My vinyl orders are insured, ship in oversized boxes (15" x 14" x 3"), and the LPs are centered within those boxes to ensure that your item does not get damaged during shipment.

My shipping expenses cover these considerations.

ARTIST:  The Cure
TITLE: Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me Pressed in 2016 2 LPs Sold Out Out of Print 180 Gram Vinyl
UPC: 081227967451
FORMAT: 2 LPs
CONDITION: Brand New / Factory Sealed / Never Opened
There is a split in the shrink-wrap on the top right side by the hype sticker (see picture #6 for a close-up of this area).

PLEASE SEE  ALL 12 PICTURES:  This is the actual item you will receive, and the pictures were taken immediately before the item was listed.
Item is sold "as is" If you have any questions or concerns, please ask questions before ordering. 
LP SHIPPING OPTION: I cannot guarantee an album will not get a seam split if it factory sealed.  I do make incredible efforts to package an LP so it cannot move within its shipping container.  If you are concerned about seam splits with a factory sealed LP, I can open it and individually package each LP outside the sleeves/box. I have never had a customer tell me this has happened, but I want to provide full disclosure about the possibility of a seam split and options to prevent it for a client.

SHIPPING QUESTIONS: "What are VAT/Value Added Taxes, Import Fees, Import Duties and who pays for them?" Every country has their own policies regarding importing items from foreign countries.  Many countries have VAT or import duties, which are monies that are to be paid by the importer (buyer).  These fees are determined by conditions such as the kind of item being imported (is it food, art, merchandise, etc.) and/or the fees are determined by the value of the item.  An item that is $20.00 will have a smaller VAT/fee than an item that is $300.00.   Any and all import taxes/fees are the responsibility of the buyer/importer.   Every country's policies are unique, so if you are uncertain regarding your country's import fee structure, please contact your nation's postal/import provider.
"When will my order ship?" Items ship Monday through Saturday in the late morning, therefore your order will ship within 12-36 hours of receiving your payment.   (We do not ship on Sundays, and it is possible that severe winter weather may delay a shipment.  If there is a delay, I will promptly contact you.)
"How long will it take for the item to be delivered by the carrier?" Normal United States Post Office (USPS) delivery rates apply.  If you are logged into your eBay account, an approximate delivery date range should be automatically displayed. 
If you have questions, need an item expedited, or do not understand the different between shipping schedules, please visit the USPS website.  The USPS website has the most up-to-date estimates and information regarding their different delivery services.
I offer expedited shipping, and you can select that option and pay the additional shipping costs if you so choose.
"How do you package your items?" I am a buyer and seller on eBay.  I used to own an independently owned business.  I take this process seriously. I package your items the same way I hope my orders are packaged, with great care and with great effort to avoid any kind of possible damage.
I buy new and reuse boxes, bags, tape, bubblewrap, foam peanuts, air pockets, craft paper, foam sheets or whatever is necessary to ensure that your item arrives undamaged and in a timely fashion.
All orders have tracking numbers.
My shipping costs include the money spent to ensure your item arrives safely.  
Please see my seller feedback, as I make profound efforts to make sure you get your item in a timely fashion and in the condition as seen within my listing.
"What are some examples of how you package items?" If you order a vinyl album, it will be tightly secured and ship in an oversized box to protect the corners from damage. If you order a compact disc it will ship in a bubble mailer and have oversized sheets of cardboard protecting the faces of the case.  If you order a large sized print/artwork, it will ship in a mailing tube that is surrounded in packaging materials and placed within a larger box to ensure it is not crushed during shipment.
"Do you combine shipping costs?" I will always combine shipments whenever possible because it reduces both of our costs, my time, and the use of materials.  If you order multiple Buy It Now items that have shipping costs, I will package your orders together, pay for the needed shipping costs, and refund the unused shipping costs before shipping your item.
