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: David Oistrakh and the French National Radio Orchestra conducted by Otto Klemperer

Title: Brahms “Violin concerto in D major, Op.77”

Label: Columbia Records – SAX 2411

Issue: Made in England – Ed1 – Blue/Silver

Year: 1961

CONDITION

Record: Looks remarkably fine. Plays with a minimum of disturbance, in the silent passages you can hear slight static but not disturbing at all. Easily VG++, conservative grading.

Cover: VG+. Upper left corner has been bent causing a break in the lamination and a small portion is missing. Lamination is otherwise intact except for some very negligible wear on the edges. Upper right corner has a dent and there is a touch of ringwear on the back.

Details: Difficult to find SAX-title. I will be listing more titles featuring the great David Oistrakh, including a very fine copy of SAX 2253 “Encores”.

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! If your combined winnings exceed 100 GBP I must insist on registered mail, which means an extra cost but also the possibility of tracking your package. This is because I need to guard myself against the (few) imposters that bid on records and then claim they have not received the package. 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: 12 USD
2-3 LP's: 21 USD
4-7 LP's: 31 USD

Shipping costs outside Europe:

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

Please note: 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, sorry! If you feel that this is unfair, then contact me and maybe we'll come to a solution.

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.
