OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. In the unlikely instance that you feel the need to open a resolution dispute before working with us, you will immediately be blocked from any further chance 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. Please keep in mind 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 and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback.
We use a VPI 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.

CLEAN 1965 FIRST PRESSING 360 SOUND COLLECTIBLE! The BYRDS Turn Turn Turn
USA - Columbia 360 Sound - CL 2454 - MONO
*** CLEAN *** STILL IN ORIGINAL FACTORY SHRINK WRAPPER ORIGINAL 1965 FIRST PRESSING on the highly collectible 360 Sound Columbia label... The scarce mono pressing offers different song mixes from the steero oissue and also contains the full punchy producton which also differs from stereo <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Basically, this album is Mr. Tambourine Man, with then, newly written classics. The great sound is still there, but any improvements from the debut would have to come in the form of microscopic details that have completely passed by. It really seems be when listening to this album that the band suffered from a typical problem that accompanies bands with a great debut, namely a fear while going into the studio for their second album of risking losing their acclaim and fanbase by changing their style and approach too greatly, and thus rigidly forcing themselves to a relatively narrow scope of artistic approaches. One gets the image of the guys finishing the recording for these tracks and instead of going, "Yeah, that was really good!" saying, "Whew, people who liked our first album should like this too." EVERYBODY in this world has heard their cover of Turn! Turn! Turn!, which definitely deserves all of the massive airplay and accolades it's gotten over the years. Most Byrds fans are quite fond of The World Turns All Around Her, a point on the album where the band really reaches beyond the debut in terms of quality. The main riff is this great simple-yet-anthemic thing, the vocal melody is pure genius, and the harmonies ... wow -- the harmonies are always great with these guys, but for whatever reason, the structuring of the parts are more than usual here. Lay Down Your Weary Tune is an interesting tune that has the advantage of coming early in the album, and He Was a Friend of Mine is a Byrds classic as well as the lesser mentioned but just as powerfully addicting tunes, "It Won't Be Wrong, A Satisfied Mind and Set You Free This Time.
Side 1
CONDITION: The Cover: STIFF and sharp over all parts = MINT still in original factory shrink wrapper = solid everywhere ... With NO problems anywhere...flat, square, no bends, no writing, no split seams The Vinyl: is all glossy clean "EX" (excellent)...has a little touch of light hair scuffs due to inner paper sleeve so expect the deep grooved pressing to play outstandingly clean and vibrant with no surface interference = an item we would keep in our own collection! ...CLEAN =MONO=Columbia labels
keeper! A GREAT ADDITION TO ANYONE'S COLLECTION ! SEE: SELLERS OTher items for similar cool sounds for "head" people... EFFICIENT/CAREFUL GRADING All imperfections are noted both cover & record
