Uninsured parcels 4 pounds and below are sent via the Letter-Post rate (formerly "Small Packet Rate"). The post office is only responsible for the insured declared value of a package. Any package sent uninsured is not eligible for refund if lost. ********Paid***** orders may be stockpiled to reduce shipping charges. Airmail rates will be quoted on request. We also offer DHL air shipments overseas (ask for rates). We must have a phone or fax number for DHL shipments. We guarantee receipt of all records in satisfactory condition. If customers choose to declare records at less than their full value, we can be responsible ONLY for the declared value.

SPECIAL NOTES

Foreign customers will notice drastic increases in surface shipping costs for small parcels, which result entirely from increases in the U.S. Postal Service's rates. In some cases airmail rates for small parcels are actually lower, in which cases we will use this service. In compensation, the rate on larger parcels will be lower. Foreign customers may want to pay for records and then have us stockpile them until we can ship a larger, more economical package.

Grading Details

This listing of records is graded according to the following system:

• FS = factory sealed;
• M = mint; never played;
• A = used, showing no visible wear or damage;
• A- = used, very slightest wear;
• B = used, showing some wear; may have added surface noise, but no groove damage or scratches;
• C = heavily rubbed, and/or with light scratches.

ADDITIONAL CODES USED IN THIS LIST: AS = also issued in genuine stereo; BJ = blank jacket; COH = cut-out hole in jacket; D = digital recording; Df = Dynaflex (thin) pressing; EAR = early pressing; EP = English pressing; F = fake stereo; FOT = few odd ticks; LSM = harmless light surface marks; PB = pressing bubble(s); Q = quad; S = stereo; SD = "shaded dog" label; FS = Factory Sealed; TE = "thrift edition" (no program notes); WD = "white dog" label; x = light scratch.

Any other defects will be described in detail. We do not knowingly sell records which will not track properly. No ratings can guarantee quiet surfaces unless the original pressing had them. Condition ratings apply to the records only; wear or damage on the jackets are described only when they are severe.
