Come Here + Will We Meet Again
US (Sunbeam 104) 1958


G

Original US pressing; record might play g+; small writing on label

NOTE: This is a used record. It probably has some visible scratches, as will any record graded VG+ or lower. VG+ = "Used but not abused" -- At VG+ the scratches will be mostly lite and the music will predominate over slight background noise; at 'VG' there will be more feelable marks and more noticeable clicks and pops and by VG- and lower the noise might occasionally equal the music; by 'G+', Fair, and Poor, the noise more and more will overshadow the music but I rarely sell any record graded lower than VG-; please see 'Grading' section below for more info.

SHIPPING -- In 2013 USPS International Rates increased substantially (and they are set to increase again in 2014).
I will gladly combine multiple items for a SHIPPING DISCOUNT; when you are ready to pay, just ask me for a "Combined Invoice" -- not necessary for US customers because of Free Shipping.

I always separate record from cover before shipping and use padded inserts for extra support.

International Rates: FIRST CLASS starts at $17-19 for 1st disc (Canada from $11-13).

NOTE: Import duties, taxes, import charges, VAT, and any other Customs fees are not included in the item price nor in my shipping charges. These import / customs charges are the buyer's responsibility -- Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional charges will be prior to bidding/buying. These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up -- do not confuse them for additional shipping charges. I do not mark merchandise below value for Customs, nor do I mark items as "gifts" -- US and International government regulations prohibit this.

US Domestic Rates: Calculated by the USPS & eBay Checkout; for ONE LP: MEDIA MAIL starts at $4 / 1st disc + about $0.50 each additional; -- PRIORITY MAIL rates depend on zip code: approximately $8-13 for 1-2 discs plus $1-2 per additional disc.
Packages will be shipped only to a CONFIRMED PAYPAL ADDRESS and your ebay address and paypal ship-to address MUST MATCH.

Canada: Please ask me to send you an invoice or the eBay Checkout System will overcharge you for First-Class mail.

US Media Mail can take up to 21 days for delivery!
I ship each business day. All packages shipped within the US include Tracking.

PRESSING: Many records are 'Original US Pressing' -- this does NOT guarantee 'FIRST' Pressing! -- If you want the absolute First Pressing of a record, please tell me what variations of label or cover that you're looking for. I will check to confirm before we proceed. Thanks!

GRADING = COVER / RECORD -- Example: VG+ / M- = Cover is VG+ and Record is M-
VISUAL GRADING ONLY! (occasional play-grading will be noted); my grades represent my slightly modified version of the Goldmine grading system.
I do NOT have a VPI cleaning machine; on rare occasions an LP could do with a good deep cleaning.

RECORD Grading from Highest To Lowest (visual only):
1) SEALED = 'SS' / Still Sealed; unopened; guaranteed for Cover Only
2) M = Mint; like new; open but unplayed record, cd, or tape (I almost never use this grade)
3) M- = Mint Minus (or 'Near Mint' / NM); almost like new (but NOT flawless, not 'perfect'); only 1 or 2 very tiny smudges and only a very rare tic or pop; my highest grade for used records
4) VG++ or EX: has some marks or scratches but few and just lite; an occasional tick or pop; very occasional slight background noise
5) VG+ = 'used but not abused' (Very Good Plus): more lite marks & a few lighter and/or smaller scratches; some noise but still mostly just background: the music still predominates
6) VG = Very Good; much-played used record; will have scratches: mostly lite but a couple could be deeper; noise increases and in a few spots might be equal to the music
7) G = Good; very used: probably still playable but; will have more scratches than VG and some deep scratches and will play with noise most or all of the time; probably won't skip or sticker but not guaranteed against skips or sticks -- sold 'As Is'
8) F or P = Fair or Poor; record will be unplayable with excess noise, deep scratches, skips, sticks, etc.; for filler only and/or for cover only; sold 'As Is'

COVER Grading: M- = looks almost like new; EX = VG++ = shows slight wear: may have very lite ring and/or very small rubs and/or very small corner bumps and/or very lite wear and/or tiny seam split(s); VG+ = used but not abused: more ring and/or more pronounced marks and/or bumps and/or seam wear/splits; for VG and G covers, blemishes increase in number and severity. -- LABEL is within '+/-' of the Record grade unless noted. 'Unplayed' means I opened a Still Sealed item for inspection only.

