Why are my items so inexpensive?

The items up for bid are exactly as described.  I would never sell inferior items.  This is ebay, however, and in order to sell all these excess things I have, I need to price to sell.  I’m not a “store” or a business in any way.  My shipping costs include not only the postage, but the cost of packing materials (like cardboard, boxes, bubble wrap, tape etc) and various listing fees.

Bidding & Shipping

Please understand what you’re bidding on or offering to purchase. If you have any questions at all, please email them to me through eBay BEFORE you bid, as this is being sold as is.  I typically ship 6 days per week, via USPS, within 1 business day of payment confirmation. If you wish to use another shipping service, tell me and I will quote you a price. Check out must be completed within 3 days and all PayPal payments must be made within this time period. If payment isn't received within this time period, an unpaid item case will be opened.

International Buyers Please Note: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges.  These charges are the buyer's responsibility.  Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying. These charges are typically collected by the delivery company; please do not confuse them with additional shipping charges. I will not under, any circumstances mark your international shipment as a gift, so please do not ask. It is illegal.

Damages & Returns

Damages: Should you receive an item damaged, please do not throw the item or the packaging away before contacting me first. In some cases I do require digital images of the damaged product so I can claim the damages with post office. In certain cases, I will need the item to be returned to me in their original packaging so I can claim damage with the shipping carrier.

Returns: If you are unhappy with your item, you may return the item after contacting me.  You will be responsible for the return shipping charges unless you arrange otherwise with ebay. Once the item arrives back to me safely in resalable condition, I will issue you a credit in the same form of your original payment. Original shipping charges will be refunded for returned items.

Please make sure when you return an item that you package it safely and I suggest you purchase shipping insurance. If the item arrives back to me damaged, due to the USPS or any other reason, I will not be able to issue a refund for the item(s).

Feedback

If you have any problems with your order please always contact me first by email before you leave negative feedback. Customer service is extremely important to me and I try to do everything in my power to resolve any issues. I would greatly appreciate if you give me the chance of fixing a problem beforehand rather than leaving a negative or neutral feedback before contacting me.

Guidelines for assessing the grading / condition of used records (based on Goldmine Grading for Records)

MINT (M): Perfect! This record looks like it has just left the manufacturer, with NO flaws what so ever. It looks as though it had never been handled. No scuffs or scratches, blotches or stains. No stickers address labels, writing on the covers or labels. No tears or seam splits. No wear to the cover or record period! Age of the record has nothing to do with it.

NEAR MINT or NM, M- : this record appears virtually flawless A very minor scuff and very little else can appear on the vinyl. It should play without any noise over the flaw. The flaw is very hard to see. The cover looks as close to perfect with only minor signs of wear and or age. Minor impressions to the cover (due to the outer edge of the vinyl resting inside) may be acceptable, however the artwork is be as close to perfect as can be.

EXCELLENT or EX or VG++ : minor scuffs which are only slightly visible. There may be more than a few scuffs and NO Scratches COVER: Artwork is still as close to perfect as can be. Some impression to the cover (minor outer ring wear) but no ink wear! Some slight creases to the corners, but not wrinkled and obtrusive to the eye. The corners can show white (where the artwork pasted slick was) meaning, slight wear. No seam splits or writing on the cover or taped repairs can make this grade.

VERY GOOD PLUS or VG+ record shows wear, surface scuffs. The vinyl still has a great luster, but the flaws will be noticeable to the naked eye. If the flaws don't cause any surface noise, the vinyl can still make the VG+ grade. COVERS: A virtually clean cover, but may have small writing on it.The artwork looks clean with slightly more aging. The back of the cover usually gives away the age of the cover. Flat white paper will be somewhat yellow yet no stains or mildew from water damage. Some minor wear to the seams or spine, but no tears or holes popping through. The corners will be slightly dog eared yet no crackly bends, defacing the artwork. In essence, a VG+ cover should have no more than 3 flaws mentioned.

VERY GOOD or VG: this record is a record that is good enough. They are not really going to look very good, but it will STILL play very good. there will almost always be some surface noise when they are played. The Dynamics should still be excellent, overpowering the surface noise. A VG record will appear well have been played but still have some luster. VG covers will look worn, used. There may be some seam splitting . There will be some ring wear, where the ink has begun to wear off. Giving the cover a look of snow falling. If the artwork looks snowy all over, it is less than VG condition. There may be some writing on the cover (still, no Large letters in magic marker). It will look aged and more yellowish due to contamination's in the air (sometimes looking like cigarette smoke). Still it should be decent.

GOOD or G A good record will look very well played, dull, grayish and possibly abused. However a Good record should still play. It will have distracting surface noise. Such as crackle that is continuous or some hiss. Will also have some loss of dynamics caused from grooves being worn. It should play without any skips or any obtrusively loud pops or repeated clicks, caused by deep scratches. Good means that it will play with some form of decency, so one can still enjoy the music even though you can still hear noise caused from the wear. A Good cover will have just about everything wrong with it. It will have seam splits (possibly taped repaired, but only with scotch tape. No duct tape or masking tape repairs. These are big turn offs. May have magic marker writing on the cover but still if they are in huge letters, it is a big turn off.  In essence, the cover will looked virtually trashed, but some artwork will still be noticed.

POOR (P), FAIR (F) Generally worth 0-5 percent of the Near Mint price. The record won't play through without skipping or repeating. The picture sleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and writing. The LP cover barely keeps the LP inside it. Inner sleeves are fully seam split, crinkled, and written upon. Still sellable if they are rare records otherwise unattainable. If the artwork is worn, it is POOR and the cover is worthless
