Bob Marley and the Wailers    2 lp   Babylon By Bus.   Island Records       ISLV 11    Die cut cover, custom inner sleeves.

Records are visually graded under good light source, using the Goldmine standard.  If a very rare record is being listed with lots of wear, I will have to play grade it, and will mention that in the listing. I know and love the Goldmine standard, and have been using it for 30 years.  I don't like sellers that just list the grade, without the detail. I try to list the various defects (if any) so you should not be surprised when you get your record.

I will charge media mail shipping on one record, and  if you buy more than one I will not charge any additional shipping.  This may require some trickery to get through the checkout process. In the past I have had to put the overage in the box being shipped. Records over $200 I will pay insurance and bump it up to Priority Mail.

U.S.A. sales only. I do not do international sales.  I am not engaged in business. I am selling my personal records for my kids tuition.  I sometimes can't  answer email right away, but usually can answer within 24 hours.

 Shipping is a pain in the gluteus maximus, and the $3.09 media rate doesn't cover the time and material to box the records.  USPS is the only way I can ship. If these minimal rules don't agree with you, please don't bid!
