George Strait. Strait Country. MCA-27092. Matrix #s indicate pressing at Pinckneyville plant.
Visual Grade: Jacket: NM/VG+ Vinyl: NM Play grade: NM What little I listened to was very quiet.
I have listened to 30 seconds or less of record for the play grade. I checked the lead in grooves on both sides and then samples a few seconds from 2 other random sites on each side.
The record was ultrasonically cleaned. In most cases a the inner sleeve was replaced with a new archival inner sleeve. In many cases the original inner sleeve was kept and included in the package. Play grade was determined on a Clearaudio Concept Active Wood Turntable, Maestro V2 MM Cartridge, & Carbon Fibre Tonearm Combo using Grado SR325x Prestige headphones.
All records will be shipped with the record outside of the jacket to minimize splitting of the jacket. Exception is sealed records which are shipped as is.
Shipping: Shipping may be calculated from the link below for both domestic and foreign buyers. Note that although I've listed a 15 day handling period most items will ship within a day or two of payment. However, sometimes things cause a delay as this is strictly a one-man operation.
Discounts: I combine orders to save on shipping but you need to wait for me to send you a bill. This applies to domestic & foreign. Another reason to wait for a bill is I give many discounts on shipping that depend upon the final price of the item, what I paid for it, (my mood), etc.
Foreign buyers will get a shipping discount equivalent to what I would give to a US destination. Foreign buyers will be responsible for any customs fees or taxes. I REPORT THE FULL VALUE ON CUSTOMS FORMS. Note that there may be customs delays that are outside of my control.
