Condition of Record: NM. Has been played and has a little dust but is very clean. No blemishes or marks. Very little spindle wear on either side.
LP cover very good. Slight ringwear at top and bottom; a little wave in cardboard at upper left and a bump at lower left (that corner of spine has a little chip; top corner of spine a smaller one).
Back cover photo, track list, liner note, and photos of other Simone albums all fine. Two small dirt smudges near top; very small bit of paper backing folded in lower right half; numbers faintly handwritten (small) at bottom right. Open ends of cover both slightly bumped. No splits on either top or bottom lengthwise edge; bottom has some shelfwear.
I'm an independent seller divesting his own record collection. I'm not selling from a store or warehouse, with multiple copies of titles, or on behalf of a professional collector.
Shipping: Ebay requires seller to indicate shipping methods and other particulars, then automatically inserts the cost at the top of the listing. Buyer will pay amount as determined by destination, by shipping method he chooses, and by insurance required (see: below); I don't gouge the price to make more profit. (USPS Media Mail is cheapest; I will provide prices for US Priority, or for FedEx or UPS ground, if requested.)
Insurance is mandatory on shipments to US addresses: The final price of the item determines the amount of insurance required. Please wait till I inform you of your total cost prior to submitting payment. It and not Ebay's stated cost is the amount to be paid.
**For winners outside US**: USPS shipping options are International Priority and International Express. Both methods include insurance but only Express has tracking. (Check USPS's website for shipping prices.) If you want a private-company shipper, I will quote you the cost at end of auction. First-Class-Package service, which doesn't include insurance, is an option; the shipping cost will be lower, but if your item doesn't arrive you have no recourse. The risk is yours.
Packing: The LP will be carefully wrapped, then placed in a standard, cardboard LP box. Please indicate any special instructions.
Payment: I accept Paypal. I also accept cash in cases of in-person deliveries.
Returns: Returns will be accepted in cases of error in description.
