Description

Regulator Watts – The Aesthetics of No-Drag (Slowdime/Dischord Records, 1997)

Out of the ashes of the legendary Hoover came Regulator Watts. The band really embodied the DC sound of the ‘90s made popular by Fugazi. Propulsive bass lines and intricate guitar work punctuated by the spoken or screamed vocal part.

This has been out of print for a few years now and is increasingly hard to come by.

Everything here is in excellent condition and has been well-taken care of. The only thing I notice is that the picture inner-sleeve has some minor seam splits which were probably incurred when the LP was shipped to me from Dischord 10+ years ago.

Grading Policies and General Remarks on Vinyl Condition:

I do not own a record store and I don't read Goldmine. I'm not going to try to be an expert on grading. Too often when I buy on eBay, people rate items as "Very Good" that I think are ready for the trash.

I do however take care of my records. Most of them were purchased new from independent stores or distros, and I have stored each in a plastic sleeve to ensure that each record remains in about the same condition. Occasionally, I receive a new record from the label or distro with a small seam split or a bent corner. If that's the case, I'll let you know. If it's used, I'll describe whatever visible flaws I see. If I don't describe a particular item, assume that it is in "like New" condition. Whether or not that makes it M, M-, or NM, doesn't mean much to me.

Shipping:

I charge a modest handling fee (included in shipping quote below) to help cover supplies and time. I always ship in cardboard mailers. Most of the time they’re brand new ones that cost me $2.00 a piece, but occasionally, I reuse a record box that someone shipped a record to me in. As a regular eBayer myself, I know the mystery of whether or not a record will arrive in good condition can be quite frustrating and agonizing. I make sure there is no mystery by telling you how I pack my records up front. I believe that my shipping charges are still about average, and you can rest assured that your record will arrive to you well-packed.

I walk by the post office on a daily basis, so your item will typically be in the mail within 24 hours, but occasionally it will take 48. I ask in turn that you pay promptly. If, after 3 days, I have not received paypal payment or been notified by you, I will start the process of reporting you as a non-paying bidder and relist the item.

 

Be sure to check out my other items, as I offer a pretty good discount for multiple vinyl records. U.S. bidders will pay the highest shipping cost for the auctions you win plus $1.00 for each additional item (Media Mail; Priority will be calculated at auction’s end). Combined shipping for international bidders will be calculated at the end of all auctions and will be based on total weight.
