Comments:
According to internet research, this record was pressed at the Columbia Records pressing plant in Terre Haute. This record plays through loud and clear with no skips or repeats with very minimal signs of wear and given a VG+ grade. The cover has ring wear and slight discoloring due to age and therefore given a VG grade.
Shipping:
I offer free shipping so you will know the amount you bid, plus sales tax of course, is the amount you pay. Records and inner sleeves are placed outside the cardboard cover and placed inside a poly outer cover. Then it is placed between crisscrossed cardboard pads and shipped inside a 12" X 12" X 2" cardboard mailer.
Please let me know if you are purchasing more than one item before you pay so I can combine the payment and ship them in a larger container. Thanks
Grading:
I use the Goldmine Grading Guide, which is the universally accepted standard for representing the condition of physical music in the resale market. Brief description is listed below.
Mint (M): This grade is reserved for items that have never been played and are still factory sealed. However, I will not use this grade on sealed items unless they are brand new and have not aged in any way.
Near Mint (NM): I use this grade when the item has not been opened or played but has signs of ageing to the packaging or other signs of wear such as bent corners on the cover, etc.
Very Good Plus (VG+): The item will show some signs that it was played and handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Any defects are of a cosmetic nature and do not affect the actual playback.
Very Good (VG): The item will have some defects such as, slight surface noise, scuffs, light scratches, more wear from being played many times. Also, the label or cover may have stickers, writing, or residue. However, a VG item will not have all of these problems at the same time.
Good (G) or Good Plus (G+): An item in Good (G) or Good Plus (G+) condition can be played through without skipping, but it will have significant surface noise, scratches, crackling, or visible wear. A container, cover, or sleeve may have scratches or seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, or other defects may also be present.
Poor (P), or Fair (F): The item is cracked, badly warped, and may not play through without skipping or repeating. The sleeve or cover could be cracked, water-damaged, and heavily marred by wear or writing. If it is a vinyl record, the album cover and inner sleeves are fully split, crinkled, and written upon. Any item I offer with this grade will most likely be used for display or art.
Please let me know if you are not happy with this item and I will make it right. Not because I want to retain my eBay rating, but because I honestly care about your satisfaction with this purchase.
Don't forget to visit and follow our store. I recently purchased a large bulk of 78 rpm, 33 1/3 rpm, and 45 rpm records and will continually be listing them.
Thanks for looking and please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
