"August 28, 1979
To Bottlers Of Coca-Cola
To recapture the sound and spirit of our 'Great Get Together' in San Francisco we have pressed a limited number of this souvenir album.
I hope you will find many occasions to play it, as a reminder of this extraordinary event and out mutual commitment to build even stronger leadership for Coca-Cola in the 1980's. - Brian Dyson"
Unfortunately, due to problems with packages arriving reliably, I can no longer ship to Brazil. So sorry.
A quick note about shipping. My apologies for the current cost of shipping, several years ago eBay determined that shipping costs collected by sellers are a part of the price of a given item, I'm sure this was done with an eye towards having sellers include free shipping in the price of the item. For each purchase you make on eBay, 10% is deducted by eBay in fees and 2.9% is collected by PayPal before I receive payment, these percentages are deducted from the final selling price as well as what you pay for shipping. This means that, for a CD, you pay 3.25 domestically, eBay and Paypal collect 0.39 and I receive 2.86, typically I pay out 2.77 for postage and 0.50 for a mailer for a net loss of 41 cents for every CD I sell. The US Postal Service pricing has skyrocketed, CD's used to ship for about $2.12 to the U.S. and LP's shipped for about $11.00 overseas. Now an LP to the UK, Europe or Asia requires about $20-$21 in postage, so after fees it costs more to ship items than collected. While my overall rating currently is "Top Rated", you may see some slightly lower marks on my Detailed Seller Ratings under "Shipping and handling charges", but I want to express that my pricing is entirely not-for-profit and done with an eye towards charging what a package costs to ship when it goes out the door.
I want to add that I limit my communications with you to answering any questions you have promptly and clearly, I also send an email to let you know I've received your payment and where I'm sending it to (based on the address on your Paypal payment), I don't want to over saturate your email with step by step information about your purchase because I ship really quickly and am usually shipping your package at the time I send you the receipt of payment confirmation. But again, if you need anything, or have any questions or concerns (before or after a purchase), I am more than happy to give you my full attention.
