• CONDITION (OF THE MAGAZINE): LIKE NEW | MINT | SEALED.

The MAGAZINE & accompanying MUSIC CD protected by this sealing are themselves in MINT, UNOPENED condition.
• CONDITION (OF THE ACCOMPANYING MUSIC CD): LIKE NEW | MINT | SEALED. Unopened & protected by original plastic sealing.
• WHY WE CAN’T SEND MAGAZINES USING MEDIA:
On the USPS (United States Postal Service) website, under “MEDIA MAIL SERVICE [Notice 121],” the following statement can be found: “Media Mail Packages May Not Contain Advertising.”
Therefore, because the magazine we are selling here contains Advertising, we cannot ship it to you using Media Mail & must use a more expensive option.
Meanwhile: Sellers who use Media Mail to send out magazines (or journals) that contain Advertising are doing so illegally. It’s that simple.
(The reason books—or vinyl records, etc.—can be sent through Media Mail is that most of them don’t contain advertising.)
Sellers who misuse Media Mail are toying with federal authorities & risk running afoul of them. On the same USPS website quoted above, this statement can also be found: “Media Mail Packages are subject to inspection by the Postal Service.”

FLAPPINCAT’s
HOUSE RULES
***********
1. GENERAL TREATMENT. We enjoy treating FLAPPINCAT customers with honesty & respect & warmth because that’s how we like to be treated when we buy things on eBay.
2. GENERAL ATTITUDE. We are grateful you choose to trust us with your business. We aim for that gratitude to permeate every part of how we engage with you.
3. OUR DESCRIPTIONS. We describe every item we sell as clearly and accurately as we can. When it comes to describing condition, we tend toward being conservative.
4. PACKING & SHIPPING. We know from experience that items, when not thoughtfully packed, can be damaged during shipment. To avoid that real danger, FLAPPINCAT wraps & cushions your purchase(s) mindfully—and sometimes zealously—in a sturdy package.
WARNING: In our zeal, we sometimes over-tape containers and you may need a penknife to unseal our shipments.
NOTE: Though we often recycle shipping materials, we do NOT stint on protection.
5. OUR PRICES. We try to offer the lowest prices on eBay for items we sell. Even our most expensive offerings tend to be lower than what others are asking.
“You could look it up!” —to quote baseball immortal JACK KEEFE.
SUMMARY: We know you have many buying options on eBay. FLAPPINCAT tries to be distinctive by being accurate, mindful, and friendly.

How We
GRADECONDITION
***********
DETAILS. The condition of every item we sell will be described in detail.
FLAWS. All discernible flaws will be noted, if not emphasized.
Of course, the grading of condition can be subjective. And since no grader is perfect, it is possible that we may at times miss a flaw.
It is also possible that we may miss some perfections!
Should we make a mistake, you will find FLAPPINCAT eager to fix things with you. Just send us a note and we’ll get on it.
GRADING SYSTEM. For books and magazines (and even other items), we use these terms (in order of desirability):
VERY FINE or LIKE NEW
FINE (or EXCELLENT)
NEAR FINE (or NF)
VERY GOOD PLUS (or VG+)
VERY GOOD (or VG)
GOOD
FAIR
ACCEPTABLE
POOR
“POOR.” Except in rare cases, for rare items, we tend to avoid selling items that are in utterly “POOR” condition. It is more likely that on a rare item, only one part of an item (out of numerous parts) will be described as “POOR.”
RETURNS. We accept that you may wish to return a purchase because you genuinely think we haven't described and graded its condition properly. We accept that we our* imperfect. We also accept that people can see things differently—and still be civil!
(*Get it?)
POP QUIZ. Please feel free to ask questions at any time about condition (or anything else, except math).
EXTRA VISUALS. Although we include multiple photographs in our listings, we usually have others we could share with you. (These extra photos also help to establish a paper-trial in the rare case that an item is damaged en route to you.)
***********
