Hello! We Will be offering an array of other goodies from our shop, vast collections, and consignments!  Please check out our other items!

***PLEASE NOTE*** WE ACCEPT PAYPAL PAYMENTS FOR VERIFIED/CONFIRMED CUSTOMERS ONLY.  

SHIPPING*** The USPS/U.S. Post Office is raising its rates again on January 1st, 2022; 3.1% - 8.8%.  It also does not help matters when Ebay takes an additional 10% fee of your postage. We will begin adjusting new shipping costs accordingly now, that will commence new shipping fees for items/auctions that end on or about January 1st, 2022.

RECORD GRADES:  These grades are for records, not covers. See entire description above for other grading details. Covers will be graded differently and can be seen in the photos with the magnifying glass for your inspection. I will not be observing covers in depth for “dings” and “creases,”  but will obviously describe any major flaws, splits, writing. Please see the item description and photos for your inspection. And by all means, please ask if you have a specific question regarding any record, cover, sleeve, insert.

MINT: Sealed. Only sealed, NEW items will receive this grade. We entirely disagree with all of the Ebay sellers who say their “opened” and “used” records are “MINT” or worse, “STONE MINT.” It is impossible by definition alone. Any open item is no longer “new” and therefore no longer “mint.” It's pretty simple.

NM: A record that may only have slight pressing or handling imperfections. Few to no surface hairlines or scuffs. Plays thoroughly without sticks or skips. Little to no surface noise.

VG++: Visual and/or audio signs of play, but still well taken care of. May have a few surface hairlines, scuffs or surface scratches that do not affect play. Plays thoroughly without skips or sticks. May have a bit of light, intermittent surface noise in between tracks or in quieter passages.

VG+: Visual and/or audio signs of more significant play or handling. May have more significant surface marks/scratches/scuffs, but none tactile. Plays thoroughly with or without an intermittent tick and some surface noise, but not overpowering the music. May have a stick or skip. Still, a very listenable item.

VG: Similar to VG+, but a greater number of surface marks/scratches/scuffs; possibly tactile as well. May have a stick and/or skip. Still, a listenable item.

VG-: Significant visual and audio wear. Will play with varying or constant surface noise. May have one or more significant or tactile (feelable) marks likely causing a tick, skip, or stick once or more during play. Mostly reserved for very rare or scarce items as a “starter” copy of a very hard to find item.

G: Not good, and unless wholesaled mainly for the covers, not a grade that is particularly used.

 We DO combine items for a multi-item shipping discount!

PLEASE NOTE**** THE UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE TRIPLE THREAT BEGINS ON NOVEMBER 1ST, 2021, JUST TO MAKE YOUR HOLIDAYS EVEN MORE STRESSFUL! 1. Cutting Back On Staffing & NO Overtime 2. Increase In Postage Costs, Both Domestic & International 3. S-L-O-W-E-R Delivery Times Yes, if you can believe it, delivery times this holiday season will be even slower than last year, if that is conceivably possible. However, this was the warning from WNBC News Channel 4 Yesterday Morning, October 3rd, 2021, to take effect on November 1st, 2021. So please remember people, we ship the packages, but we do NOT deliver the mail. So when you decide to angrily email us & ask where your package is because you've still not received it, do you & us a favor & call the 800 number for the U.S. Postal Service instead because we cannot answer that question for you. Also note that we will not cancel your item(s), nor will we give you a refund because the Post Office is taking too long to deliver your item(s). Know this now, before you decide to bid on any items after October 25th, 2021-January 31st, 2022. Thank You. Respectfully, -Joantiques
