Combined Shipping Discount ATTENTION: USPS MEDIA MAIL RATES INCREASED JANUARY 1, 2024. All my new listings as of January 25, 2024 will reflect a new Media Mail Flat Rate of $5 for the first CD, and $5.50 for the first LP (including the first Double LP) and an additional .50 for each LP or CD added to the purchase. Always a one business day turnaround. Keep in mind that shipping fees include boxes, packaging materials and handling time. LP mailers now cost about .80 each when bought in bulk. The Priority Mail rates are actual USPS fees based on weight and your address so combined shipping is calculated by eBay., plus .50 handling fee per additional item when using Priority Mail. If there is an adjustment in your favor to shipping charges after your payment I will refund you the savings. Place items in your cart and request a total before checking out. If you prefer a different shipping method, please contact me before completing your transaction and request the total and I will make the adjustment. But be advised when selecting Media Mail, any damage or loss due to USPS mishandling is not covered by USPS and you will have to seek a refund from eBay with their Buyer Protection Plan with the USPS listed as AT FAULT. International Shipping International buyers take note, you will pay the initial postage to have it shipped to the eBay International Shipping Center in Kentucky, and an additional amount to get it to you overseas. eBay calculates the entire cost and adds it to your purchase before checkout. Be advised, once it arrives at the Shipping Center it is completely OUT OF MY CONTROL and I will not cover any loss or damage after that. Packaging Your Records & CDs CDs are packed in padded envelopes or similar. Records are packed in LP mailers with sufficient extra packing material. I take every reasonable precaution to securely pack your records. For older sleeves with potential for seem splitting during shipping, I will pack the vinyl in a separate sleeve to avoid splitting during shipping. Unfortunately though, once it is out of my hands, the USPS is sometimes careless in handling the package, especially Media Mail packages, which are sorted at the USPS with heavy boxes of books. Unless you choose USPS Priority Mail, which the USPS includes insurance up to $100 value, your package via Media Mail is NOT insured for loss or damage during USPS delivery, and any such claim would have to be made through the eBay Buyer Protection Plan with the USPS listed as AT FAULT. Returns I accept returns if you are not satisfied with your record purchase. See the "Returns" conditions for details. I do NOT pay for return shipping. On some occasions I will not accept returns for a record that is very rare. I cannot take the chance that someone will buy it, swap out the vinyl and then ship it back. Sorry, that happened once and I cannot allow it to happen again. Records listed as "No Returns Accepted" fall into this category. So please look at the pics carefully before you purchase it and contact me if you want me to play test expensive records before you purchase them.

Record Play Grade Summaries: Audible Surface Noise (ASN) is defined as any single occurrence or combination of underlying hiss, crackle, ticks, or pops. ( *I use " + " and " - " from G to VG- when one side is better than the other side or its a "borderline" judgement.) NM: Rare occurrences, if any, of minimal audible surface noise (ASN) and only during some quiet passages or between some tracks. Plays nearly flawlessly even for the most demanding audiophile listener. EX: May have occasional minor audible surface noise (ASN) but only during some quiet passages or between some tracks. VG+: Expect occasional minor to mild audible surface noise (ASN) during some quiet passages and between some tracks, but rarely overpowers the music. May have slight warp but does not adversely effect on playback experience. VG: Expect mild to moderate audible surface noise (ASN) during most quiet passages and between most tracks. There may also be an occasional series of ticks or occasional pops. No skips or repeats. May have slight warp but there is no significant adverse effect on playback experience. G+: Plays through without major multiple occurrences of skipping or repeats, but has significant moderate to heavy audible surface noise (ASN), including crackling, ticks, pops and underlying hiss unless overpowered the music. G or F (Fair): Has several skips or repeats caused by any combination of warps or deep scratches and other flaws that penetrate the vinyl surface. Has significant audible surface noise (ASN) present throughout most of the playing experience. Visual Record Grading (Vinyl/Cover) *I use " + " and " - " from G to VG- when one side is better than the other side or its a borderline judgment. In the end, record grading is a subjective process, so please take everything into account: the description, the pictures, and the visual grade before making your purchase. I make every attempt to grade accurately but one man's VG+ might be another person's VG. Some records are play tested and I provide a separate play grade. Please read the play grade definitions carefully above, and visual grade definitions below. If you are interested in purchasing an expensive record, send me a request to test it first if I have not already provided a Play Grade (PG). All records are cleaned with Disc Doctor Miracle Record Cleaner or similar and are inspected and visually graded for condition using a modified Goldmine Record Grading System (see below) before being listed. I do not have the time to test play every