UPDATE:    Good news!   The buyer who tried to mar our reputation, as well as others, has now been removed from the eBay community.  It remains to be seen whether his so-called friends will continue his dirty work, but as of now, we are elated to report that his other two eBay IDs are also suspended.   Thank you to the many sellers and customers who offered their support, as that helped tremendously during our efforts to get the job done.  Now on to more pleasant things...

PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question.   OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. Because of that dedication, there should be no need to open a resolution dispute before working with us.  Please keep in mind, we would prefer to continue to provide you the opportunity to acquire the rare music we present each and every week.   Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office. Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable.  We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our well over 18,000 positive feedback.   We use an ultrasonic KLAudio machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery.   We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music! We have served thousands of satisfied customers - far more than our feedback records indicate - and our aim is to continue to do so.  Thank you for your interest and support.

LOOKS STRONG <-----> PLAYS OUTSTANDING!

Rare and sought after 1969 original pressing West Coast psych classic with a great heavy edged sound...

..............................................................................

This very obscure & classic album created by the San Francisco psychedelic band Day Blindness in 1969 ... every track features driving fuzzy guitars & gushing organ. Long jams sum up their music with "heavy" vocals, which shows influences of both Iron Butterfly & The Doors -- Peaking on the 12:30 long track "Holy Land" while featuring on guitar Gary Pihl... a psychedelic sixties collectors dream sound find ... here, a rare first pressing from over 40 years ago and getting rarer and harder to find by the minute....
