Description
The following Information is from the album, label and any inserts, and my observations (if any):
ESK7906-A, ESK7906-B, The inner sleeve is torn on the back, Ralph Records, The record is pressed in white vinyl.
This is part of the estate of an audiophile. The records in this collection have been in storage since 1987. They are being sold for the widow. I am not an audiophile!! I believe them to be in very good condition but I am not qualified to judge them. I have not played any of them in part because I don't have expensive stereo equipment and don't want to damage them. They are sold as I found them without any attempt to clean them or "doll them up".
I have been e-mailed about other records in the collection. I get them a little at a time and don't know in advance what I'll be getting.
I plan to have three auctions a week until they're gone. Usually on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday or Saturday. This will take some time as there are several records.

I think I might have international shipping worked out. I charge actual postage + $2.00 for shipping. Typical shipping so far is about $12.00 to $13.00 for an lp sandwiched between 2 pieces of cardboard and sent in an envelope via airmail letter post. I can try surface shipping if requested by buyer which drops it to somewhere around $8.00. They told me at the post office that it can take as long as 8 weeks. That is a long time to have a record in an envelope bouncing around and I wouldn't advise it. I welcome any advise on reducing the cost of international shipping from those with experience.
I receive no delivery confirmation unless the buyer requests registered airmail, at their own expense, so my responsibility ends when I take it to the post office. If this is not acceptable please don't bid.
I think all of my domestic shipping is more secure than most. If you are patient enough for media mail I add slightly more protection due to the reduced rate for a bigger package. With media mail shipping I don't receive enroute information. My standard International shipping is just sandwiching the record between two pieces of cardboard and mailing in a "bubble envelope". If more secure shipping is requested I will ship more securely but the cost is substantially higher to the buyer. If requested I will remove the records from the sleeves to reduce imprinting (as advised by one of my more experienced buyers).
I have been asked occasionally to pull items off auction and sell them direct. I will not do that.
I will not falsify customs values (or anything else).

Effective now I am dropping the $2.00 surcharge for international shipping. It was there to cover unforseen expenses that didn't materialize.
International Shipping
I charge actual postage for an lp sandwiched between 2 pieces of cardboard and sent in a "bubble envelope" via airmail letter post. As of this writing that has averaged $10.23 U.S. per shippment, sometimes one album sometimes up to three. (Lower for Canada and higher overseas). I welcome any advise on reducing the cost of international shipping from those with experience.
I receive no delivery confirmation unless the buyer requests registered airmail, at their own expense, so my responsibility ends when I take it to the post office. If this is not acceptable please don't bid.
