Record Grading   NM Both records in this 2LP set are in beautiful condition.  High gloss and NO discernible spindle wear (see label pic).  Records have been stored properly in original DGG poly-lined sleeves. Low play count (if any).  
Jacket Grading    EX+ Jacket is in fine shape.  No writing, no tape, no split seams. Marked down general wear & fraying along all edges & corners (jacket "mouth" and bottom seam most prominently).  Some faint ring-wear emerging around 6 and 12 o'clock on back cover. Some aging/discoloration along edges of back cover.  I've provided close-up pics of anything that may be considered a blemish. "Printed in Germany 4/66"
Overall Grading   A strong EX++ for this amazing performance & recording.  Vinyl is in beautiful condition and appears to be unplayed (both LPs).  Original liners.  All quality markdowns are jacket-related.

 

 

Shipping Policy:
All LPs are secured with bubble-wrap and carefully placed in proper mailers with specialized cardboard inserts for reinforcement. LPs will be shipped in their inner sleeve, stored outside of the record jacket to avoid damage in transit. Box sets are mailed with the LPs remaining inside, after placing thin sheets of packing paper or bubble-wrap inside to further reduce movement of contents.      I am happy to combine auction items to reduce your shipping costs.  However, if you want multiple items to be mailed in one package DO NOT PAY until you are done bidding.    I mail purchased items very quickly, typically same day, but ONLY to the address specified in the original request.    
Return Policy:
Please read my return policy carefully before bidding. It will minimize surprises and misunderstandings.
1.  My shipping costs are nonrefundable.  Return shipping costs are the buyers responsibility. 
2.  My listings include high resolution, close-up photos taken under bright light. Please review them before making bidding decisions. I am happy to send additional photos upon request. 
3.  Returns may be requested up to 30 days after item is delivered.  Refunds will be issued only after the returned item is in hand and confirmed to be in the same condition as pictured in the original listing. SEALED ITEMS MUST BE RETURNED SEALED. "NEVER PLAYED" RECORDS MUST BE RETURNED UN-PLAYED. 
4.  When purchasing "never played" records, you may see remnants from the original packaging process on the LP.  My policy is to let you clean this off with your own equipment. Experienced collectors know that fine cardboard dust or bits of paper from the original sleeve are the most reliable signs that a record has never been played.  For more information on this topic visit the websites of a trusted RCM manufacturer such as VPI, Record Doctor, Okki Nokki, or Nitty Gritty.

Please enjoy this music with family, friends and loved ones!!
