***PLEASE READ THE S/H SECTION BELOW***
The condition of this vinyl is VG++ / Canadian pressing / 1979 / Columbia FC 35730 / Orig. inner w/ lyrics, gatefold cover
***GRADING IS ON VINYL ONLY***
I'll try to make note of covers that are in really awesome or very poor condition but most are typical of 20-40 year old cardboard.
GOLDMINE STANDARD RATINGS:
M = Mint. Never played; possibly in original factory seal.
NM = Near Mint. Record shows no obvious signs of wear. LP jacket has no creases, folds, seam splits or cut-outs.
VG+ = Very Good Plus. Record may have light scuffs or very light scratches that don't effect listening experience. LP jacket may have slight ring wear or cut-out.
VG = Very Good. Record has more pronounced scuffs and scratches resulting in more surface noise. LP jacket may have writing, stickers, or more noticeable ring wear.
G = Good. Good does not mean bad. Record will be somewhat noisy but will play through without skipping. LP jacket may have seam splits, tape, writing, and ring wear.
SHIPPING CHARGE
Actual shipping cost for 1-2 records (BEFORE HANDLING CHARGE) is about $8.00 to $12.00 in CANADA and about $11.00 to $14.00 to the USA. (EXPEDITED PARCEL SERVICE.) As you add more records to your package, the s/h cost does not increase by much and your over-all price-per-record is lower.
NOTE: I WILL NOT USE THE SMALL PACKET USA SERVICE FROM CANADA POST BECAUSE THEY DO NOT PROVIDE A TRACKING # WITH THIS SERVICE.
***ALL RECORDS WILL BE SHIPPED VIA CANADA POST EXPEDITED PARCEL TO GET THE TRACKING # ~ NO EXCEPTIONS***
Shipping rate can be calculated at www.canadapost.ca using V8C2J1 as originator's postal code. (These records will ship from a warehouse in Northern BC.)
The weight of 1 record with packaging is generally .520KG (520 grams) and measures 33cm X 33cm X 2cm (L, W, H.) To calculate shipping cost for more records add weight of .380 KG (380 grams) per record and 0.5 cm per record to the height (H.)
HANDLING CHARGE
I will charge the actual shipping cost PLUS (+) $3.00 handling on first record then add $1.00 handling for each additional record up to a maximum $10.00 handling charge. So you will pay actual shipping cost PLUS somewhere between $3.00 and $10.00 for handling depending on how many records you win. Even if you win 20 records you pay only $10.00 handling.
After 20 auctions, the formula starts over again.
***RECORDS WILL NOT BE SHIPPED IN COMBINATION WITH ANYTHING ELSE FROM THIS LOCATION***
HINT...
You will save greatly by buying your LPs in lots from Canada.
Actual shipping cost for 5 LPs to CALIFORNIA would be APPROXIMATELY $16.00 and if there were 5 auctions ended, the handling would be $3+1+1+1+1 = $7.00 handling for a total of $23.00 s/h. ($4.60 per record)
For 10 LPs, the actual shipping would be about $18.00 and the handling would be $10.00 for a total of $28.00 s/h. ($2.80 per record)
For 15 LPs, the actual shipping would be about $22.00 and the handling would be $10.00 for a total of $32.00 s/h. ($2.13 per record)
For 20 LPs, the actual shipping would be about $26.00 and the handling would be $10.00 for a total of $36.00 s/h. ($1.80 per record)
Your best way to buy from me in lots or multiples of 20. For example; you'll pay the same amount of handling for 8 as you would for 20 or the same handling for 28 as you would for 40 so if you can find 20 or 40 (or 60) that you want that end within 7 days of each other you'll do best.
