STOP! Please, this will help YOU... yes YOU! Read this, then proceed: I would like to clear-up if a 'Picture Sleeve' is real or not ... since there's been so many buyers recently asking the question ... "Is the Picture Sleeve real or not" ... if you see (Copy) anywhere in the Title or listing, it's a Picture of the front of a Picture Sleeve, a album cover or a CD cover ... it's a copy ... [a reproduction; not an original]. Look on the bright side it got your attention ... which is exactly what I wanted to do, it didn't cost you a dime(it's my paper, ink & time) and it really looks as nice as the original ... but it's just a PICTURE of the "FRONT" of the original PICTURE SLEEVE, a ALBUM cover or CD cover. So if you DON'T see (Copy) anywhere in that listing ... then it's THE REAL DEAL ... an "ORIGINAL" Picture Sleeve. I hope this clears up any confusion as to what is REAL and NOT REAL. If there is a problem and there has been and most likely will be in the future, it's because you; A - didn't bother read this or B - didn't really understand it ... come on ... Picture Information

ALL THE RECORDS HAVE BEEN CLEANED AND PLAYED AND THEY DO NOT SKIP. THERE'S SOME BACKGROUND NOISE HERE AND THERE. THE PICTURE COPY LOOKS REAL NICE AND IS A COPY OF THE FRONT OF A PICTURE SLEEVE, A ALBUM COVER OR A CD COVER AND GIVES THIS LOT A LITTLE EXTRA VISUAL FLARE(See Photo). THE LABELS MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE ANY STICKERS, TAGS, PUNCH HOLES, BEEN TOUCHED UP OR WRITING OR MARKINGS IN INK(See Photo). THESE RECORDS ARE BY NO MEANS MINT, BUT THEY STILL LOOK AND SOUND NICE FOR BEING 54+yrs.OLD!  ALL RECORD RANKINGS ARE TAKEN FROM ' JOEL WHITBURNS ' BILLBOARD POP HITS 1940-1954, TOP POP SINGLES AND TOP R&B / HIP-HOP SINGLES BOOKS. THE P(Copy) AND RECORDS BY  ' THE SHANGRI-LAS '  WOULD MAKE A VERY NICE ADDITION TO YOUR  RECORD COLLECTION, AND AT A VERY REASONABLE PRICE. THE P(Copy) AND RECORDS COME IN PLASTIC WITH PAPER SLEEVES! PLEASE CHECK MY FEEDBACK AND BID WITH CONFIDENCE! POSITIVE FEEDBACK IS ALWAYS GIVEN WHEN RECEIVED. IF I'SOMETHING WRONG, I'LL TRY TO MAKE IT RIGHT. THANKS FOR LOOKING! Please read all notes before bidding or buying.  This item comes with a 'COPY' picture photo.  IT IS NOT THE ORIGINAL PICTURE SLEEVE THAT WAS ISSUED WITH THE RECORD.  It is just a COPY photo of the front of a sleeve that was made to enhance someone's collection.  There may not have ever been a picture sleeve originally issued with the item, or the sleeve may have been too expensive or too difficult to find, or any other of a number of reasons.  The COPY photo may be of the front of a original picture sleeve(if issued), a foreign issue picture sleeve, EP cover, LP cover or, in some cases, the sheet music associated with the release.  I will try to note the photo origin whenever I can.  These 'COPY' photo's have no official collector value, but are a nice addition - better than just a blank sleeve.  I will not consider the COPY in deciding on a starting price for an auction, or a fixed price for a Buy-it-Now.  The price will be based solely on the record.  All of the COPY photo's will be pictured - usually only one side has a photo - one side will virtually always be blank.  Please message me if you have any questions.  BTW - all of the records containing these COPY photo's are original.

  "ELVIS" HAS LEFT THE AUCTION!

I personally write all of my own descriptions, take all of my own photos, and package all items for mailing myself.  I do not use text, photos or information from “other” sources and would certainly never do so without referencing them. Items pictured in any of my listings are always the actual items that buyers will receive from me.

Thank you for viewing my auction.  I appreciate your interest.  Good luck bidding.

*** All my auctions are now on Saturday & Sunday and sometimes just on Saturday. If you have a problem or just aren't sure of something ... just ask and I'll give you a quick reply or get back to A.S.A.P. *** 

 *** Thanks ... Mark ***

PLEASE READ:

For international buyers only!

I'm sorry but the recent postal rate hikes by the U.S. post office have given me no choice but to increase my shipping cost when you buy more than (4 lbs.) that's around 9-10 lots then shipping goes from First Class International to Priority International which adds about $10.00 more to the shipping cost. So if you buy a lot and cross that line, please understand why there is a shipping cost increase ... I don't like it either ... but it has to be. I have to be able to cover my expenses. Thanks for understanding and enjoy your records ... and thanks again,Mark

International shipping is posted, but if you have any questions ... please ask. I ship in the U.S. by Media mail. My aim is to provide vintage vinyl records of a decent quality at a reasonable price. I list the lots, you the buyer determine what that value will be. Please note however, nearly all the records I sell are used, some nearly fifty+ years old, and not all but some will have some minor imperfections, so please read descriptions and look over the pictures carefully. Any questions feel free to ask. In order to ensure maximum satisfaction, you may return any record within seven days for a full refund, if you feel it does not live up to the description provided. Thanks for looking - MARK

*************** PLEASE READ ***************

Many of the records I sell are 40-50+ years old and these older recording are more likely to have some type of minor imperfection, be it background noise (occasional popping or crackling sound), label marking's, label wear, etc. Some of your older records may have surface scratches which may affect the sound and playing of the record, then again some may not be affected at all, that's why I listen too the hit side and if there's a problem, I will throw away the record. These records are not going to be in mint condition, but trust me (Check My Feedback) ... they will be a welcome addition to your record collection and at a fair price, that won't break your piggy bank. I take the records I come across and clean them, listen too the hit-side and look at the B-side. When I come across a recording that doesn't sound good, and by that I mean something I couldn't listen too over & over again on my jukebox ... I throw it away. If you come across a recording that doesn't sound good to you, please just let me know ... don't worry ... we'll work a solution that we both can live with. Let's make this an enjoyable E-Baying experience for you and me. Positive feedback is something I value and work for very hard to accomplish. This is my hobby, but I take it very seriously and hope you will be very happy with your records, and I hope our paths will cross again.

As you know, in addition to feedback, eBay also provides a 5 star rating system.  I'm doing my best to achieve a 5 star rating and you can help me to achieve this by rating me and this transaction.  Customer satisfaction is my number one goal.  If you are happy with your purchase, I would appreciate it if you give me a 5 star rating.  You can be assured I will return the favor by leaving you glowing positive feedback!   If you are not completely satisfied, please let me know before leaving any feedback or ratings, so that I may have an opportunity to correct any deficiency and truly earn the highest ratings.        Records are shipped after payment is received on the next business day, usually(Monday) following the ending of the auction on Saturday. I will ship the records on Monday and I will ship by Media Mail.                          Thanks again, Mark
