MAC REBENNACK DR. JOHN 45 ON AFO INCREDIBLY RARE

$

150

THIS 10-DAY LISTING HAD AN INITIAL BID PLACED IN ITS FIRST 12 HOURS BY manteca! MORE THAN 8 DAYS LATER HE RETRACTED HIS BID OSTENSIBLY BECAUSE THE WRONG BID AMOUNT WAS ENTERED (SEE BID HISTORY SECTION OF THIS LISTING AND CLICK ON THE BIDS ICON). HE HAS HAD 32 BID RETRACTIONS IN THE PAST SIX MONTHS THOUGH HE HAS WON ALL THE AUCTIONS HE HAS BID ON IN THE PAST 30 DAYS THAT HE DID NOT RETRACT. SINCE THIS LISTING IS FOR A RARE BUT LIMITED-MARKET RECORD, COULD HIS INITIAL BID HAVE BEEN MADE WITH THE INTENTION OF ADVERTISING HIS 31 PRIOR BID RETRACTIONS IN HOPES OF MY ENDING THE AUCTION EARLY AND FORCING A SALE ON HIM (PRIOR TO THE FINAL 12 HOURS OF A LISTING, A SELLER MAY END AN AUCTION EARLY AND ELECT TO SELL TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER)? EBAY SHOULD NOT PERMIT A BIDDER TO HAVE 32 BID RETRACTIONS IN A SIX-MONTH PERIOD. IT IS UNIMAGINABLE HOW ANYONE COULD RETRACT SO MANY BIDS WITHOUT BEING EITHER MENTALLY INCOMPETENT OR HAVING MALICIOUS OR FRAUDULENT INTENT. EBAY SHOULD NOT PERMIT SUCH PRACTICES, BUT IT DOES AND LIKELY WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO UNLESS REPUTABLE SELLERS SPEAK OUT! SELLERS BEWARE! This information is being provided to remove any potential taint that manteca!'s bid retraction might have caused. Now, please read on about this fantastic record!

If you have a Real Audio player, you can ((hear)) The Point on the AFO label click here to hear the record! Mac Rebennack And The Soul Orchestra, One Naughty Flat b/w The Point, AFO 309. Year of release is 1962. This is a listing for an EXTREMELY rare 45. Although it is listed in Osborne, just try finding a copy! You will not. Even this copy may not even exist. It may be just a figment of your imagination! Aside from being so rare, the record is far ahead of its time. It is a killer Funk piece. Just check out the sound bytes! You will not believe your ears. The record play grades in beautiful near mint condition. It visually grades as near mint minus with a few near microscopic marks. The record is made of vinyl and not styrene. The label as a "pimple" in it (See image below) on The Point side. A tiny amount of debris appears to be contained underneath the label. Although the tiny "bump" can be seen and felt, there has been no alteration to the texture. The label still feels slick. There are also a few minor pimples or bumps in the grooves and a more noticeable undulation. None of the pimples or the undulation are very noticeable or detract from the beauty of the vinyl in any significant way. Likewise, none of these slight defects sound in any way. The record was play graded on an audiophile system employing Basis Ovation, Graham Industries, Transfiguration, Sound Applications, and Jeff Rowland componentry.

Shipping charges reflect the cost of professional packaging materials. Due to increases in fraudulent PayPal transactions and resultant chargebacks, items paid for through PayPal will be shipped to confirmed addresses only. I generally always ship on the date I receive cleared funds or within one day thereafter. Personal checks require a hold of ten business days for clearance.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ FOR BIDDERS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES (PAYPAL OR BIDPAY PAYERS SEE ALSO SECTION BELOW): Uninsured Airmail Letter Post is used for international shipping due to its popularity.

There is also a modest charge (usually between $1 and $2 since costs are estimated and rounded to facilitate remembering) included to cover the additional time and energy required for international transactions, such as correspondence, customs declarations, translations, etc. Spanish, French, Portuguese, and Italian are also spoken in that respective order of proficiency. Due to the high cost of related shipping, satisfaction is guaranteed on a money back basis exclusive of shipping costs.

PLEASE REALIZE THAT UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES I WILL BE ABLE TO PROVE THAT I HAVE MAILED AN ARTICLE TO YOU! Those who are new to eBay (or who haven't used it in a long time) and those with private feedback may not be permitted to use PayPal (BidPay would be acceptable). I do not believe that PayPal (owned by eBay) should promise buyers the "sun and the moon" to try to put real credit card companies out of business! It is sellers who essentially guarantee your items under PayPal's Buyer Protection Program and not PayPal! I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REFUSE ANYONE'S PAYPAL PAYMENT. ALL THE RULES THAT I HAVE FOR PAYPAL ARE SOLELY SO THAT I MAY GET PAID AND STAY PAID BY NOT BEING SUBJECT TO PAYPAL'S CHARGEBACK POLICIES! BIDPAY HAS SIMILAR POLICIES ALTHOUGH NO SO STRINGENT.
