Before noting our shipping information below, please take a moment to read the important news concerning the interference of our business of providing top rate collectibles and service to our long term and future customers:
FEEDBACK NOTICE...
For all practical purposes we consider ourselves to have a 100% feedback rating - and hopefully so should you, despite the 9 negative feedbacks we disastrously just received.
We have had the unfortunate experience of a notorious mean spirited (etc.) buyer who purchased many of our weekly listings, when he suddenly became manipulative in handing out unwanted advice which moved into relentless harassment - including threats to issue negative feedback unless demands were met, as in to send him upgrades for records he purchased, exclaiming unreasonable nonexistent issues, as well as his amateur understanding of pressings and labels. In his weekly bidding participation - he keeps the seller paralyzed over his threats of negative feedback "if something is not met in his demands."
We came to a point where this buyer became so abusive using personal attacks with foul language and insults, we declared, never again. He was blocked from our listings. He went berserk, writing and phoning stating 80 percent of our listings met his expectations -- untrue, in reality he complained about everything unless it was upgraded - at our expense -- then attempted to claw his way back to us to become unblocked. When we refused to give in, he followed in a tirade issuing us 9 negative feedbacks (the only negatives on our seller's profile) declaring on each negative potential damaging untrue statements about our merchandise and warning all buyers to stay away. We have a have a distinguished reputation with eBay Records for the past 20 years -he is the only ONE who has made such false claims. Some of the negatives given were absolutely for MINT records, others were SEALED and never opened! This is 100% obvious blatant retaliation for his being blocked, but it didn't end there.
Horrible e-mails have followed after he issued the negatives, ridiculing and gloating that he "got away with damaging our reputation on eBay", and that his goal is to continue to contact eBay and twist their arm in an attempt to get us banned from the site. He claimed he has contacts all over the U.S. and they would continue his dirty work for him. Sure enough, we have confirmed information that a friend of his bid on one of our records to be handed over to the blocked bidder. Because of that, we are anticipating more damaging negative remarks. Now there is an ongoing conspiracy concocted by this buyer in effort to undermine us at all costs by using any measure - all because we had no choice but to exercise our seller's right to block him.
Some other sellers on eBay have contacted us stating the same issues occurred with them by this same bad buyer. Others have contacted asking for his IDs so they can avoid having to sell to this obvious problem buyer. We were noted that he had 4 different alias ID's, with two of them being suspended. Why he is allowed to keep his other two active is a total mystery. In the words of one of the bad buyer's victims "I hope you guys can get him removed off eBay." We are in the process of working with upper management in eBay to rid this parasite from causing further discord in an effort to protect ourselves and the entire eBay community.
In the meantime, our plan is to continue our eBay ID and weekly music service listings designed for all the many great collectors who have supported our reputable hard work for the past 20 years on ebay. We truly appreciate your continued support, and on our part will continue to serve you and not allow this unscrupulous individual interfere with our love of supplying the world with the glue that holds us together....music.

TOP COPY!

NEVER, NEVER SEEN WITH THE MEGA-RARE "TOE-TAG" ON OUTER CELLOPHANE - OBVIOUSLY, THE ULTIMATE COPY!
Original 1972 first pressing vinyl on the scarce first printing lime green label:
Capitol Records printed the lime green labels for only around 18 months (1969-1970 era) therefore the lime green Bloodrock "D.O.A." LP is highly scarce - hard to find and very collectible ...
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
The second album from the hard rockers kicked their career into high gear. Out of left field, the album track of "D.O.A." was picked up by freeform FM radio stations and became an instant classic with it's brooding, macabre subject matter and dark instrumentation. The song was quickly released as a single and the band found themselves on American Top 40 with the biggest hit of their career...
Bloodrock became a hitmaking proposition thanks to the success of "D.O.A." which graphically recounts the last thoughts of a plane-crash victim, became a surprise pop chart hit thanks to its powerfully spooky arrangement. Overall the best moments on Bloodrock 2 are those that go for the spooky feel of the first album: "Fallin'" uses crashing drums and descending riffs to bring the lyric's mood of depression to life, and "D.O.A.," Ultimately, Bloodrock's second album offers solid tracks that appeal to hrdrock fans of the early 70's sound. The band was linked to GRAND FUNK RAILROAD : famed producer Terry Knight was behind the two bands, as a manager and a spiritual adviser too. BLOODROCK's compositions are thick and massive, their songs are well-written and technically convincing.
