Zappa Collection-----------------------------
If you wish to buy more than one record to save on shipping, just send me a note so I know. Thanks. I will be listing about 30 Zappa records over the next 4 days, and when I'm done I will state as much. Thank you for your interest. When I start listing my Van Der Graaf records, I'll be done with my Zappa records, thanks for your interest and patience.
Booklet: EX some fingerprints visible on black print on outside.
Poster: EX with some foxing on plain white back. Has been folded all this time, just be careful opening it up. It is not torn now, but the crease is strong!
Jacket: VG+ Some ringwear ( more on back than front), some light shop/shelf wear on corners. Some small tears at bottom and top of seam.
Inner Sleeve: VG plain white sleeve wrinkles sun fading small seam split.
Disc: Disc 1 is VG+ with some light paper scuffing, ... Disc 2 has more paper scuffs almost looks like streaks, G+ plays all the way through without skips or scratch sound, but does have more tics and pops than a VG+. Still enjoyable.
I noticed that in some of the pictures there appears to be flaws in the vinyl. These are reflections. I list flaws, and if it could be seen in my pics it would be a poor condition throwaway!
I also do not clean the records. This allows you to choose the best method to clean them yourself, and also keeps the price to you down. If I cleaned them, it might disguise a defect!
Records are visually graded under good light source, using the Goldmine standard. If a very rare record is being listed with lots of wear, I will have to play grade it, and will mention that in the listing. I know and love the Goldmine standard, and have been using it for 30 years. I don't like sellers that just list the grade, without the detail. I try to list the various defects (if any) so you should not be surprised when you get your record.
I will charge media mail shipping on one record, and if you buy more than one I will not charge any additional shipping. This may require some trickery to get through the checkout process. In the past I have had to put the overage in the box being shipped, lately I have figured out how to return the overage through paypal. Records over $200 I will pay insurance and bump it up to Priority Mail.
U.S.A. sales only. I do not do international sales. I am not engaged in business. I am selling my personal records for my kids tuition. I sometimes can't answer email right away, but usually can answer within 24 hours.
Shipping is a pain in the gluteus maximus, and the media rate doesn't cover the time and material to box the records. USPS is the only way I can ship. If these minimal rules don't agree with you, please don't bid!
