Condition of record is a mid VG+ with a few surface marks which cannot be felt and do not affect play. Condition of gatefold cover is VG with a number of flaws - Apparently the inside cover slick was torn and lifted up in the area of the 'Audition Copy' rubber stamp at some point and was re-glued down. There are 4" splits in the right hand sides of both the top and bottom edges of the back gatefold and a 2" split in the middle of its bottom edge; I have carefully and neatly repaired these splits by taping from the inside. Cover also has some ring and contact wear and some general wear along the edges and on the corners. I have priced this LP modestly due to the various condition issues, I will leave it to the bidders to determine its final value - This LP would be a nice addition to any Blue Note Records or modern jazz record collection! Media mail postage within the U.S. is $4.00. I WILL SHIP WORLDWIDE - PLEASE NOTE: NEW FIRST CLASS INTERNATIONAL AIRMAIL POSTAGE TO AREAS OUTSIDE THE U.S EXCEPT FOR CANADA (17.50) AND GERMANY is $22.00 - YES IT'S CRAZY, THIS IS THE U.S. POSTAL SERVICE AS OF 1/27, NOT ME!!! PLEASE NOTE: AN EXTRA $13.95 TO COVER REGISTERED POSTAGE WITH TRACKING AND SIGNATURE DELIVERY WILL BE ADDED TO ALL SHIPMENTS VALUED OVER $50.00 GOING TO BUYERS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES. ALSO, DUE TO THE GERMAN POST AND CUSTOMS CONTINUING FAILURE TO DELIVER MY PACKAGES, I AM FORCED TO ADD AN ADDITIONAL $13.95 TO COVER REGISTERED POSTAGE WITH TRACKING AND SIGNATURE DELIVERY TO ALL SHIPMENTS GOING TO GERMANY. I APOLOGIZE FOR THIS, BUT I CANNOT CONTINUE TO LOSE MONEY AND HAVE MY EBAY REPUTATION DAMAGED BY THE GERMAN POST AND CUSTOMS' INABILITY TO DELIVER MY PACKAGES. Please e-mail me for postage rates to other areas outside the U.S.! BUYER PLEASE DO NOT SEND CASH - IT PROBABLY WILL NOT GET HERE! I will give an immediate refund (less shipping) upon return of the LP if buyer is dissatisfied for any reason. Good luck!
