 From Wikipedia: "Francis Albert Sinatra & Antônio Carlos Jobim (#4 US JAZZ ALBUMS,#19 US ALBUMS 1967) is a 1967 studio album by Frank Sinatra and Antônio Carlos Jobim. The tracks were arranged and conducted by Claus Ogerman, accompanied by a studio orchestra. Along with Jobim's original compositions, the album features three standards from the 'Great American Songbook, ("Change Partners", "I Concentrate on You", and "Baubles, Bangles and Beads") arranged in the bossa nova style. Sinatra and Jobim followed up this album with sessions for a second collaboration, titled Sinatra-Jobim. That album was briefly released on 8-track tape in 1970 before being taken out of print at Sinatra's behest, due to concerns over its sales potential. Several of the Sinatra-Jobim tracks were subsequently incorporated in the Sinatra & Company album (1971) and the Sinatra-Jobim Sessions compilation (1979). In 2010 the Concord Records label issued a new, comprehensive compilation titled Sinatra/Jobim: The Complete Reprise Recordings. At the 10th Annual Grammy Awards in 1968 Francis Albert Sinatra & Antônio Carlos Jobim was nominated for the Grammy Award for Album of the Year, but lost to The Beatles Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Sinatra had won the previous two Grammy awards for album of the year, in 1967 and 1966. Jobim had to wait for Sinatra to return from a holiday in Barbados where he was taking a mutually agreed 'break' from his marriage to Mia Farrow.[2] Guitarist Al Viola played on "Change Partners" due to Jobim's difficulty with the track, but is not credited on the album.[3] Lyricists Aloysio de Oliveria and Ray Gilbert were also present at the sessions.[2] The album was recorded on January 30 and February 1, 1967, at United Western Recorders in Hollywood, Los Angeles. Later in the evening of February 1, Sinatra and his daughter, Nancy, recorded their single "Somethin' Stupid".[4]"

New Policy Changes, Effective July 15, 2015

      Only my pricing policy has changed, primarily because of the labor intensive nature of selling records the Craig Chase Vinyl way. My way makes me unique among the other fine record sellers on eBay today. This policy change is the first significant one I’ve made since I first began selling records on eBay over 13 years ago. Some reasons for the change are:

• I clean every record I sell. I use proprietary methods which are safe and effective and leave your records as clean as possible. I even clean and repair outer sleeves (and sometimes inner sleeves as well!) should they have some reparable damage (e.g., an open seam, surface grime, and the like).
• I inspect and play-grade every record I sell, except for still-sealed records. (See my grading scale, below).
• I craft my own heavy-duty mailers, not only to save you money, but to protect your investment as it wings its way to you.
• I ship your purchases usually within 24 hours of receiving your payment.
• I offer a no-quibble money-back guarantee should you feel I have exaggerated your record’s condition. Just send it back to me in the shape in which you found it, and I’ll refund your purchase price, including your initial shipping cost. If you prefer to keep the record, I will issue you a partial refund (or credit for a future purchase).

Shipping

• Shipping cost is based on your package's weight. The first single record (plus container) weighs 1 pound, 2 ounces. Each additional record weighs 10 ounces. Obviously, box-sets weigh more.
• Normal domestic shipping is by Media Mail.
• Normal International shipping is by First-Class Mail International.

Record Play-Grades

SS = Still sealed; unopened and un-played; condition unknown.

NM+ = Near Mint Plus. Extraordinarily clean, quiet, and virtually unmarked, except perhaps for a very light spindle track on the label; may not have been played.

NM = Near Mint. Clean and quiet, regardless of scuffs, hairline scratches or apparent defects.

M- = Near Mint Minus. Less quiet than NM, with a bit more background noise , regardless of its source.

VG++ = Very good plus plus. Noisier than NM-; may say why.

VG+ = Very good plus. Noisier than VG++; will say why.

Sleeve Grades

Exc = Excellent. Virtually perfect; may be shrink-wrapped or not; looks almost new.

Exc- = Excellent minus. No major defects; clean, sound, and mark-free; perhaps a slightly bent corner or two.

VG + = Very Good Plus. May have a couple small defects, such as a little writing or a little staining or yellowing, but it's quite presentable.

VG = Very Good. Defects are more noticeable; may have needed seam repair with hot glue.

G = Good. Sleeve has some obvious challenges but is still somewhat presentable.

F = Fair. Need I say more?
