SHIPPING COSTS

DOMESTIC: Under one pound is $3.00 for Media Mail or $5.50 for Priority Mail (both include delivery confirmation). Minimum charge helps defer some of my cost for mailers and packing supplies. Over one pound will be determined by weight and USPS postal zone. I will always try to ship bulk orders the least expensive option, either Media Mail or Parcel Post, unless Priority Mail is requested. I include delivery confirmation with each order, but please, understand delivery confirmation is not a tracking service. It is intended for the benefit of the sender, not the recipient..
OVERSEAS: Charge will be determined by weight and country. I ship USPS Air Letter and Parcel Post or Economy Surface. Most single albums properly boxed will cost between $11.35 & $14.00 for Air Letter Post to most overseas destinations. I am not responsible for any loss or damage on uninsured parcels. Registered mail is available for Air Letter Post ONLY and cost $7.50. For those that request insurance, I must ship Parcel Post, not Letter Post. Parcel Post includes free insurance up to about $80.00 and will cover only that amount indicated on Customs form. Import duty, taxes or other monetary requirements associated with destination country are the buyers responsibility.

All records are professionally packaged and shipped in my custom designed heavy duty cardboard mailers with stiff cardboard flats. You will not find a better quality LP mailer! Larger shipments are all shipped in new boxes designed to accomodate records and packaging.

RECORD GRADING LP'S
I place emphasis on play grade, maintain the highest professional standards, do spot check play grading on all individual auction items and always provide an accurate visual grade and label appearance. I play grade on a quality system with a high end cartridge in order to maintain a strict and undisguised play grade. I always keep my grading simple and fair and will not subject my customers to a proliferation of meaningless grades. If a record plays between two grades I always apply the lesser grade, I don't create a grade in an attempt to articulate a borderline evaluation.
nm....near mint, superb play quality with little to no signs of visual wear and plays with little to no extraneous noise. I have learned from over 30 years of experience that "mint" is too strong a grade for a used record evaluation. The only records that qualify for a "mint" grade on my listings are my new unplayed and unhandled store stock items.
vg+...very good plus, excellent play quality with minor use and little to no overall visual wear. Any minor scuffs, light surface scratches, or blemishes do not affect play and play grade may have some very minor extraneous area noise.
vg....very good, very playable, probably with some extraneous surface noise. A slightly mishandled or well used record. May have visual scratches or blemish. I generally do not auction vg albums unless they are exceptional pieces and highly sought after items.

I use standard record grading abbreviations and include cover grade within each description. I open, clean and inspect all suspect sealed older albums.
