Both album and cover are in VG++ to NM shape with only the slightest signs of age or wear.

Thanks for looking!
CONDITION/GRADING
Unless otherwise noted, all vinyl is in excellent shape.  Of course some records may have minuscule manufacturing hairlines or "cloudy" spots that are noticeable only when held up to bright sunlight  (common in many Euro and indie pressings).  I mention this because I often view records in a ray of sunlight when visually inspecting them (and also play them) before listing.  A lot of new records look like this, especially Italian and Jamaican pressings.  I will make a note of any blemish I notice.
I grade all records honestly and almost always on the lower side of what I see some others do.  However, overly meticulous collectors or amateur record buyers should go elsewhere.  Contact me if you have any questions.


VG++ (in very excellent, often NM condition) (I generally don't mark NM just to stay on the safe side, but most things VG++ would pass as such)
VG+ (in excellent condition with possible light signs of wear or a few hairline or very slight and inaudible surface marks)(usually what others grade VG++)
VG (plays and looks great, but may have a couple of light surface marks and perhaps some light static here and there; covers may have light ring or shelf wear, and some discoloration (thought generally in pretty solid shape). Often what some sellers list as VG+
Will not bother with anything less than VG (and rarely even bother with VG)


SHIPPING
Records sent Media Mail in USA (unless other options requested); Vinyl is removed from cover for protection; records sent within 2-3 business days upon receiving payment.  
Please note that Media Mail can take up to 2 WEEKS!
The US Post Office just raised their rates again (as of Jan 2014)!!!  One album plus tracking comes out to between $4.15 - $4.50 (and that doesn't even include the boxing materials). 
I had to raise rates on 12" records, but 7"s are still the same (see combined pricing info below):
$4.50 US LPs (includes Delivery Confirmation) (US ONLY) $4.00 US EPs / 45s  (includes Delivery Confirmation) (US ONLY)
INTERNATIONAL
International shipping has become ridiculously expensive; worse, I've dealt with some shady people or with terrible postal services in certain countries.  Because of this, I will only sell internationally upon request and with the understanding that I am not responsible for any item once I send it out.  I am very honest  and will send you a US Custom's Number when I mail the package (this can sometimes be used to track a missing item).  There are certain  countries that have notorious reputations for substandard postal  service.  It's a risk for some places, and the risk is yours. 
No combined shipping for more than 3 albums international.  Sorry.  Here are the rates:
$13 Canada ($8 EPs)
$20 World ($14 EPs)  
Contact me with any questions regarding international shipping.  
I cannot pack more than 3 LPs in one record mailer box (price averages about $26 to Europe for 3 records)


COMBINED SHIPPING: 
I will do combined shipping in USA only, but only up to 3 records (because I send records out in LP mailers that only hold 3).   More than 3 albums equals a new box and a new postage fee of $4.   
Sometimes the Ebay system doesn't figure postage correctly (or at all) when I do combined shipping, so be sure to wait for and invoice from me. 3 albums is $5.50 Media Mail in the US (includes Delivery Confirmation).  3 EPs combined charge (Media Mail) is $5

***Wait for an invoice to be sent to you before paying (for combined orders).


I sell albums from my collection at reasonable starting bids (for what they are realistically worth) assuming you have a good chance at being the only bidder, often making it the selling price (and I don't have to worry about "buy it now" fees).  Money from selling these records goes towards buying new records!
Thanks again!
