Attention! As Ebay forced sellers to lower all shipping charges to $ 4,- worldwide (which are in reality $ 9,50 for the USA and Japan, $ 5.50 for Europe and $ 8,00 inside the Netherlands) I decided to raise the initial bidding prices with $ 5,50.

So I will charge the following shipping costs for a record:

US and Japan: $ 4.00

Europe (outside NL): no additional shipping costs

Netherlands: $ 2.50

EXCELLENT (EX)The record shows some signs of having been played but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and or creasing

VERY GOOD (VG)The record has obviously been played many times but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surfacemarks and the occasional light scratches. Normal wear and tear on the cover and extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD (G)The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeable deteriorated, perhaps with some destortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

POOR (P)The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD (B)The record is unplayable or might even be broken and is only of use as a collection filler.
