Please see additional terms
below, and please
see my store for more items!
----------------------------------------------------------
Thanks for your interest!
REGARDING ALL ITEMS:
PACKAGING:
All of my items, regardless
of format, are first wrapped in a plastic liner to protect against liquids,
then wrapped in cushioning material (that is, if appropriate for the item) to
protect against shocks, and finally placed in cardboard (or a cardboard box) to
protect against punctures and sharp objects.
SHIPPING:
Sorry for the inconvenience
in advance, but I add USPS Signature Confirmation to all U.S. orders over
$75. This extra service is at my
expense.
ISSUES: I am confident you
will be 100% happy with this sale.
However, none of us are perfect, so if you are unhappy in any way with
your product, please reach out to me BEFORE leaving negative or neutral
feedback. I will always try my best to correct any mistakes I might make!
REGARDING NON-VINYL
AUDIO MEDIA:
GRADING:
If you are new to collecting
physical audio media, please research the Goldmine grading system before
purchasing from me, since my goal is to conform to this standard. From best to worst condition, the grades I
use are:
NM (Near Mint),
VG+ (Very Good Plus),
VG (Very Good),
G+ (Good Plus),
G (Good),
F (Fair),
P (Poor).
I do not use the Goldmine
grades Mint (M) or Excellent (EX, or VG++).
As you can see,
"Good" and "Fair" are not as "Good" or
"Fair" as you may have expected!
PLAY TESTING AND CLEANING:
Please assume that the audio
media has not been play tested or cleaned unless explicitly stated in the
description. I sometimes may test isolated passages , e.g. to test surface
noise, but this does not necessarily mean that I play tested the media in its
entirety, unless I explicitly state this in my comments. I sometimes clean the media I sell, but this
is at my sole discretion, so please do not expect your items to be
professionally cleaned.
PACKAGING:
For unsealed CDs housed in a
standard jewel case, I will place a small piece of bubble wrap over the disc
before closing the case. This will help
minimize the chance of the CD coming loose from its hub during shipment. Likewise, for unsealed cassette tapes, I will
place small cardboard pieces in the reels to minimize jostling in the cassette
shell.
REGARDING SEALED
ITEMS:
Purchasing a sealed item
carries with it an inherent risk. If I
list a sealed package for sale, I cannot be responsible for unseen damage to the
contents inside, including but not limited to:
* Seam splits that may occur
as a direct result of shipping a sealed vinyl record
* A damaged, counterfeit, or
wrong release placed inside an item's packaging and then resealed at some point
before its coming into my possession
* Manufacturer defects or
errors of any kind
