YOUR SATISFACTION IS OUR FIRST PRIORITY!


From Capitol Records (SKAO-2955) this is MUSIC FROM BIG PINK by THE BAND.  It is an original (first) stereo issue from July 1, 1968, on the rainbow label with star burst in matrix indicating California pressing.  The gatefold is EX+ showing a little fading but remaining clean and sturdy; all seams intact and strong spine that is nicely blocked with printing slightly off center. The labels show no spindle marks with bright colors (no fading, no abuse). The playing surfaces are solidly MINT.  You'll not find a more beautiful example for the bucks!

INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS PLEASE NOTE: We have an $8.00 handling fee which covers a portion of packing materials as well as time spent with Customs paperwork.   We use top-of-the-line packing because your box is traveling a great distance and we want it to arrive intact and undamaged; in addition, Customs paperwork is time consuming.   Please be aware this is one fee per order, that is, if you buy one record it’s $8.00, if you purchase 100 records it’s still just $8.00.   We could use cheaper materials and most sellers do but it’s important to us that you get the record in the same condition as it is when it leaves our hands.  Some say we lose sales because of this fee.   However, if you read our international feedback you find very happy customers -- customers who feel the extra dollars are well spent and come back to buy records from us again!   We appreciate your business and thank you for understanding.
