PLEASE NOTE****If you do not have the funds to pay for an item immediately (and nothing I have is expensive)
or are not serious, please do not bid. I recently had a few people who bid on something and then disappeared once the auction ended (never paid nor responded to emails, etc.), wasting my time and screwing things up for others who may have wanted the item.
As you probably know, the lines at the Post Office are horrible these days (at least in big metro areas). If just one person doesn't pay promptly (within a day or two of the auction ending), it messes everything up, forcing me have to make a second trip to the P.O. and wait in line for another hour.
MEDIA MAIL can take up to two weeks, though usually not that long. I make sure to get everything out in the mail as soon as possible (2-3 business days), but after that it's in the Post Office's hands. I recently had someone complaining because he didn't receive his record like 4 days after paying for it and was blaming me for the slowness of the US postal system (even though I had it in the mail 2 days after he paid). Media Mail is cheap but slow (all mail is slow right now due to budget constraints and the whole vaccine shipping priority).
CONDITION/GRADING
Unless otherwise noted, almost all vinyl is in excellent (VG++) shape and from my private collection. All records are handled with the utmost care, and the only ones that are not close to perfect are ones that I acquired used along the way (or that I've owned for decades).
Of course some records may have minuscule manufacturing hairlines or "cloudy" spots that are noticeable only when held up to bright sunlight. I mention this because I usually view records in a ray of sunlight when visually inspecting them (and I also play them) before listing. A lot of new records look like this, especially some labels from Italy and Jamaica.
Regardless, I will make a note of any blemish I notice.
I try to grade all records as honestly possible and usually on the more conservative side of
what I see some others do for similar conditions. Hopefully this is reflected in my ratings. Please contact me if you have any questions.
NM (I generally don't mark NM unless recently opened and almost new; something purchased recently and only played 2 or 3 times)
VG++ (in very excellent, often what many others would mark as NM condition)
VG+ (in excellent condition with possible light signs of wear or a few hairline or very slight and inaudible surface marks)
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 that)
SHIPPING
Records sent Media Mail in USA. I live in Denver, CO.
*
Vinyl is removed from cover for shipping and sent in sturdy record mailers.
*Items are sent out
within 2-3 business days upon receiving payment.
I will post a tracking confirmation number after visiting the post office.
Please note that Media Mail may take up to 2 WEEKS! $4.00 US LPs (includes Delivery Confirmation) (US ONLY)
COMBINED SHIPPING: I will definitely do combined shipping, but only up to 3 (maybe 4) LPs (depending on thickness/weight of records) because my LP mailers can only safely hold that amount). I can toss a couple of 7"s in with an LP for no extra charge at all.
4 or more albums will usually equal a second box and a new postage fee of $4. (Sometimes I'll have a larger box on hand and can send as one package. It just depends. I'm not a store or anything and usually I just have a stack of standard LP mailers that I bought.)
Add records to cart and then click "request total from seller" (I'll send a combined shipping invoice.)
**Sometimes the eBay system doesn't figure postage correctly (or at all) when I do combined shipping, so be sure to wait for the invoice from me. I may have to mark it in "additional fees" (but I put zero for the postage box if so). COMBINED SHIPPING PRICES: Up to
3 45's/singles or
2 LP/12" albums $4.00 (I lowered the price since tracking numbers are now "free" at the USPS). 3-4 albums (or heavy double LPs): $5.00 (if they are light I can sometimes do $4.50). (includes Delivery Confirmation)
***Wait for an invoice to be sent to you before paying (for combined orders). Click on "Request Total from Seller" in the shopping cart
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. There are certain countries that have notorious reputations for substandard postal service. It's a risk for some places, and the risk is yours.
$13 Canada ($8 EPs)
$20 World ($12-$14 EPs)
2-3 LPs to Europe averages $26. It's insane. It's barely worth ordering international unless you desperately want an item.
Order internationally at your own risk! (I will be 100% honest and pack safely on my end.)
__________________________________________________________________________________________ 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 (I can't stand when people start at 99 cents but actually have a minimum bid of like $20 or something).
Thanks again!
