Special note to foreign bidders: I declare foreign shipments as merchandise with the value you bid for them. Shipment to foreign buyers is via priority mail international with insurance for the value bid. Please e-mail for shipping costs before bidding as this method costs more, but is insurable and trackable. Example: United Kingdom 0-1 pounds $24.00 + $1.10 box/tape/pack = $26.50.
Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.

Feedback/bidding policy: I check feedback daily and will return feedback promptly. Although I go to great lengths to accurately describe my items, if you feel the merchandise is not as described, e-mail me BEFORE leaving feedback and we will resolve it. Please note I do allow returns (see return policy below). If you bid and do not pay, you may expect negative feedback and an unpaid item strike.


Description: Up for your consideration is a unique 45 RPM from Elvis Presley.
The item is further described below, please read the detailed description before bidding.
A few things make this item unique:
First, Elvis narrates before each of the six tracks!
Secondly, this item retains the original shine with some light imperfections.
I did take the time to play this disc and found the two sides to audibly average better than 1/3 of the way between VG+(excellent) and Near Mint. You can assign your own grade based on my comments below.

Thirdly, at the time of this listing, a recent copy sold for $32 on e-bay. So this is your chance to own a unique item at a reasonable price.
Please explore the "Me" link above(next to feedback rating) to check out my store and some of the 15,000+ records / books / CD's / cassettes I have for sale as well as the LP to CD transfer service I offer.

I am using the Goldmine scale of G=Good(1), VG = Very Good(2), VG+ = Very Good Plus(excellent)(3), NM = Near Mint(4) when grading the disc(s).

Here is a summary of the record(s):

Artist: Elvis Presley narrates, see track listing below Title: Perfect for parties highlight album Record: Black vinyl with original shine and up to some light imperfections. Labels: Black with silver print. Labels note: "not for sale." No pen/pencil marks, no stickers, no spindle marks. Silver horizontal line on label as part of print. Trailing wax: Side 1: "G2N H7231-8S A2". Side 2: "G2N H7232-7S A1". Comments: Audibly, the two sides averaged better than 1/3 of the way between VG+(excellent) and Near Mint. You can assign your own grade based on my comments below. An excellent addition to your Elvis Presley / RCA collection. Side 1: Comments: Elvis Presley -- Love Me from album: Elvis Up to a very light surface noise with some very light pops (3.2) Tony Cabot -- Anchors Aweigh from album: Tony Cabot Swings Up to a very, very light surface noise (3.6) Tito Puente -- That's a Puente from album: Puente goes jazz Up to a very, very light surface noise (3.6) Side 2: Comments: Tony Scott -- Rock me but don't roll me from album: The touch of Tony Scott Up to a very light surface noise (3.2) The Three Suns -- Happy face baby from album: Easy Listening Up to a very, very light surface noise (3.5) Dave Pell -- Prom to prom from album: Jazz goes dancing Up to a very, very light surface noise (3.45) Additional criteria I use when audibly grading records for people:
  • NM(4) = absolutely nothing wrong at all (very rarely happens--I've even opened sealed records and they don't play Near Mint)
  • 3.5-3.9 = very, very light surface noise
  • 3.1-3.4 = very light surface noise, very light pops
  • VG+(3) = up to light pops and light surface noise (below this, one's enjoyment is affected, very subjective)
  • VG(2) = up to medium pops and moderate surface noise
  • G(1) = up to heavy pops and heavy surface noise

I would ship this in a 12"x10"x3" box wrapped in bubble wrap. Weight with box is about 9 ounces. Shipping costs: Media Rate $2.38 (0-1 lbs.) Box/tape $1.00, delivery confirmation $.80 = $4.20.

Buyer pays shipping/handling. Standard method within U.S. is Media Rate, $4.20. This includes delivery confirmation which enables you to track shipping of your package online. Outside U.S., e-mail location to determine S/H costs prior to auction end. Insurance / other methods of shipping cost extra. Payment received within ten days of auction ending. Payment via Paypal preferred.
