This is a great LP Elektra Records.  It is a sampling of some rare psychedelic music from the early 1970s.  I have had this record for decades and it has been well cared for and played lightly.  This is a scarce vinyl recording.  Don't pass on it.  Questions?  Drop me a line. 

CONDITION:  The records/vinyl are in near mint condition.  The cover is in excellent condition with no writing or cutout marks.  There is a repaired seam split along the top but it is a very neat job that does very little to detract from the beauty of the cover.  The labels are in excellent+ condition.  The spindle holes are strong/tight and clean.  OUTSTANDING AND VERY COLLECTION WORTHY. 

Please take a look at the photo and remember that there is NO RESERVE!!

The cost to ship to you is the cost of the postage or freight, the box/container (usually from Bags Unlimited), materials, and optional - but recommended - insurance. 

U.S.P.S. Media Mail rates (U.S.A. only) are available and run significantly less than Priority Mail (which is available also). 

There is no reserve on this great recording!

Yes, I do combine on shipping for the winners of multiple auctions. 

BEFORE YOU BID READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING, THANK YOU!

PAYMENT:  Yes, I do accept PayPal.  For other acceptable alternatives please contact me through the "ask a question" feature on the auction listing. 

SHIPPING:  I try to ship three (3) times a week; Monday, Wednesday and Friday.  When necessity dictates I will ship on Saturday.  When the weather does not cooperate - like during January and February of 2010 when we got record amounts of snow - it may not be possible to keep that schedule.  I will get to the Post Office as soon as the roads are cleared and it is safe to drive into town.  

I like to use Media Rate for shipping records, CDs, tapes and similar items that meet USPS Media Mail requirements.  Media Mail rates actually seem reasonable.  HOWEVER, Media Mail does not provide tracking.  If you want, or expect, tracking for your purchase you will have to upgrade to Pirority Mail. 

PRIORITY INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: We cannot guarantee "First-Class international" overseas deliveries as  this class of mailing does not offer tracking service. For International tracking please choose "PRIORITY INTERNATIONAL" shipping (see rates beow).

NOTICE TO ALL INTERNATIONAL BUYERS PLEASE READ IMPORTANT!: ALL items which exceed $75.00 "actual value" or 4 lbs. in shipping weight (because of U.S. weight restrictions on International 1st Class Mail) MUST ship "PRIORITY INTERNATIONAL" Airmail, which provides the security of TRACKING ability that "First-Class International" does not. 

I employ the following grading standards.  All of the items are guaranteed unless noted (please keep in mind Good and Poor ratings when biding).

Sealed = Still Sealed: In factory sealed condition (NO, I do not reseal records.) 

M = Mint: Perfect, factory-fresh but opened (I usually DO NOT use this grade / classification as true "mint" records are somewhat scarce)

M- = Mint Minus or NM = Near Mint:  Near perfect but played record

EXC+ or EX+ =  Excellent+:   Close to like new with only superficial signs of use that dont affect play.  (Just a step down from M- or NM.)

EXC or EX =  Excellent:   A superior copy with light signs of use or slight wear that dont affect play.

VG+ = Very Good+:  a used, reasonable copy. There will be obvious signs of wear and the possibility of light surface noise between tracks or during quiet passages, but still quite nice.

VG = Very Good:  Significant wear and marks and usually quite noticeable surface noise.  VG items are great to add to the collection until a superior one becomes available. 

G = Good:  In the record world, 'Good' is not good! From here on down (Fair, Poor), we're talking about beat-up records.  (You purchase knowing that the item has probably not received adequate care or treatment.) 

COVER GRADING: 
EX+:  NO OBVIOUS WEAR .. .HANDLED WITH CARE 

EX:  SOME MINOR SIGNS OF WEAR / RING RUB / SURFACE SCUFFS .. NO BENDS, TEARS OR WRITING

VG+:  MAY SHOW SIGNS OF LIGHT WEAR / RING RUB / SURFACE SCUFFS / SLIGHT CORNER BUMPING  (THIS IS STILL A COVER THAT THE VAST MAJORITY OF COLLECTORS WHO I HAVE ENCOUNTERED FIND BETTER THAN "ACCEPTABLE.") 

VG:  COVER SHOWS SOME WEAR / MAY HAVE WRITING / RING RUB AND SCUFFS OBVIOUS .. MINOR TEARS

G = Good:  (I Repeat) In the record world, 'Good' is not good! From here on down (Fair, Poor), we're talking about beat-up covers.  (You purchase knowing that the item has probably not received adequate care or treatment - - i.e., "is sorta dogged.") 

NOTE:  A cover with a cutout mark (e.g., drill hole, punch hole, cut corner, sawmark, back-cover stamp, etc.)  can be assigned to any condition grade.  I do note / clearly state the presence of cutout marks in the item listing.  I do evaluate their overall impact on the cover and grade accordingly. 

Thanks for your interest and time and
GOOD LUCK in your bidding. 

THIS IS THE BOMB, MAN THE BOMB!
