IMPORTANT - If you win more than one auction or are shipping to an address outside the U.S., please wait for an invoice before paying. This will allow me to combine shipping and lower your cost.
Returns: Any LP which you feel was improperly graded may be returned for full refund of the cost of the LP.
Please have a look at my other listings. I have many collectible classical records on auction.
Shipping: Your cost will be my cost for mailing plus a $1.75 charge for shipping materials. LPs will be shipped in protective mailers. The least expensive option for domestic (U.S.) shipping is media mail.
For international shipping, please wait for an invoice to see your options. For packages of 4 lb. or less, Pirate Ship Simple Export Rate will be the most economical. For example, sending 1 or 2 records (2 lbs. or less) anywhere in the world will cost $22.74 (Canada $18.74) + $1.35 per $100 insurance. (Maximum value $400) I no longer ship via USPS First Class International. If you choose this service, I will instead use Pirate Ship Simple Export Rate.
International buyers please note - Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or postage cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility.
Grading Scale Sealed Cover and LP sealed in shrink wrap. This record is not graded and is sold as is. NM Looks and plays as new. NM- Has one or two visible marks like very light scratches or sleeve scuffs that do not affect play. Plays close to NM. VG++ Has a few visible marks like very light scratches or sleeve scuffs that do not affect play. Plays close to NM. VG+ Some, but not many, visible marks, like light scratches or sleeve scuffs. Vinyl might have discolorations. Will play cleanly but perhaps with a few light ticks. VG The same imperfections as above, but in greater quantity. There will likely be periods of ticking. Anything worse than light ticking will be described. Any record VG or better will have no deep scratches. VG- The record has very many light imperfections or has deep scratches or both. I will not offer such a record for sale unless it is very old or rare, or the play grade is significantly better. The damage will be described. G+/G/G- These records have some serious damage.
A grade like VG+/VG means "borderline".
Please realize that all record grading is subjective. I try my very best to give an honest grade.
