Here's the background on these albums.  I was the original purchaser back in the late 70s, early 80s.  I was a comic book collector and was used to sorting through racks of comics on the newstand to find the nicest copy.  I did the same thing with my records.  At home I would carefully play the record just once on my Bang and Olufson linear tracking turntable to record it on to a Maxell metal cassette tape.  I would then put the record album in a special anti-static sleeve, place it back in the cover and slip the cover in a plastic sleeve I got from my comic bag supplier.  After that they were never touched.  Nobody else was allowed to touch my stuff, be it records, stereo equipment, comic books, etc.  This was not a popular stance amongst friends, but I liked my stuff MINT.  Still do, actually.  As I pulled my records out of the storage box they've been in for the last 30-40 years I was pleased to see they are as shiny and new looking as ever.  I will carefully examine each one I list to verify its condition.  If you are not happy with the purchase I will make things right, up to and including a full refund including shipping.

Any and all inserts that I received with the album are included.  Japanese albums come with lyric sheets which are there even if they don't show up in the picture.  I generally didn't ever remove them from inside the cover and they will still be in mint condition.  Any gatefold album covers I would not open, as that would leave a crease on the spine.

I will overpackage the albums to make sure they arrive in the same condition they leave in.  No reason for new damage after all these years.  Multiple records ship free - I will adjust the invoice or refund the overpayment if paid immediately.
