SHIPPING: Record and jacket stored and ship in poly sleeves. Ships via USPS Media Mail promptly and well-protected in a cardboard record mailer with record outside of cover to prevent split seams, etc. etc. I use recycled packaging materials whenever possible. MY PROCESS: Before listing, I clean the records using a makeshift hydro system that gets all but the most stubborn specks of dust and debris from the grooves, then I wipe-dust and blow-out the jackets and inner sleeves. I play test them and examine surfaces under natural and bright incandescent light and list all visible blemishes. I use the Discogs.com database to identify pressings using matrix numbers. After photographing all components and taking close-ups of any flaws, I store records and jackets in poly sleeves. Then, if I?ve determined that the album is in sellable condition, I document everything in the listing I post to eBay. I try to follow the Goldmine Standard as best I can when grading. This is a one-person operation, and I?m a collector, too, so I try to sell from a buyer's perspective and do my best to offer a personalized service. So if upon receiving the record you feel I've missed something and/or my grading is off the mark, please let me know ASAP and we'll sort it out. This isn't an exact science and, as with all perceived realities, condition is relative, but I want you to be happy with your purchase, so if you are not, let's get it right. COMBINED SHIPPING: Check out my other listings for more Rock, Metal, Punk, New Wave, Alternative, R&B/Soul, Hip Hop, Jazz, etc. I happily combine shipping. I also have lots of CDs, books and DVDs. OFFERS: I will entertain offers, but I don't use eBay's automated system. Please no lowballers, though - you're just gonna waste both of our time. Any other questions? Please ask! -- -- -- + + + -- -- --
