—Shipping and Shop Policies—
$4.00 flat-rate Domestic MEDIA MAIL Shipping for 12”/LPs
I DO COMBINED SHIPPING FOR BOTH DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL ORDERS.
MESSAGE ME IF EBAY IS SAYING OTHERWISE.
SHIPPING 1-3 LPs COSTS AROUND $21-25 USD - Cost is the price of postage. Varies per country. I do not charge more than actual postage fees.
USPS is my preferred shipping method but other services/couriers (DHL, etc.) can be arranged but may come with a fee. Message me first to arrange shipping other than USPS.
Grading, Shipping and Returns
I try to grade conservatively and I adapt this conservative approach to Goldmine Standards but I do use EX and VG- when needed because I feel Goldmine grading is not descriptive enough compared to any other grading system and not always descriptive enough. NM basically looks and sounds like a mint album while EX would look like a mint or near mint album with maybe one superficial mark or light scuff/hairline or the briefest lightest spot of surface noise or one or two light pops thru both sides. I also try to provide well-recorded audio samples of the exact item for sale. You can hear the grade before buying but I promise you won't be disappointed.
When shipping, I use new professional LP or 45 mailers along with sturdy inserts. Every item will come in a clear plastic outer sleeve, the media will be removed from the sleeve and any included inner sleeve and placed into a new white inner sleeve to prevent seam splits.
I accept returns up to 30 days and to put any fears of a new seller to bed, I will pay for return shipping. If you have any questions or concerns, message me and I will respond promptly.
About Me
I have worked at record stores, have sold at record shows and I have sold on and off on Discogs since it's beginning. My eBay account is relatively new but if you see my feedback and my inventory, you will see the experience I have as a collector and record seller.
Also, somewhat musically inclined myself, having started multiple sh*tty noise rock or indie bands, having multiple bad electronic projects and hosting and holding down the decks at a few vinyl DJ nights.
UPCOMING DJ SETS/SHOW (Detroit Area)
Hey, I am also DJing monthly at Tangent Gallery in Detroit this summer. The night’s called Shave The Industry and I’m hosting it with a good friend/Detroit bartender superstar S.B..
It’s a very pro-service industry/entertainment industry event because those are thee unsung heroes (slight exaggeration) of Detroit and most large cities. As a long-time ex-bartender, I am a bit biased though.
So if you have your vaccine shots and want to hear some cool records get spun by myself, have a Daiquiri or two made by one of the best bartenders/originals in Detroit, dance and puff on a little tree outside under the stars on aa beautiful patio/garden and do some premiere Detroit people-watching, come on thru.
