EMAROSA This is Your Way Out CD New Rare Punk Rock

You might wonder how I am different from other eBayers.  Well, I am one of a very select few that is trying to make eBay greener and more Earth-friendly.  Here’s how I have changed my practices to make the whole thing better for the planet:

1. I reuse bubble mailers.  If they are in terrible shape, I recycle them.  Otherwise, I reuse them to reduce waste in the dumps and landfills.  I strongly urge you to reuse or recycle them when you get them.
2. I buy CDs from warehouses and manufacturers that have slight defects in the outer plastic wrapping (there is absolutely nothing wrong with the disc itself).  I do strip the plastic wrapping and recycle it.  The auctions in which I call the CD “SEALED” but I don’t say plastic wrap intact fit this description.  The sticker along the top of the CD case is still completely intact, keeping the CD sealed.  I have to reiterate that the disc is perfectly A-OK and I just removed the plastic wrap to ensure its safe passage to a recycling plant.  The manufacturers deem these unfit for sale in a normal retail store and would simply cast them off as a manufacturing loss if not for me!
3. I don’t print off tons of paperwork and send it to you in the bubble mailer with the CD.  This is a waste of trees.  I do send a very small thank-you note as a token of my gratitude.
4. I use Paypal and Paypal only.  I don’t accept any other forms of payment.  Electronic payments cut down on wasteful uses of paper. 
5. I ride my bike to the post office.  I am trying to cut down on my carbon footprint and this is another instance where I can use my bike instead of my car.
6. I always carry all my packages in bamboo fiber reusable grocery bags.  This way I don’t pollute landfills and dumps with non-biodegradable plastic bags and the manufacturing process for bamboo bags is less harmful for the environment.

Mailing Packages

I ship as soon as possible on most packages, but please realize that once mailed, the post office is in charge of delivery time and not me.  Also, check my feedback!  I send every package.  There has never been an instance where I kept someone’s money and did not send the CD.  That is just plain dishonest.   When I mail a single CD, it will go first class.  When I mail two or more CDs, they go media mail (to save us both some green).  The cost is $3 for the first CD mailed to a destination in the US.  If you are not in the US, please put your country in the drop-down bar.  Do not email me asking what shipping rates are!!!  Shipping in the US can take ten business days and international shipping can take 35 business days.  Please, please, please, please be patient.

Insurance

It is optional and only available to domestic buyers at this point.  It is $2.00.  If you are unsure about my packaging abilities, please do not hesitate!  Just buy the insurance. 

Feedback

Please do not email me and ask me to leave feedback for you.  If you leave feedback for me, I will do the same for you in return.  I cannot leave you negative, so no worries there.  J   Do not, and I repeat, do not leave me neutral or negative feedback without contacting me first.  I will try to fix the problem.