record, but if you are seriously interested in a rare or expensive record please contact me and I will play test it for you first. I try to include pictures of potentially penetrating scratches or the worse visual flaws, and spot check playing the worse looking ones. I have an excellent feedback rating and many people comment that my record grading is very accurate if not under-graded. If you receive your record and disagree with my description , or discover a skip or other serious defect that I did not note in the description, please contact me prior to leaving feedback and we will work out a return or partial refund if you decide to keep it. Sealed (S) Sealed but that does not mean Mint because there may be hidden damage to the vinyl that will only be known if you open it. Near Mint (NM) In layman's terms, a Near Mint record means overall it almost looks like you just bought it at the record store new but it may have one or two very minor flaws, do not expect it to be perfect and without any minor surface flaws that do not affect playback. The record should show no obvious signs of wear. An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeable similar defects. No cut-out holes, either. And of course, the same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves and the like. Basically, an LP in near mint condition nearly looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and removed the shrink wrap. Excellent (EX) I include an EX rating for records that overall look NM, that is they look almost like you just bought them new with original sheen and luster but they may have a few minor surface "marks" or surface "scuffs/skids" or even one or two hairlines, but mostly DO NOT effect playback. Records graded EX may still have occasional minor audible surface noise (A.S.N.) during some quiet passages and between some tracks.The covers also look new but may have a few very minor flaws such as a ding on a corner, or very very minor ring wear but otherwise looks almost brand new. These records and covers fall in between VG+ and NM. Very Good Plus (VG+) A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and will have some slight surface scuffs/skids or very fine "hairline" scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences other than an occasional tick. There may be some crackling especially during quiet passages and in between tracks but generally does not over power the music, it may be reduced after professionally deep cleaned. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK". You may hear occasional minor to mild audible surface noise (A.S.N.) during some quiet passages and between some tracks. The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. The center hole will not have been misshapen by repeated play. Picture sleeves and LP inner sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount. In general, if not for a couple things wrong with it, this would be EX. All but the most mint-crazy collectors will find a Very Good Plus record highly acceptable. Very Good (VG) Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise and crackling will be evident upon playing and persistent during soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, and will sometimes overpower the music. Expect to hear mild to moderate audible surface noise (A.S.N). during quiet passages and between tracks. Groove wear will start to be more noticeable, losing most of the original sheen and luster, and with numerous, surfaces flaws such as swipes, scuffs/kids, light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will occasionally affect the sound. There may even be one or two deeper scratches that cause pops and minor skips. Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers, showing more pronounced ring, edge, and corner wear and ding, and shelf wear which looks like "snow" on the front and sometimes even the back cover. Thee may be a seam split as well. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time. Good (G), Good Plus (G+) (My G is what other sellers call "Fair") Good does not mean Bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without major skipping. But it will have significant surface noise, crackling, and scratches and visible groove wear with most of the original sheen gone and the overall look of the vinyl being flat and dull. A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Ring wear, shelf wear "snow" and other defects will start to overwhelm the object. It is a common item, you'll probably find another copy in better shape eventually. Pass it up. But, if it's something you have been seeking for years, and the price is right, get it...but keep looking to upgrade. I only list items that have a G or G+ rating for either the cover or the vinyl but not both. It is intended for people who are seeking to replace just one of these, but not both. You have a fine record but you need to replace the cover or vice versa. Poor (P) The record is cracked, badly warped, and won't play through without skipping or repeating. The picture sleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and writing. The LP cover barely keeps the LP inside it. Inner sleeves are fully seam split, crinkled, and written upon. Except for impossibly rare records otherwise unattainable, records in this condition should be bought or sold for no more than a few cents each. I only list items that have a P rating for either the cover or the vinyl but not both. It is intended for people who are seeking to replace just one of these, but not both. You have a fine record but you need to replace the cover or vice versa.
