***SINCE I'M NEW HERE...THE FIRST 5 ORDERS WILL GET A FREE RECORD OF MY CHOICE VALUED AROUND $10 AS A THANK YOU!!  :)

Hi and thank you for looking at my auctions!  I'm new to ebay but have been collecting and shipping records for over 30 years!  Due to 

some family medical issues I will be thinning out my huge collection this spring/summer.  I have some real gems that will be up for grabs!  Please keep an eye on my auctions.  Truly a chance to MAKE a collection others will envy!!  I'll have a bunch of rare jazz and blues going up so keep an eye out but I quite literally have music from every genre that I'll be selling. Some auctions and some buy it nows. Individual lps and lots will be listed. All reasonable offers on buy it now listings will be considered but please, no low balling, 

Please bid/buy with confidence!  I will guarantee the listed condition of the records and sleeves.  All records are visually graded according to GOLDMINE STANDARDS. I also play grade many. I grade conservatively.  Generally, if an album is listed as vg...it is probably closer to most others vg+ grade. Any records valued over $20 will also be play graded with notes included in the listing. All records have been properly stored and kept in pristine condition!  All records are professionally ultrasonically cleaned using Tergikleen solution followed by a bath in distilled water. 

**I will include a free archival quality rice paper lined poly inner lp sleeve (Mofi, Vinyl Style or similar quality) and a heavy 3ml weight poly outer sleeve with every record!!  **(These will not be included in "mixed grab lots" i'll be listing). You will be able to tell from the photos which have the liner sleeves included.  :)   

****EXTRA SPECIAL THANK YOU BONUS!!!!****  

Any orders totaling $100+ will get a free record valued around $10 from a similar music genre as purchases.  Orders totaling $200+ will get 1 free record valued around $20 (or possibly a few worth $20 together).  

**PAYMENT AND SHIPPING DETAILS - PLEASE READ:

**I will combine shipping and hold records for up to 2 weeks to add.  PLEASE PAY FOR EACH AUCTION WITHIN 3 DAYS OF AUCTION CLOSE!  I will adjust shipping on any additional auctions you'd like to add.  Please allow me to adjust shipping for add-ons before paying for those.  "Buy It Now" listings require immediate payment.  So, if you'd like to combine those to an existing order please pay right away and i will refund shipping differences.  I DO NOT MAKE MONEY ON SHIPPING!  If anything, I take a loss on shipping and packing expenses.  Please ask questions before bidding/buying.

ALL ORDERS PROFESSIONALLY PACKAGED IN CARDBOARD BOX OR RECORD MAILER DEPENDING ON ORDER SIZE.  I have been shipping records for over 20 years!  They will be packed as well as you've seen anywhere! Records are kept outside of cover but inside protective liners to prevent ring wear.

I highly recommend paying the extra few dollars to ship Priority!  Media Mail can be insanely slow and there is NO INSURANCE on media mail.  ****Media Mail is at buyers risk.  USPS does not guarantee Media Mail so there is no recourse for damaged or lost packages.  Priority does include insurance from USPS in case of loss or damage.  I take a loss on Priority shipping in order to offer it as a financially viable option for you!  Please take advantage of this and combined shipping!  I want you to receive them fast and in the same shape as they were sent!!  I want you to be happy with the purchase and enjoy the music!  I do not however, have any control over USPS, so any delays or damages, the customer must deal directly with USPS/shipping service to resolve.  I have zero control once the package is dropped of at post office and have no insider knowledge or leverage with USPS when there are issues on their end. **By bidding/buying you acknowledge this and accept responsibility if Media Mail is the chosen shipping method and any issues arise after package has been shipped.  I assume no liability or responsibility for delays or damages caused by the shipping service providers and these must be dealt with directly between the customer and shipping provider.**  Thank you for understanding!!

I love music and collecting records!  I also love sharing music!  Unfortunately, life has dictated that I thin my collection.  I'm parting with many of these extremely reluctantly.  Please know these have been well cared for and I want them to continue being enjoyed in others collections!  Thanks so much and best of luck with the auctions!!

THE LISTING DETAILS:

Freddie King - Getting Ready... - - OG 1971 US Capital/Los Angeles Pressing *Guaranteed Authentic - matrix runout confirmed* (SHE - 8905) - - Grading: Vinyl: VG+/EX (Plays super clean!  Almost zero background.  A couple of the slightest hairlines and scuffs which I could barely hear on quiet sections on my audiophile quality system.  Nice and glossy - a true gem!). Many would still list this as NM- even with the minor flaws due to the fact they are mostly inaudible), Cover: VG- (Some shelf, corner wear and slight creases.  See pics.  Graphics very crisp and clean.  Spines also in great shape! Conservatively graded at VG-. Collector Quality all the way!  With original inner liner!  This pressing has the "Superman" logo before it was barred off on later pressings due to copyright infringement.  The logo is also on the liner sleeve which is really cool and adds to collectibility.  Liner is solid condition. Amazing score here!!  

***SERIOUS COLLECTORS - UBER RARE!!! 1 of 34 known copies worldwide listed on discogs.com of this pressing!  Check the site - ZERO for sale worldwide! This is it!! What a find - must have for any blues collector!! Don't let it get away. A true collector item and piece of history!!  Reasonable offers will be considered. Very reluctantly getting rid of this.  I won't go too low tho, sorry.

*Please note - I am not offering media mail as a shipping option for this.  Not worth the chance.  Priority with included insurance only. I'm losing $ on the rate I'm charging for the shipping in order to work with the customer.  I will combine this with others but again, they must all ship Priority.  I promise i will work with you to make it cost effective!  Thanks so much for your support and understanding! --Tim
