Description
Up for sale is a very nice copy of Elvis Presley's "Touch of Gold" EP. This is an original MAROON LABEL copy issued in 1959 on the RCA Victor Records label, CAT# EPA 5101. The vinyl is in VG condition...a lot of surface scratches which may make noise but won't skip, the label has a couple of flaws including a sticker on the side 2 label. This is a rare record at a reasonable starting bid! Good luck!
Tracks:
SIDE 1: Wear My Ring Around Your Neck; Treat Me NIce
SIDE 2: One Night; That's All Right Mama

Thank you for looking at my record auction! I realize that currently I have minimal feedback, but prior to now, I have always used power sellers coyotecommerce and coyotesurplus as my online agent to sell my items. Any record I put up for auction will be graded using the guidelines set forth by Goldmine, and I will explain why I gave it that grade:
Mint: "ABSOLUTELY PERFECT IN EVERY WAY" - certainly never played. Since I have seen sealed records with mold and creases, chances are I will never use this grade.
Near Mint (NM or M-): "A NEARLY PERFECT RECORD" that shows NO OBVIOUS SIGNS of wear. The jacket or picture sleeve should have no more than the most minor of defects. I will rarely use this grade.
Very Good Plus (VG+): shows some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took care of it. Record surfaces may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experience. The label may have some ring wear. Jackets and picture sleeves will have slight ring wear, turned up corners, or a slight seam split. I will use this grade, and may enhance it with another + if it is warranted.
Very Good (VG): surface noise, scratch(es) that can be felt with a fingernail, groove wear in the vinyl and writing, tape or stickers on the label. (If the record and label are near perfect and there is a sticker on the label from a 45 carrying case, I will give it a VG+ grade and note the sticker). The picture sleeve or jacket might also have writing or a sticker on it, and possibly bent corners. I will also apply a VG- to records that are better than good, but not VG. I will always explain my grade.
Good (G, G+): basically playable without skipping. I will NEVER put a record of this grade on ebay unless it is mega rare or valuable like Elvis on Sun or something like that.
All shipping in US is $4, outside of US, please send me an e-mail. Insurance is optional, and is at the discretion of the buyer. I prefer PayPal as my method of receiving payment, but I will also accept a cashier's check. I will ship the item once payment is cleared. This item is also available for pick-up if you are in the Lansdale, PA area from 11am to 6 pm Tuesday through Sunday.
