SAM COOKE-SHAKE A CHANGE IS GONNA COME Soul,1965 OG Mono 1st Press*MINT*C DETAIL This record is part of Seller’s own Personal Collection that, over the years, has taken Seller approximately a decade of actual time to acquire.  With this in mind, the decision was made, to start listing each of our approximately 1500 vintage records, in an effort to help offset costs, associated with, our child’s last year of college.  KEEP IN MIND That this Seller has been acquiring these vintage records, (both LPs & 45s), over the years, as a collector, and a lot of extra personal  time, research & inspection, went into virtually every record listed (or will be listed), from this referenced personal-collection.  And, the overwhelming majority of records listed in this Seller’s store, will likely be in Mint, Near Mint or Excellent Condition (w limited exceptions).  Yet, w this in mind, it’s important that Prospective Buyers, still take the necessary time & due diligence, to double check Seller’s actual Condition/Grading, provided for each record listed & to review all attached images as well, to get a better visual description of the record, listed in this particular auction!  

(* GRADING/CONDITION):  Please Take Special Note:  Although this record collection was acquired by Seller,over the course of approximately ten (10) years, Seller does not imply or claim to be any expert or Professional (CONDITION) Grader of any kind.  Additionally, Prospective Buyers, should not infer any portion of Seller’s Description, to be confirmation or implication that, any GRADING/CONDITION provided, originates from any other source, other than Seller & Seller’s own personal experience & opinion.

WHY THIS SELLER NO LONGER ACCEPTS RETURNS:

In addition to maintaining this eBay Store, over the past five (5) years, this Seller is also, a proud, longtime eBay Buyer too, {our first purchase dating back to 1999}. As such, this Seller possesses both, a personal empathy for, and a genuine affinity to, each fellow-eBay Member, making a purchase from our store.

With this in mind, it is important to point out, to this store’s valued Buyers, the significant increase & exponential influx (in recent years) of, a relatively new ‘RETURNS’ Phenomenon, known & often referred to as: (a tire-kicking-shopper).

Statistically, the ‘tire-kicking-shopper’, will often buy an item, knowing at the very onset that their purchase, will likely result in a (RETURN TO SELLER). Admittedly, such random Returns, often reflect benign reasoning, such as: (Didn’t Fit, Changed-mind, Buyer’s Remorse and/or Didn’t Like, etc).  Granted, there is NOTHING wrong or unethical, when Buying an item & then, returning it accordingly (and unused). However, such an exponential increase in these type of referenced-returns, may be feasible for a scirrhous few of the larger online Sellers that, maintain a much higher (profit) margin. Yet, for many smaller online stores (such as this ebay store), our business-model, {dating back over two decades}, simply can not withstand and/or survive, the increasing cost, affiliated w such a RETURN!

And, with this economic-understanding, it should be overtly & properly NOTED that, our small eBay store, has completely-discontinued offering any Returns.

However, our eBay store will faithfully continue, to Auction, ONLY the highest quality, brand-name items available, while providing EXCEPTIONAL Service & Support to our Buyers!

Ideally, this will be accomplished, with the realization & knowledge that, eBay always has & will continue to provide, their Protect & Guarantee, for {virtually} every item sold within the ebay community! {PLEASE REVIEW - EBAY BUYER MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE ON THIS LISTING - FOR MORE DETAILS!}

BUYERS CONSIDERED LIVING IN THE U.S., BUT OUTSIDE THE LOWER 48 STATES, PLEASE CONFIRM EXACT SHIPPING COST, W THIS SELLER, PRIOR TO PLACING BID OR MAKING PURCHASE!

Also, the carrier-selection for shipping item(s) to Buyer, is also, at the sole discretion of Seller, in order to affect, the least expensive & most dependable delivery methodology, for Shipping an item (or items) to Buyer. In other words, Seller may reference that, an item, in their listing’s description, as initially being shipped, via USPS Priority Mail. When actually, after an item has been fully packaged, the Buyer’s item, may end up shipping, via UPS or FedEx (whichever, is the least expensive carrier available, including the extra cost for insurance that’s absorbed by Seller (to insure package contents). And Seller will always weigh such a selection of carrier, w/out compromising the timeframe for delivery.

That stated, this Seller is motivated by underpromising and over delivering to every Buyer, and this is why the Seller denotes, a 3-day processing window. In reality & on average, the majority of items sold (by this Seller), are shipped by the next day. eBay offers their Sellers more incentive, to offer a 1-day processing window.

However, this Seller had much-rather commit to an honest, 3-day processing window that, can be more {realistically} honored, while Seller attempts, to pleasantly surprise Buyer, w an expeditious turn-around time - for all deliveries!. Specific Description of this Seller’s (referenced) 3-Day Processing Commitment, EXCLUDES-ANY weekend or holiday dates (and/or) in rare circumstances, any unexpected sick day(s).

The goal of every item listed and sold on this particular eBay account, is to make each Buyer’s experience second to none, while providing complete customer satisfaction, concerning the purchase made. Seller strives to underpromise and overdeliver w each listing, and to go above and beyond Buyer’s expectations, by making every genuine effort possible, to expedite each and every shipment (once payment is made).

And, although every effort is made so that, each listing is sold without hassle or issue, the Seller realizes that, not every Buyer will have an absolute perfect buying experience, {due to an unintentional human-error or misunderstanding}. However, Seller is quick to take full-responsibility, should the unexpected occur, and the Buyer’s experience, becomes less than item’s description.

And, it is in this vein that an immediate and mutually agreeable resolution is carried out, to insure overall customer satisfaction.
