** I am moving out of state soon, and this may be the last time I list a lot of my items, including the contents of this listing.  I will be getting rid of a lot of things to lighten my load for the move.  I've significantly lowered the prices of many of the items to help them move.  I may even have some new things listed, for a one-time shot.  So this may be your first AND last chance at some of my store's items, FYI.
** YES, I GLADLY COMBINE SHIPPING.  You are responsible for reading and understanding the ENTIRE LISTING - including my full shipping policy - before bidding/buying or contacting me.  No exceptions.
Item Description: This listing is for an opened but unplayed vinyl copy of weezer's 2002 fourth album, Maladroit.  A quick follow-up (almost exactly a year later) to Green, it's weezer's most "metal" record, full of heavy riffs and fiery guitar solos.  the shred-lover in me LOVES this album.  Contains the hit single "Keep Fishin'", among many other great songs.  Read onward for more info on this copy and other weezer items that I have up for sale at eBay.
This is a basic release of the album; I'm not really aware of any special versions (colored vinyl, etc.).  It has never been played.  It was opened only for inspection, and to display in a record picture frame.  It includes the original shrink wrap, which still has the hype sticker.
TL;DR... If you're a serious weezer collector, you would do well to see my other listings.  I have hundreds of toys and pop culture items to offer, but if you go to my store (aka "see seller's other listings" and then search "weezer"), you'll find other records and collectibles, including fan club materials.  From the summer of 1994 through about 2016, I was one of the biggest fans you could possibly meet, and collected all things weezer during that time.  I was a fanclub member "back in the day", knew Mykel and Carli personally, and saw the band 25 times total, including five times on the Pinkerton tour, and three times as Goat Punishment.  I'm on the cover of The Good Life single, I attended the video shoots for both Beverly Hills and Troublemaker, and have met 6 of the 7 members of the band multiple times (for some reason, never chased down Mikey, and of course will never be able to now).  I was an established boardie at allthingsweezer.com from about 2007-2014, and contributed quite a bit to weezerpedia when it was still new (under the handle BringHomeTheTukey at both sites).  I live near Los Angeles, and in my youth, I had the time and energy to chase the band around their home town.  I tell you all this not to brag, but to illustrate that the items that I offer are not only legit, but well-cared-for.  Know that you're not buying from someone just trying to make a quick buck, but from someone who has had genuine love for the band, and valued these items for years.  So why am I selling it all?  I guess you could say that, to some degree, I've fallen out of love with the band; while I still have mad love for the music and cherish my memories of fandom of yesteryear, I've become frustrated with the wild inconsistency of quality of recent releases.  I haven't even seen the band live since 2015.  Additionally, at this point in my life, I've decided to downsize and let a lot of physical possessions go, especially if they're redundant.  I never listen to vinyl, and as long as I have the CDs, why am I still holding on to this stuff?  I'm moving out of state soon, so it's time to pass this stuff on to another collector who will enjoy owning it more than I currently do.
Serious buyers only.  Please do not waste my time by placing the order if you do not intend to pay.  Non-paying buyers will be reported to eBay.  I am also not fielding offers at this time (even if I've failed to disable the "make offer" feature).  Messages making an offer below the starting bid will be ignored, and any offers to do business outside of eBay will be instantly reported.
Shipping is $9.99 in the US for insured Media Mail.  Item(s) will be well-packed. Sorry, no international buyers, unless you take advantage of eBay's international shipping service.  See my full combined shipping policy below.
Please ask any questions you may have before bidding.  I may not be able to answer questions within the final 24 hours of the listing, so make sure to ask ask early as possible.  Bidders are responsible for knowing the contents of this listing.  Please allow up to 24 hours response to any questions.  If you have won two or more auctions, please wait to be invoiced after auction end, which can take up to 48 hours.  Payment is expected within three days of invoice.  We reserve up to three days after payment to ship.  The sooner you pay, the sooner I can ship.
** COMBINED SHIPPING POLICY: Be sure to 'add to cart' until you have everything you want, and then send me a request for an invoice.  If you pay ahead for all items AND all shipping, not only will have to wait patiently for me to refund the difference in shipping, on my time, and at my convenience, but you will be refunded LESS 10%, which is what eBay charges me.  I will not lose money because you don't know how, or are too impatient, to fill a cart and ask for an invoice.
** WARNING: Any messages offering something lower than the starting bid will be ignored.  Any messages asking me to do business outside of eBay will also be ignored, you will be blocked from bidding on my auctions, and you will be reported to eBay.  I hate to have to do this, but I have received a high number of these types of messages, despite virtually every one of my listings stating not to do so - I guess no one reads listings carefully any more!  Answering a lot of questions that are already answered by the listing is taxing on my already precious time.  If you don't have the patience to read the listing carefully, I don't have the patience to answer your message.
