping price before listing an item.  However, setting an accurate shipping price is impossible since the location of the winning bidder or the postal shipping service chosen has not yet been determined.  The shipping cost listed is an attempt to cover the average cost - the actual shipping charge for your item may be slightly more - or less - than the actual cost of postage.

Domestic Items (US destination): I ship by USPS Priority only.  All items will be shipped insured and with "Delivery Confirmation".  The actual cost of the insurance, plus a 50 cent handling fee to cover the packing costs will be added after the end of the auction.

International Items: I ship by United States Postal Service (USPS) only and prefer to ship international items insured for both the buyer's and my protection.  Obviously, this requires customs forms to state the actual cost of the item.

Unfortunately, the USPS will only insure the Priority and Express packages and the rates for this level of can be expensive.

If the buyer prefers, I will ship First Class International Registered.  However, the maximum indemnity is around $46.  I will handle filing any "lost claims" with the USPS, but will not be responsible for any costs beyond the value stated on the customs form or the maximum indemnity allowed, whichever is less.  The Registered service costs $11.75 on top of the First Class shipping charges.

All items are packed to withstand the rigors of traveling through the postal system (see "Packing" above).

Apparently, shipping to much of Europe can be very slow.  Please wait 60 days before filing a claim.

Shipping and handling fees are non-refundable.
