Description

Stax Records, "Born Under a Bad Sign" with Albert King, from 1967.  This is an original yellow-label issue.  Vinyl plays at NM with virtually no background sound.  Jacket has strong seams with very little wear; there is only slight corner wear; there are some discoloring spots, probably from humidity, on both front and back (see scan).  This is Albert King's all-time classic album.  Songs include title track, "Crosscut Saw", "Kansas City", "Oh, Pretty Woman", "Down Don't Bother Me", "The Hunter", "I Almost Lost My Mind", Personal Manager", "Laundromat Blues", "As the Years Go Passing By", "The Very Thought of You".  Shipping is $4.00 media mail, $7.00 priority mail in the continental U.S.; $15.00 airmail for Europe, Australia, Japan, and Korea; elsewhere inquire.  Insured priority shipping required for Italy and Brazil.  As a collector myself, I dislike sub-quality packaging as much as any other eBayer does.  Individual records will be shipped in special, handcrafted mailers unlike the usual type in three ways: (1) They are significantly larger all around and padded around the edges to prevent corner bumps to the jacket; (2) they are padded on both sides of the record with styro sheets or thick cardboard sheets to prevent damage to the record surface; (3)  they are constructed of heavier-duty cardboard than normal LP mailers to provide further protection.  All used LPs are shipped with record securely inside an inner sleeve but outside the jacket to prevent seam splitting in transit; our innovative padded packaging will prevent seam splitting for new, sealed LPs.  The end product is designed to withstand a drop from a second-story window with no damage (though I will not test it with your package).  No record should arrive in a condition worse than described!  Multiple LPs are shipped in BagsUnlimited pizza-style boxes that are larger around than LPs and will also be well padded.
