Vintage 5 LP Lot #23: Firestone Presents Your Favorite Christmas Carols (Volume 1 and Volume 5), Firestone Presents Your Favorite Christmas Music (Volume 4 and Volume 6), Firestone Presents Your Christmas Favorites (Volume 7)
Comments: 
These records were all cleaned and then fully play tested from start to finish. These classic records, full of classy Christmas music, were issued in the 1960s. I want to point out right away that one of the records skipped once - annoying, but not that annoying. Details below.
The visual condition of the records varies from VG to VG+. All are glossy with light surface scuffs. A few light scratches are seen here and there. The labels all look good. The records all reproduce the music with full, rich sound with varying levels of background record surface noise and sometimes some light ticks and clicks. Surface noise was tolerable even in the worst case in my opinion and didn't prevent full enjoyment of the music.
The record jackets are all in VG or VG+ condition. They mostly look good aside from some issues with the Volumes 4 and 6 jackets. I have placed them each in new, poly outer protective sleeves to help minimize further wear. Most jackets show various kinds of wear on the surfaces, edges and corners. Most have writing on the backs of the covers. The inner sleeves are mostly all replacements.
Following is a list of the records included with further condition and play test comments: Volume 1 (1962): Front cover looks VG+. Back looks more VG. Some edge and corner wear. The mono record looks VG+. It is glossy with some light surface scuffs. Background record surface noise is mild with occasional (but not many) ticks / clicks. Volume 4 (1965): Front cover looks VG+ when looked at straight-on, but there is serious wear on the edges and the text on the spine has been obliterated. On the back, some of the edges of the pasted on white liner notes are gone. I don't know if somebody did that on purpose or if it was from an unfortunate manufacturing accident. The stereo record looks mostly VG+ (but it's not totally). It is glossy with some light surface scuffs, a short scratch and a speck. The short scratch in "The Christmas Song" causes the needle to skip once during an instrumental bridge. It's unfortunate, but doesn't sound too alarming either. There is a small white speck embedded in the vinyl in "Ave Maria". I tried hard, but could not remove the speck and it ends up producing four ticks during play. Now, having said all that bad stuff, let me just say that this record sounds fantastic! Background record surface noise is very mild (except as indicated) and the sound quality is superb! That's why it is still included in this lot. I was able to overlook the couple of very short flawed moments and still enjoy the listen immensely. Volume 5 (1966): The cover looks VG+ with a little wear on the edges. The vinyl looks VG+. It's glossy with light surface scuffs. Background record surface noise was mostly mild with occasional light ticks. Volume 6 (1967): The cover is in VG condition. It encountered a damp storage environment at some point. In the upper right area there is some damage from being stuck to another record jacket in storage and there is some extra discoloration on the back side. You may notice a faint musty scent. The vinyl is in glossy VG condition with some scuffs and a few light surface scratches. Background record surface noise was mild apart from occasional ticks. There are some persistent ticks early on side 1. Volume 7 (1968): The cover looks mostly VG+, but there are some worn spots on the spine. The vinyl is glossy VG+ with a few light scuffs a a few short, light scratches. General background record surface noise is mild while the music is playing. There are occasional light ticks and a few louder clicks. The music sounds absolutely beautiful and the sound produced by this record is of excellent quality. Shipping Notes: A substantial portion of the cost for this lot covers the postage and packing materials required. I'll pack these well for safe shipping with the records tucked into the outer sleeves, outside of the jackets. I generally pack and ship items sold right away and hand them over to the post office at the earliest opportunity (sometimes same day, sometimes next day).
Please see the photos to check out the condition for yourself to the extent possible. Zoom right in and have a good look.

For items to be delivered outside of the USA, buyers should be aware that any customs fees / taxes that are required by your government are your responsibility and are not covered by the cost of the item or the shipping charges.

I promise to pack your item securely, no matter what it is. Everything I ship gets packed well, so don't worry about a thing. 
If appropriate I will add insurance coverage. Sometimes I will add signature tracking (USA) when your item is shipped. Signature tracking ensures that the postal service doesn't leave your valuable item unattended on your doorstep out in the sun or rain - it has to be handed over face to face. If you order something rare and/or worth a bit, be prepared to have to accept delivery in person.

When multiple items are shipped together, I can almost always give you a better deal on the shipping cost compared to the individual shipping costs. I promise to give you the best rate possible based on the items purchased and the shipping method required.
For "Buy It Now" items (most of what I offer), simply add each item that you want to your shopping cart. When ready to commit to buying, request a total from me from your cart and I'll send an invoice as soon as I can. Since I'm not a computer and I do other things like sleep and take the dogs for walks, you might not receive an immediate response, but I will get back to you as soon as possible. If you decide to pay for items you want individually instead of requesting a total from the shopping cart, I will promptly send back whatever money I can for a shipping discount. Some items are not compatible for combined shipping.  Combining shipping might require changing the shipping method or increase packaging materials expense.  A few items that I offer are not eligible for combined shipping.  Of course it is ok to ask about combined shipping costs up front. You have to tell me exactly what you intend to buy and where it will be shipped. I can't always give an exact cost, but I can at least give you an estimate. I reserve the right to limit the number or total value of items that I'm willing to send in a single package. For international sales I use ebay's international shipping program. Combined shipping depends on the ebay shipping program rules in place at the time of shipment. It is possible that no combined shipping discount is available for international orders. ************* End of long-winded answers to hypothetical questions ***********