ABBREVIATIONS - common: bb = bubble; cb = corner(s) bent or bumped; cc = cut corner; co = cutout; coh = cutout hole; rw = ringwear; scr = scratch; slt = slight or 'small': less than 2 square inches; stkr = sticker; stn = stain; tiny = Less than 1 square inch; tos = tape on seam; woc = writing on cover.

Every LP includes its original cover and an inner sleeve (usually white paper).

QUESTIONS and PHOTOS: I work out of my home but my inventory is not stored here. Therefore, it may take 3-4 days for me to answer your question; it will take even longer (if I have time at all) to post photos or song listings. I usually just don't have time to honor requests for full track listings (there are many resources online for that); if you want to make sure a particular song is on an album, I can let you know that.

International Instructions

Full Value Will Be Declared for Customs!! I will not mark any package as 'gift'. ~~ All orders are shipped in ONE package ~~
Your eBay address and PayPal address MUST MATCH. Your Phone Number is REQUIRED FOR P.O. BOX.

USPS First-Class Mail International (might not be used, depending on destination and if total package value is more than $50-75) -- 1st Disc = $17-19 + $4-5 for each additional Disc; 2LP set = 2 Discs (ca. $21-24) -- NOTE: Most USPS First Class Mail does NOT offer online tracking.
UNINSURED packages are shipped AT THE BUYER'S RISK for loss or damage.
* At 5-6 Discs [package weight over 4 pounds], the USPS automatically changes the shipping service to Priority Mail (which incurs an ADDITIONAL $10-15 INCREASE IN COST).

Certain LPs, especially older ones in Gatefold covers or ones with booklets etc, are sometimes heavier than a regular LP so shipping could cost about $21 for a single LP.
For packages valued $50-75 or more and paid through PayPal, I might ship ONLY BY EXPRESS MAIL (depending on country) with tracking and full Insurance; cost is about $50 for one or two discs. Packages valued about $80 or more probably will ship ONLY by Priority Mail or Express Mail. You can decline Priority/Express Mail on such a package if you can use another payment method.

I do not use registered mail (paypal does not accept it for proof of delivery) - Please choose Express Mail or Priority Mail if you want tracking and/or insurance.

CANADA -- 1st Disc = $10.97 + $3-4 for each additional disc + ALSO: Ask for an Invoice BEFORE paying: eBay checkout will overcharge for First-Class to Canada.

If you use a PO BOX address, the US Postal Service requires you to provide a telephone number! Failure to do so WILL delay your order!

UNINSURED packages are shipped AT THE BUYER'S RISK for loss or damage.

PAYMENT: I must receive payment within 3 days after purchase (or end of auction). I WILL FILE A NON-PAYING BUYER claim with eBay after 5 days. If you want to continue browsing my listings, you must pay for items already won/bought in the previous 5 days: When you are finished bidding or buying, LET ME KNOW and I will send you an updated invoice and with the shipping discount for the additional items you've bought.

GUARANTEE & Refunds: When a return policy is offered, that record is guaranteed to be as graded (unless the ad says 'sold as is'). Compensation can be given as refund or credit, full or partial. All items must be returned in order to receive a full refund or full credit, and they must be in the same condition in which I sent them. Any Sealed record is guaranteed only for the cover unless you ask me to open it and check the record BEFORE shipping. Please contact me first if you are returning an item. All Returns must be made within 14 days of purchase. Sealed LPs must be returned still sealed. Refund will be issued after I receive and inspect the returned item. Return postage is rarely refundable.

Thanks for looking, Slainte! --Keith
