BLUE SKIES

with the 

SPIZZWINKS(?)

of 

YALE UNIVERSITY

Private 1957 lp


Check out the SPIZZWINKS(?) web site to get the full story (well, stories) of their creation and history, etc.

Great a capella, with my favorite “Benny’s from Heaven”


This lp still has the Yale co-op sticker on it.  Also, has a circle on the back cover from a beverage ... and, that is probably left over from a Winks study session while listening back in the day?


VG(+) This was played often back in the day, but plays nicely with some background in spots, but never close to overpowering.

Cover is strong and sturdy, but does show the dulling and shelf wear of its decades, plus that water circle.


SEE ALL THE PHOTOS!


Get it here ... ‘because Wal Mart doesn’t stock this!

 

JUST A REMINDER:  A lot of the items I’ve sold lately are won (or lost) within the last 10 seconds of the bidding.  So make sure you make your maximum bid early enough to make it stick for that last few seconds!


Good Luck Bidding ... early or late!!

Important (and wordy) Comments on Records:

      I am a vinyl hoarder more than a seller, but due to space limitations, Ms. zeboxer and I (mostly Ms. zeboxer) are going to be finding new homes for a few records (she says a few thousand). These records were obtained over the years as I collected from friends who no longer listened, or from estates.  In most estates, the purchase is all or none, so to get the records I wanted, I had to get hundreds. 

      Whenever possible, I will tell you how records sound to me using Dual/Grado/Definitive Technology system.  Every vinyl listener is different, and while I appreciate the best, I am also tolerant and even enjoy a little of the vinyl pops and such.  I rate/describe the record as I hear it, and will not intentionally mislead anyone.  

         I use the Goldmine as a guide, with my play grading description giving you the details.  My VG+/Nm borderline is an excellent TimeWarp worthy record.  My VG+ is a great sounding record.  My VG has sporadic background, but it is never overpowering.  My G+ will play without skips, but noise will be more than sporadic, and too much for a VG.  I will explain exceptions.  If it plays better or worse than it looks visually, I will tell you.

        I give you the details of the cover, and let the photos show the condition.  

I anticipate the mails will try to break everything I send, so I always pack accordingly.  Records are packed to maintain the integrity of the disc and cover, in record mailers (often two of ‘em) for individual or small lots.



NOW, THE FINE PRINT!


NEW CUSTOMERS

Welcome to Zeboxer; I hope to see you again and again! If you are new to eBay and without an established bidding history, please respond to my e-mail asking you to verify your bid. That way, I know that there is a real person behind the bid and not a freshly hijacked identity. Sorry for the bother, but since my own account was hijacked once, I am now more careful than I used to be. I recommend that you exercise caution, as well. That’s all!


SATISFACTION GUARANTEE

Your satisfaction with my auction item is guaranteed!  My intention is to accurately describe and picture the item(s) so that you find your purchase exactly or better than listed; however, should circumstances warrant, I will gladly refund your purchase price (minus shipping costs) if:

1.  Buyer e-mails upon receipt that item is being returned, and

2.  Buyer promptly ships item back in same condition as sent.

Of course, if my listing was flawed, refund will include shipping costs.



SHIPPING

I do not try to make money on shipping.  I factor in delivery confirmation, as well as the time and materials needed for quality packing. I generally ship records by USPS media mail, but will use other shipping services if size, costs, tracking, or speed dictate. Use the calculator to determine shipping and contact me if you want specific service. Delivery confirmation is included in shipping cost when available.


PAYMENT

Paypal is now the only solicited method of payment for ebay purchases. 


INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS 

Due to new postal policies and lack of guarantees, and a recent three-month delivery of an lp, you must be aware that 

USPS First Class Mail International is slow and risky.  

Post Office and US Federal Law requires declaration of eBay invoice amount on customs and insurance forms. 

INTERNATIONAL BUYERS PLEASE CONTACT BEFORE YOU PAY IN ORDER TO FINALIZE SHIPPING COSTS AND TO MAKE SURE OF THE CUSTOMS RESTRICTIONS IF ANY. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO BE AWARE OF AND ABIDE BY YOUR COUNTRY’S IMPORT LAWS! I WILL NOT SHIP ITEMS ON THE PROHIBITION LIST!

I WILL NOT FALSIFY CUSTOMS FORMS!


FEEDBACK

I leave feedback after the customer has paid. Feedback continues to be an integral part of the eBay process. Please read my history of Zeboxer sales and service. I am proud of my reputation, and thank you, my customers, for building it. 


Payment is expected within seven (7) days.


AGAIN, THANK YOU, AND GOOD LUCK!
