This record was from my brother-in-laws personal collection. He took good care of his vinyl- we haven't found a single scratched record out of over 100 that we are offering here on eBay (a few have a scuffs or two or storage damage to the cardboard sleeves). Please see our store for more of Mark's collection- after his passing, my sister wanted these to get into the hands of others who had similar musical taste :-)
1984 Grateful Dead For The Faithful 2 LP set Arista/ Pair  ARPDL 2-1053 VG+/ G+. Vinyl is VG+ or better- we found a few scuffs on one side of one of the LPs- otherwise only very light surface wear. Includes it's inner sleeves. Cardboard sleeve has a split along the bottom seam and typical storage wear/rubbing

PLEASE NOTE- we use the Goldmine Magazine "A guide to Vinyl Record Grades" that is available on ebay under their Buying Guides section. We tend to under-grade because we want satisfied customers( please check our feedback page to see if our buyers agree :-)

 That said- if you want a mint copy of this album, please do not buy ours if we have graded it very good + (or lower than that). We WILL NOT accept returns because the buyer wants perfection and we have graded the record we are selling lower than Mint. We occasionally grade a record Mint, but only because it was never played or is still factory sealed. 

We will be sending you LP outside of it's record sleeve, protected by bubble wrap. We have learned that this is the way buyers want their vintage albums shipped nowadays to prevent splitting to the sleeve. If you DO NOT want your record sent this way PLEASE let us know as soon as you purchase so we can follow your request. Sealed records will stay that way until you open them.

 All of our vintage vinyl is sold as-found. This album might need light cleaning or dust removal, but we would prefer to allow the buyer to use their desired method to do this task (some of our vinyl is spotless, but we always include this message)

Please see photos for more details :-)

We try very hard to protect your purchase- books and other paper items get sent in plastic sleeves or bubble wrap surrounded by cardboard, other breakable items get packing peanuts, bubble wrap, or other protection  to help avoid postal damage. See the comments from our buyers on our feedback page for more details.

Please see photos for more details :-)

And now- Roadypig?s Ebay policy and disclaimer stuff :-)

NEW!- 5-23-2021- Ebay is constantly changing what it requires us as sellers to listings. Sometimes, those boxes that have to be clicked include things that have nothing to do with what is being sold (a military book with a sub-category of FOOD location, which is a strange thing to require). Sometimes, they want us to put a year for a lot of multi-year items, sometimes adding a sub-category for decade . So we try to add the correct information as best we can. As often as they make us change our listings, there can be a few listings that slip through the cracks. So if you have any questions about what we are selling, please send us a message, and either my wife or I will respond to try to help you out :-)

We will combine multiple purchases and give you a discount if possible to save both of us on shipping- just send an email to let us know when you are done , we will send you 

an invoice with the shipping discount. If eBay won?t allow you to buy without immediate payment (due to their rules for sellers to qualify for Top rated Plus), we will refund you any overpayment as soon as we can get on our computer (we only charge our buyers our ACTUAL shipping costs on every order) !

Please study the pictures and description before bidding or purchasing , and ask questions if you are unclear about 

anything.  Be sure the item is what you want before purchasing, because we do not take returns EXCEPT through the eBay return system.  All items sold as is.  We are not experts in any field.  We find interesting things at auctions and estate sales, and pass them along to you.  We do a little internet research and describe things as best we can, but you probably know more about the item than we do.  You decide the quality and value.  Please let me know if we have incorrectly described or identified the item.

We do not sell using ?free shipping?  (except for an occasional light paper item that we can slip into a first class envelope for a single stamp)- we would rather sell you items for the best price, and only charge you for our actual shipping costs. Please compare our full price including shipping to what other sellers are asking with ?free? shipping- we strive to have the best total price :-)

We buy most of our items from estate sales and other outside sources, so we can not promise you that an item comes from a ?smoke free? home. We try very hard to make sure anything we sell is clean and does not contain odors , but if you are an individual who is extra-sensitive to any odor please contact us before purchasing. Paper items over 50 years old almost always have some age related odors, so we can?t promise odor-free , but we won?t sell items that smell (at all ) of tobacco 

We always post as many photos as possible to give you the views you need to see any possible flaws, and to help you decide if the item for sale is right for you. We DO NOT use "stock" photos- what you see in the photos is what we will be sending to you.

We often pack our sales in clean, recycled boxes and packing materials. It?s our little way to keep these items out of the landfill for another use, and helps keep our prices as low as possible :-)

USPS shipping only.

Thank You For Looking!

Roadypig (Todd and Lisa Wilson)
