Celtic Frost-“Morbid Tales” 1985 release on Metal Blade Records.  Vinyl has heavy scratches/scuff marks.  It played well for me to record, but I will not guarantee how it performs on your system.  Vinyl grade is G-.  Cardboard sleeve shows heavy edge/spine/corner wear with some scratches and creases- grade is G-.  The poster is not with this item and there are no inserts either.  This auction is for the vinyl and the cardboard sleeve.

Please do not automatically pay the Ebay-generated invoice.  Shipping in the US is $0.00 via media mail, per listing, unless you specify another method.  Multiple purchases will be combined in order to save you $$ at the rate of $1.00 per additional purchase.  Orders over $50 will have the signature confirmation option added to insure delivery receipt.  I will ship outside of the US, but you must contact me prior to bidding in order to confirm shipping charges and then wait for me to send an invoice for your winning bid(s).  I will only send an item outside of the US if it is insured and you sign for it upon receipt.  This is to insure against post office loss and/or theft.  Paypal is the only accepted method of payment, please don’t ask to pay in another fashion.  It is expected that payment will be made within 2-3 days after auction close.  If payment cannot be made within this time frame, please contact me as I am willing to work with you if necessary.  After 10 days, an “unpaid item” case will be opened if there has been no return communication.  I will ship within 24-36 hours of posted payment.  Please be sure to leave feedback once you have your items.

Regarding the condition of the item(s) for sale:  I have the capability of recording my vinyl records and transferring them into an mp3 format.  I have done this with all albums up for sale.  If there were any issues above and beyond the occasional crack and/or pop, then these items would not be up for sale (unless the issue is noted).  For shipping, all records are taken out of the sleeves in order to prevent any excessive inner sleeve or cardboard sleeve wear.  Prior to purchase, please ask any and all questions that you may have about the item(s) you wish to purchase.  I welcome questions and want you to be confident in your purchase(s).  I have listed the quality and conditions of the items as best as I can and I have graded my items very conservatively.  If you receive an item, or items, and there is some conditional detail that I did not list, please let me know about it and I will work with you.  Please do not hide behind a downgraded feedback evaluation because you didn't ask a question before you made your purchase.  I want us all to be happy with the transaction.  If auctions close on different days, and purchases are made across both days, then payment should be posted in the same time frame after the last auction closing day.  Thank you and happy shopping!!
