Description

Elvis Presley double 7" 45 r.p.m. EP

 

Side 1: Blue Suede Shoes/I'm Counting On You

Side 2: I Got a Woman/One-Sided Love Affair

Side 3: Tutti Frutti/Tryin' to Get to You

Side 4: I'm Gonna Sit Right Down and Cry/I'll Never Let You Go

 

The first condition note that needs to be mentioned is that the first disc (which has sides 1 & 4) has a small, 1/4-inch crack at the outer edge of the vinyl. See Photo 4. It causes an audible click for about the first 20 seconds or so of each side before fading out.

 

Here are the other condition notes:

 

vinyl visual grade: other than the crack on disc 1, both vinyls grade visually as VG

 

vinyl play grade: all four sides start out as VG, but then improve to VG+ by the second song (or even better for sides 2 and 3)  

 

labels: all four are pushing NM-, with no stickers or writing and just some light wear

 

gatefold sleeve: NM- (strong seams, just some minor corner wear, no stickers or writing, no ring wear)

 

A NOTE ABOUT MY FEEDBACK: Right now it is top-heavy with feedback for selling kids clothes, and you have to hunt for vinyl feedback. Jump to page 11 or so, and you will get to where it is mostly feedback for selling records. The point being, bid with confidence!

 

Shipping is $4 in the U.S., $8 to Canada, and $12 to Europe. If international shipping turns out to be significantly less-expensive than what I quote here, I will give a partial refund of shipping cost.

 

If you would like insurance, please let me know and I will add $2 to the shipping cost.

 

I grade visually using the following guidelines:

 

Vinyl:
S = sealed

M = opened but perfect in all details
NM =  one or perhaps two minor problems at the most that should not affect sound (i.e. paper scuff, spindle mark at center hole, fingernail scratch on label, non- removable fingerprint or previous sticker glue)
NM– =  two or three of the above problems, maybe a slight, unraised hairline scratch (can’t be felt with a fingernail). In other words, a couple of visible defects that should not affect sound
VG+ = more scuffs and a few slightly visible scratches that should affect the sound minimally at most, but no deep scratches
VG = noticeable scratches and scuffs that will most likely be heard when played
VG– = more serious surface scratches or multiple defacing problems or slight groove depth scratch 
G = it just gets worse from here and it would be rare for me to list a record in this condition

Covers:

S = sealed

M = absolutely perfect in every way

NM = should have no creases, folds, seam splits, or cut-out holes, just the slightest signs of age

NM– = like above, but with slightly more sign of age

VG+ = no more than three flaws that have to be explained, such as small writing, more noticeable ring wear, and slight wear to the seams

VG = has writing, stickers, or seam splitting, and looks obviously worn, but the artwork still looks decent

G = significantly more than normal wear and tear, but it still holds the record and isn’t ready for the garbage can

Less than G would be rare for me to list unless the vinyl was in significantly better shape 

 

I do my best to be honest and conservative with my visual grading. If, after receiving the record, you feel that it was not described accurately, I do accept returns within seven days of when they were received by the buyer. Return shipping is paid by the buyer. Once I receive the record, I will refund the original purchase price, including the original shipping cost.
