MYSTIC TIDE – LP Strong VG+, Distortions, RARE psychedelic garage punk psych

$

48

Strong VG+  In great shape with only light hints of age/wear.  Played a few times but carefully handled (I'm the only owner). 
Collection of 1965-67 material on Distortions Records, 1991 (not the best quality label but a killer release).  


Thanks for looking!



                     CONDITION/GRADING
Unless otherwise noted, almost all vinyl is in excellent (Strong VG+, VG++, NM) shape and from my private collection.  All records are handled with the utmost care, and the only ones that are not close to perfect are ones that I acquired used along the way.  

Of course some records may have minuscule manufacturing hairlines or "cloudy" spots that are noticeable only when held up to bright sunlight  (common in many Euro, Jamaican & indie pressings).  I mention this because I usually view records in a ray of sunlight when visually inspecting them (and I also play them) before listing.  A lot of new records look like this, especially some labels from Italy and Jamaica. 
Regardless, I will make a note of any blemish I notice.
I try to grade all records as honestly possible and usually on the lower side of what I see some others do for similar conditions.  Hopefully this is reflected in my ratings.  Please contact me if you have any questions.

• NM (I generally don't mark NM unless recently opened and almost new; something purchased recently and only played 2 or 3 times)
• VG++ (in very excellent, often what many others would mark as NM condition) 
• VG+ (in excellent condition with possible light signs of wear or a few hairline or very slight and inaudible surface marks)
• VG (plays and looks great, but may have a couple of light surface marks and perhaps some light static here and there; covers may have light ring or shelf wear, and some discoloration (thought generally in pretty solid shape). Often what some sellers list as VG+
• Will not bother with anything less than VG (and rarely that)

                        SHIPPING
Records sent Media Mail in USA.
*Vinyl is removed from cover for shipping and sent in sturdy record mailers.
*Records sent within 2-3 business days upon receiving payment.  
I will post a tracking confirmation number after I send the records out.
Please note that Media Mail can take up to 2 WEEKS!

• $4.00 US LPs (includes Delivery Confirmation) (US ONLY)

                             COMBINED SHIPPING: 
I will do combined shipping, but only up to 3 (maybe 4) LPs (depending on thickness/weight of records) because my LP mailers can only safely hold that amount).  
More than 4 albums equal a new box and a new postage fee of $4. (I can get a few EPs in with LPs of course.)
Add records to cart and  then click "request total from seller" (I'll send a combined shipping invoice.)

**Sometimes the eBay system doesn't figure postage correctly (or at all) when I do combined shipping, so be sure to wait for the invoice from me.  I may have to mark it in "additional fees" (but I put zero for the postage box if so).

• COMBINED SHIPPING PRICES: 
• Up to 3 45's/singles or 2 LP/12" albums $4.00 (I lowered the price since tracking numbers are now free at the USPS).
• 3-4 albums (or heavy double LPs) (or 4-5 EPs): $5.00
• (includes Delivery Confirmation)

***Wait for an invoice to be sent to you before paying (for combined orders). Click on "Request Total from Seller" in the shopping cart

                         INTERNATIONAL
International shipping has become ridiculously expensive; worse, I've dealt with some shady people or with terrible postal services in certain countries.  Because of this, I will only sell internationally upon request and with the understanding that I am not responsible for any item once I send it out.   There are certain countries that have notorious reputations for substandard postal service.  It's a risk for some places, and the risk is yours. 
$13 Canada ($8 EPs)
$20 World ($12-$14 EPs)
2-3 LPs to Europe averages $26.  It's insane.  It's barely worth ordering international unless you desperately want an item.  
Order internationally at your own risk!  (I will be 100% honest and pack safely on my end.)



__________________________________________________________________________________________


I sell albums from my collection at reasonable starting bids (for what they are realistically worth) assuming you have a good chance at being the only bidder, often making it the selling price (and I don't have to worry about "buy it now" fees).  Money from selling these records goes towards buying new records!

Thanks again!
