A hard to find early-issue (pre-Edwards/Rodgers credits) 12" Single from Sugarhill Gang  - Rapper's Delight - released in 1979 on Sugarhill Records.   This disc was used in club and is in very good overall condition with mild surface wear - just played on my Technics and is skip-free; Generic SH sleeve is solid with lite edge/corner wear from age & use.  Record has been in storage for over 20 years.
Record will ship in a cardboard mailer via USPS Media Mail. USPS Postage increased 5% in January and another 5% this July if you weren't following the news.  
USA ONLY - I can combine shipping: $1 for each record up to 10 and then 50-cents per record up to a max of 40.  For combined shipping you must wait for the auction to end and have me then send an invoice - eBay does not combine invoices.  EBAY manages invoices for all Non-USA shipping.  
PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING - A few idiots are spoiling the party.
1. Unless clearly stated that a record is factory sealed, they are and have been USED.  Singles have been mostly spun in clubs meaning just that - Club Used - so they are not perfect.
2. If you are looking for a new, nice and pretty version of a 25 year-old record, go to Barnes & Noble and get a wrapped reprint-record there.
3. Pretend this is a dusty used record shop, not a hipster place that sells re-issues.  These records have been in boxes for 20+ years for the most part and I am helping my collection find new homes with people who enjoy and understand that with age comes a bit of wear and dust. 
4. If you have an issue with a record you received send me a note, do not go to Ebay and say I don't like it because 99% of people would agree, that's just lame.  
5. If you want a great record that is probably not available in your dusty record shop, cool. If this stuff doesn't work for you, download the songs off Amazon and save everyone from taking an Advil.  
6. If you WIN please pay.  Pretty simple.  My auctions are set to cancel if unpaid within 96 hours.  Why 96 hours? Because in my experience the payment rate after 36 hours is about 50% and after 72 hours it's less than 25%, so if you can't pay on time...
