......................................
I've relisted this LP since I forgot to indicate it is a STEREO copy in the first listing.
I ship using standard LP mailers with the record secured outside of the cover to avoid seam splits.
Domestic shipping includes tracking and insurance. Records are shipped approximately 3-5 days after your payment clears.
International shipping is $29 by Registered Mail for LPs selling for $75 or less. If the final price is over $75, then shipping will be by Priority for $39 which is the only service that allows full tracking and insurance from the U.S. No exceptions.
……………………….
I began buying records in the mid 60’s and I've always been fanatical about record care and storage.
The records I sell are from my personal collection, including backup copies. I've never been one to buy VG records or anything with an audible scratch, which eliminates the vast majority.
Over the decades, I've seen grading fads come and go, such as: “visual” grading by people who don't own a turntable; the current use of nonsense grades like NM+ and NM- as well as the dubious belief that there’s no such thing as a mint record.
I use standard US grading plus the UK grade of EX in order to eliminate the dreaded VG+++.
Records are first inspected under a halogen light (the only light that shows every flaw) and any blemishes are examined with a 10x power magnifier which allows the grooves to be fully inspected; then they’re play graded on a Linn Sondek LP12.
As a record buyer, I've had a lot of over graded “garage sale” LPs arrive covered with gritty dust and greasy fingerprints while the seller claims a “visual” grade based on fantasy. Be assured that my records will arrive clean and fingerprint free.
If I do miss an audible flaw, then kindly contact me and it will be rectified.
