ABOUT ME

As you can see I'm very much new to ebay. I will be starting off with a nice classical collection. There will be some really rare titles coming up within the next month, so please bookmark and be sure to check my auctions again. Thanks!

I have been selling records for more than 20 years on a local basis. I am a collector myself and will do my best to give you the service that I'd want for myself: Accurate grading & descriptions + secure packing.

Contact me if you have any questions. Please check my other auctions here.

Bidders with less than ten feedback points will have their bids cancelled if they don't contact me first and get an Ok!

GRADING

My grades are:

M
M-
VG++
VG+
VG
VG-
G
F

My highest grade is reserved for sealed records or guaranteed unplayed stock only. So M- will play and look as new. My most frequent grade is the VG++. VG++ will guarantee you a really fine record. Also I try to note all flaws in my item description!!!!! What you read is what you get. No hidden faults. Therefore please also check the photos, it may sound worse than it looks.

Any visible marks will be checked to see if audible. If record looks as if unplayed I do not always playcheck them, I just don't have the time. If record is playchecked it's stated in the item description. More expensive records will most probably be playchecked though. Any questions about this? Ask me!

Mistakes with grading will no doubt occur at some point. I try to be as accurate as possible but I'm only human (unfortunately!). Be sure to contact me if anything's wrong. Of course I will accept returns if you disagree with my grading and will give money back when record is returned to me in the same shape as it was when it left me.

ITEM DESCRIPTION

Artist: Arthur Grumiaux, solo violin

Title: J.S. Bach "6 sonaten und partiten fur violine allein"

Label: PHILIPS - 3 LP-Box - A 02205-07

Issue: Made in Holland

Year: 19??

CONDITION

Record: All three records look very fine mostly MINT-, I could see one mark but that didn't make any sound. I dropped the needle at random and could not hear anything except light static. VG++ for all three records. Labels are maroon and also in very fine condition, VG++ all over.

Cover/Box: A difficult grading. All three sleeves has 5-7 cm seamsplits, two of the sleeves on the top seam and the third has the split on the bottom seam. Also, on all three covers the colour from the record labels has produced a maroon circle that's mostly visible on the front and less on the back. Other than this all three covers are in great shape. I still give them a VG+(+), I think that the colouring from the labels is very common on this particular release so it should not affect the grading that much. The box is very fine, a small mark on the back, but corners are sharp and spine is perfect. VG++

Details: The box shows no record number, so I'm quoting the numbers on the records/sleeves. Record numbers are as follows: L 02.205 L (But label says A 02205 L) , A 02206 L and L 02.207 L (But label says A 02207 L).

SHIPPING

First of all, PLEASE ignore any other prices regarding shipping costs except what is stated right below in this column.

I use strong new boxes for shipping. I always remove the record from the sleeve and seal them both in a plastic sleeve. I also add extra cardboard inside the package to protect the record.

Yes, I will wait for you to add extra titles for combined shipping. Ask me first though! I charge actual shipping costs, what the Swedish post charges me. I can't charge you less! Airmail only, it's not possible to send surface mail from Sweden. The prices you can check by consulting the Swedish Postal Service.

Shipping costs within Europe:

1 LP: 11 USD
2-3 LP's: 17 USD
4-7 LP's: 27 USD

Shipping costs outside Europe:

1 LP: 13USD
2-3 LP's: 24 USD
4-7 LP's: 37 USD

These prices may vary a little but are correct for your average weight record. Boxed sets differ somewhat of course. I can't be responsible if your package gets lost in the mail, sorry! It has never happened to me but you never know. For your safety I strongly urge you to choose registered mail. NOTE: Italian and french bidders will have to pay for registered mail, too many packages seem to get "lost" there.

PAYMENT

Please wait for my invoice. Payment is expected within 7 days after you receive invoice. Exceptions can be made but please contact me about this before you bid. Paypal for buyers outside of Europe. Iban-transfer or paypal for Europe. Bank transfer for Swedish customers.
