Disgrace s/t 1st EP. Seraphic Decay label # SCAM-007. 1990.

there is confusion on this EP about pressing colors & editions. it was the first record Seraphic Decay pressed without having 'test pressings' made. as a result, there was an entire pressing of 500 on Black vinyl that had a major mastering flaw. all but 2 or 3 of those were rejected & sent back to the pressing plant to be re-mastered(I had one of those. don't ask. its long gone from my hands) and to be put on colored vinyl. this is the proper, 1st release version of this ep.

sleeve- strong EX/EX+. minimal trivial handling evidence to the extreme open edge
vinyl- EX+++/M-. unplayed original colored vinyl pressing. never left its original innersleeve until it was pictured for this auction.


i used to distribute & promote releases on the Seraphic Decay label back when it was active.
back then, when i would get the 25~50 copies i would trade/distro/wholesale away, i put 3 copies
of every 1st pressing away without ever handling them further. i would just play the test pressings
i would get if i ever wanted to listen to them.

that box got stored away at a family members house in the early 1990's when i spent
most of my time playing & touring in the Hard Core Punk bands i was playing drums in.

that specific box did get slightly damaged in storage, and some of the sleeves have
some issues with corner/edge-crunches/dings & minor/trivial bits of humidity/moisture rippling
throughout. nothing horrible, but not "perfect" after all these years.

some of the vinyl has slight 'bowling' as well, but 99.99% thats how they were shipped
from the pressing plant.

all are original, 1st pressings. and none of these have ever been handled until i took pictures
for these specific auctions i have available at this moment, right now.
they are ALL in Near Mint Unplayed condition.

these are Absolute First Editions that you will never find elsewhere in Unplayed condition.
all records are shipped in sturdy cardboard record mailers. fully lined & padded with the vinyl shipped separate from the PS to prevent any type of splitting or ringing in transit.

payment is appreciated within 3 days of auction's end. 5~7 days is ok, but I will file non-payment notices with eBay after that time.

I do my best to ship all items within 3 days of receiving cleared payment, but sometimes delays occur (my work schedule vs hours of operation of my local post office, bank/office holidays, weekends,etc). I always stay in contact to make sure you are informed of when your items actually ship, and of any possible delays, if any.

USA shipping cost is $4 and will be by 1st class mail & includes a tracking number. parcels of multiple items will ship at actual cost. I do not mark-up or over-charge for shipping.

world shipping is by Air, and can be quite pricey as the USPS has drastically raised its international rates in the past year. please check the shipping calculator for the shipping cost to your part of the world. Canada is around $10. rest of the world is approximately $12 ~ $15, depending on your location.

any non USA parcel valued over $50 MUST be sent by Registered Mail at an additional $13 to the base shipping costs. this is to comply with paypal's requirements of proof of delivery.

Italy, France, Russian Federation, South America, Central America, Africa, China = REGISTERED MAIL IS MANDITORY ON ALL PARCELS AT ANY VALUE!!! NO EXCEPTIONS!!!

any USA parcel valued over $100 will be automatically insured, at my cost, to guarantee safe delivery.

non USA bidders- if you chose not to have your parcel sent by registered mail, there is no actual way of having your parcel tracked in transit. however, I will enter the barcode number from the customs form in the tracking number area. this acts as my proof of mailing of your item(s), and you can track the parcels journey thru the USA dispatch portion of its delivery, up until the time it actually is sent outside the borders of the USA. also, some Eastern European & Pacific Rim countries do use the customs form barcode number as a tracking number when it arrives in their area. which specific countries actually do this, I don't actually know. this is just something that has been told to me by employees of the USPS in the past.

if you do not agree with any of the above terms, please do not bid.

please check my other items for sale for things that may also be of interest to you.

thank you for your time & consideration, and good luck!!
