 MADONNA

Like A Virgin Promo LP on WHITE "virgin" Vinyl. Includes Ultra Rare Press Kit.

If you were a music reviewer, this was the kit you received back in 1985. There is nothing like this on eBay. There is another auction which was the standard press release that went to magazines and newspapers without a music reviewer on staff which means you got a glossy 8x10 and the 3 page press release. You will be bidding on the music reviewer's package. Imagine sitting at your desk & Madonna's Like A Virgin shows up in the mail. Any true audiophile knows that colored vinyl is not the vinyl of choice for high sound quality, but this was a rather impressive gimmick. WHITE VIRGIN VINYL. A gimmick that Madonna used a few times to great success, but none more appropriate than this staple of 1980's pop.

This and every other record I am putting up for auction are from my personal collection. I don't go digging through thrift stores or garage sales hoping to swoop on some poor schlub's beat to crap collection. I take care of my own & will attempt to advertise it to the best of my abilities. If it has a scratch, I will tell you. If there's a bizarre stain on the sleeve, I will tell you. If there's an inner sleeve, there will be a picture of it included. If the record is black, I won't take a picture of it unless there's something vital on the label I want you to see. Each and every one of these items has been stored for the past 20 or more years in a smoke-free home. No tobacco, weed or fireplaces.

PAYMENT: If you win an auction, do the right thing. Either issue me payment when the auction ends OR let me know you’re bidding on some of my other cool sh*t OR wait until I invoice you. Really, why should I have to chase you down when you bid on something you obviously want. If it’s a mistake, let me know. Some like to play ‘hide’n’seek’…grow up.

SHIPPING: If you buy more than one item, I will only charge you more to ship if it costs me more. If you buy a ton of crap from me, I will cut you a deal on shipping. I just want to be fair all around. Check out my feedback...it speaks for itself.

RETURNS: I don't do them. Everything is either protected through Ebay or the Post Office, so I don't like to reward impulse bidding. If something gets trashed in the mail, don't worry, it's covered. If you are totally unhappy for some strange reason....like I shipped you the wrong item (hasn't happened yet, knock on wood), I've got your back. Don't worry.

FEEDBACK: I promise to leave you feedback if you pay. If you buy multiple items, you will get multiple feedback. I know it doesn't count past the first item, but it's important you know I appreciate your business. If I didn't need to sell the stuff, I wouldn't. Times are tough & my loss is your gain.
