Thanks for your interest! All items are graded VISUALLY unless otherwise noted. I have NOT listened to them unless there is a suspicious spot that looks like it could be a problem, and I do not know the history of each (such as what type turntable they've been played on.) They are NOT graded aurally. (In other words, I am grading the record on it's appearance, NOT it's sound, and it may sound better or worse than it looks.) Due to the age of these records, you MAY hear clicks, pops, and surface noise that are NOT apparent upon visual inspection. In addition, in rare instances a record may skip or stick even when there is no visible indication that this should happen.  This is no different than buying a vintage record at a used record store or record show; you make your purchase decision based upon how it LOOKS. Most of the time, the look and sound are pretty equivalent, but there are times when they aren't, and I'm making that clear in the listing as return costs have become very prohibitive. If you are international, make sure you review shipping terms.

US shipping $3.99  by Media Mail. Add'l records in same shipment $1 in USA.
Grading is: NearMint / EXcellent / VG+ / VG / VG- / G. Only a SEALED record will be graded MINT. Any grade below mint will POTENTIALLY have some sort of defect, although VERY minor in the case of "NM". (Note that NM and EX records are in TOP/Near Top  condition, and are VERY nice. NM does not necessarily mean LIKE NEW, but will be fairly close to it (maybe a faint hairline(s)/paper shadows on vinyl, cover may have a light crease or faint wear).  EX grades usually have a few more light hairlines and/or paper slide shadows, covers showing a bit more wear. VG+ and VG records are decent copies, with light marks/light scratches (as you get toward the lower end of VG, may be heavier/feelable) and/or more hairlines/scuffs.  VG- and G records are approaching/at THE BOTTOM of the grading scale, 4 to 5 levels BELOW a NM record. They may have some visible and/or feelable scratches, possibly heavy "chickenscratch" swirl marks, and as they get to lower VG- and G they should be looked at strictly as filler copies with wear that may affect play. Covers follow same grading scale, and those at bottom of scale will be in rougher condition. Bid accordingly.)

Note: Non-payments are inconvenient to the seller and unfair to SERIOUS bidders. Therefore, payment is requested within 3 days unless combining, and I will combine for up to 1 week....just let me know. If there has been no communication after 3 days, an unpaid item case will open automatically. Thanks for your consideration.

A note on feedback: I do my best to accurately grade every record and cover, and ship securely and in a timely manner. I do a pretty good job of it, with 3 eBay accounts and about 10,000 feedbacks. Yet there always seems to be a buyer every now and then who gets his jollies by leaving negative feedback just because he CAN. Like the guy who topped TWENTY other bidders at the last minute on an old Buddy Holly/Crickets LP clearly stated as ROUGH, didn't pay or communicate until AFTER I was forced to open an unpaid item case, and then left a negative saying the record SKIPPED. Seems to me that on a record described as ROUGH, there is a pretty good chance it may skip. (The guy was an eBay record seller himself, so he may also have just wanted to damage his competitor's reputation.) So... please READ THE LISTING. Make sure you understand it, and ask questions if you don't. And if you're one of "those guys", please get your jollies elsewhere. Life's too short.  


International shipping is via the new Ebay Global Shipping Program. If your country is not part of this program, 1st Class mail is $20 plus $4 each add'l, but Paypal will NOT be accepted for the transaction if shipped 1st Class - other payment options are available. Your other option is Priority Mail INSURED at cost of around $40 plus $3 each add'l. (Remember, Ebay charges me about 11% commission on SHIPPING charges). No exceptions to this.
