RITCHIE VALENS - 78 rpm "La Bamba/Donna" CANADIAN Apex label, NM/NM

$

305

This is a gorgeous NM/NM copy of the Ritchie Valens classic "La Bamba" b/w "Donna" on the CANADIAN Apex label. The record retains a terrific luster on both sides, with only a few superficial, barely visible sleeve scuffs on the "La Bamba" side, and playback is loud and clear, with little to no surface noise and no skips. There are no edge chips, cracks or deep scratches and the record is not warped. This is the nicest copy of this rare and highly collectible record I've ever seen.

SHIPPING: FOR SINGLE TITLES, AIRMAIL FROM CANADA TO THE US IS 15.67 US, SURFACE IS 12.66 US. SINGLE TITLE AIRMAIL FROM CANADA TO THE UK AND EUROPE IS 36.00 US. SURFACE IS CHEAPER, BUT MUCH SLOWER (3-6 WEEKS). SHIPPING WITHIN CANADA, DEPENDING ON LOCATION, IS 11.00 – 22.00 US.

Your record(s) will arrive gently sandwiched between rigid 10X10 inch slabs of cardboard wrapped in double layers of bubble wrap, all of which is then cocooned in Styrofoam pellets in a sturdy 12X12X6 inch box. There are slightly cheaper shipping methods, but the increased depth of the box goes a long way toward insuring the safe arrival of your purchase(s). Having on numerous occasions gone through the disappointment of losing terrific 78s to inadequate packaging, I feel it's more than worth the extra few bucks.

PAYPAL ONLY PLEASE.

I am happy to combine up to 4 records in one order to save shipping costs.

I've been a 78 rpm collector for many years and know how to handle, accurately grade and--most importantly--how to safely package these fragile beauties for shipping.

If you are unhappy with your purchase and wish to return it, please let me know. I will provide a full refund, including postage, for any reasonable complaint, provided the record is returned to me in the same condition you received it in AND is shipped back in the same container.

Please keep an eye on this page for future posts. I'm thinning a very large collection of Rock & Roll and Doo Wop 78s and will be adding new batches as often as eBay allows. My plan is to ship all purchases once a week.

Thanks for looking and good luck!
