COMMENTS: Pack of 2 Latin pressings of Abba's Chiquitita single (Colombian and Dominican)
ITEM CONDITION: Vinyl 1: Colombian single looks Good+, it plays with some surface noise and clicks/pops during the first part of Chiquitita, later it plays better. To judge how it sounds please listen to the sample, it was taken directly from the record for sale with a Shure M44-7 cartridge, a DJ standard, with no tampering or any declicking at all. This record has been cleaned on a VPI Record Cleaning Machine. Jacket 1: Good Vinyl 2: Dominican single looks Good, surface noise and clicks/pops here and there, but not skips. Still enjoyable and it's worth it due to its rarity Jacket 2: Generic Labels: Please check the pictures
SELLING CONDITIONS: Please read the below information before buy or place a bid. Taxes and import duties are not included in the item price or shipping cost. Please check with you country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding / buying. We offer two shipping options: FedEx Economy (about one week to most countries) and Certified Mail (delivery takes from 4 to 8 weeks). We sincerely encourage buyers to choose the FedEx option as it's much more faster and the rates are reasoneable, specially if combine orders. If the Certified Mail option is chosen, be patient, as delays may occur due to the well known Colombian Post slow service and the strict controls over packs leaving Colombia. Packages always arrive, even if it takes time. Please remember this before bidding, buying or opening a claim. Handling time is 2-3 business days.
SHIPPING RATES: FedEx rates below apply to most delivery destinations, except for remote areas. Remote is defined as a post / zip code that is difficult to serve; or a suburb/town that is distant, inaccessible or infrequently served. In this case a Remote Area Surcharge is applied by FedEx.

RECORD'S GRADING: We use the "Goldmine Magazine" grading guide, considered to be the standard for records collectors worldwide. Mint (M): These are absolutely perfect in every way. Near Mint (NM): A good description of a NM record is “it looks like it just came from a retail store and it was opened for the first time.” In other words, it’s nearly perfect. NM records are shiny, with no visible defects. Writing, stickers or other markings cannot appear on the label, nor can any “spindle marks”. Major factory defects also must be absent; a record and label obviously pressed off center is not Near Mint. If played, it will do so with no surface noise. NM covers are free of creases, ring wear and seam splits of any kind. Excellent (E): An Excellent record is similar to a VG+ record. Its light marks will be difficult to spot. Their minute signs of use, generally, reflect high-quality care. Very Good + (VG+): VG+ records may show some slight signs of wear, including light scuffs or very light scratches that do not affect the listening experience. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are OK. Minor signs of handling are OK, too, such as telltale marks around the center hole, but repeated playing has not misshapen the hole. There may be some very light ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. A VG+ cover might have some minor seam wear or a split (less than one inch long) at the bottom, the most vulnerable location. Also, a VG+ cover may have some defacing, such as a cut-out marking. Covers with cut-out markings can never be considered Near Mint. Very Good (VG): Many of the imperfections found on a VG+ record are more obvious on a VG record. They lack most of the original gloss found on VG+ records and groove wear is evident on sight, as are light scratches deep enough to feel with a fingernail. VG records have some surface noise and some scratches may be audible, especially in soft passages and during a song’s intro and ending, but the noise will not overpower the music. Minor writing, tape or a sticker can detract from the label. VG covers will have some ring wear. Some more creases might be visible. Seam splitting will be more obvious; it may appear on all three sides. Someone might have written or stamped a price tag on it, too. For many buyers they remain a fine listening experience and will be worth the money. Good (G): Good does not mean bad. A record in Good or Good + can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping or repeating, but it will have significant surface noise, scratches and visible groove wear. The jacket has seam splits; tape, writing, ring wear and other defects will start to overwhelm. Poor (P) / Fair (F): The record is cracked, badly warped and won't play through without skipping or repeating. The jacket  barely keeps the LP inside it and may be water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and / or writing.
