FLAMIN GROOVIES, Supersnazz LP, 1969, CBS/Epic, (SEALED)

Flamin Groovies LP still sealed. Has a little orange sticker on upper left on the wrapping. Back cover has a small sticker saying Imported/Distributed with Peters International/NY, NY on it. I have to assume LP inside is Mint as it has not been opened. I can ignore the Goldmine Standards since it's sealed!

If you are looking at this listing, you must be familiar with them. They have been back 'shaking some action' again all over the States this year. I just saw them November 9, 2013 at the Beachland Ballroom in Cleveland and they were fabulous! Also saw them at the Agora in Cleveland back in the early '70s. This is their first LP with Roy Loney on it, Cyril Jordan, Tim Lynch, George Alexander, and Danny Mihm. Bottom back cover says Printed in Holland. They were from the San Francisco area, starting back in 1975. I feel they were ahead of their time. This is a hard one to give up!  _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

My I.D. in eBay is vinylexs. It used to be surplus-x, but as of January 8, 2014, I started separating my vinyl record products from my other products. Surplus-x still exists and all my original feedback rating from surplus-x has been 100% so far. I have over one thousand vinyl records (78s, 45s, 12", PS, EP, Picture Discs, colored vinyl) that I will be slowly uploading in the next few months (unless sitting on my butt for 10 hours a day doing this starts to hurt).

Will ship within two days of receiving payment via Paypal. Will ship in 45 rpm and LP mailers with inserts and bubblewrap for protection. Will provide tracking number also within the USA. Ships out of the Cleveland, Ohio area. I will ship via First Class mail to Great Britain, Germany, France, Netherlands, and Japan for $13.00 shipping charges on 7-inch 45 rpm records and $19.00 for 12-inch albums. For overseas countries, I will email you the invoice which includes this shipping charge over and above the winning bid.

Returns: I follow the eBay policy - 14 days money back, but buyer pays return shipping charges.

Guidelines I use to rate the quality of these records (based on the Goldmine Grading Guide):

NM:Near Mint - Vinyl, still shiny, as if opened for the first time. No writing or stickers on the vinyl. No obvious scratches. Label: No writing or stickers and no fading of the label.

NM-: Near Mint Minus - Similar to NM but will have some very light scratches on the vinyl not affecting the sound quality. No writing or stickers on label and no fading (or ringwear) on cover or label.

EX: Excellent - Not quite a Goldmine Standard Listing, but being used by many now. Cover: No ink wear, minor creases to corners, no seam tears. Vinyl can have scratches, but not felt by your fingers. Sound quality must be mint. No more than 15% of the surface should have wear or scuffs on it. To me, EX is like a VG++.

VG+: Very Good Plus - Similar to NM- except that on the label, there may be a sticker or writing, but it shows very little wear. There may be only a couple light surface scratches on the grooves, but do not affect the playback with noise or skips. You may only see these scratches if you put them under a bright light and really look for them. The cover might have light creasing or minor seam or corner wear, but still in great condition to show off.

VG to VG-: Very Good to Very Good Minus - May not be that shiny anymore and you will see scratches without putting it under a bright light, but they still would not affect the quality of the playback. The sound quality is still pretty good, maybe a little noise, but not enough to detract from the listening experience. The label might have some fading around it, besides having stickers or writing. The cover may have obvious ringwear in the middle or around the perimeter of where the record was, maybe some side seam splits, or little tears at the top or side where the record goes back into. If less defects, then it's a VG. If it has all this just mentioned, then a VG-.

G, G+: Good or Good Plus - It doesn't mean the vinyl is trashed. It plays though without skipping, but may have heavy noise or fuzz sound because of age, quality, or worn-down grooves. Heavy writing or stickers on the label, ringwear is very obvious on label and cover probably has seam splits. But, amazingly, if you have special audio LP recording software, you could probably clean up those crackles and fuzzes, if you want to create a CD of it for yourself.

P: Poor - This is when the vinyl is warped to the point it warps the playback also. Or it's cracked, but it may or may not still play without a skip. If a picture sleeve is with it, this is torn or marked up bigtime. But someone may want to have it for nostalgia or even attempt to fix it.
