**********NO INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING; TOO MANY 'LOST' OR 'MISSING' PACKAGES WITH ZERO RECOURSE!**********
In my continuing quest to bring you fine vinyl, I'm happy to offer the record(s) listed above. (and of course, as usual, please check out my other listings to find things that you may need).
OMGOLLY! I knew this was something when I picked it up, however, I had only checked the A-side (an anti-Beatle novelty track), which is pretty rare. The B-side is a mod-ish R&B dance stormer, and this is extremely hard to find.
There have only been 4 copies up for sale since 2003! And, just to sweeten the deal, this is in superb condition.
Side A: Mr. X and The Exterminators: VG++. I do try to grade conservatively so that there are no nasty surprises for either of us. wol. Light scratching in various and sundry parts of the playing surface. A little bit heavier (but these can still not be felt) in a smaller area at approx the 3:00 position. Groovewear is tight and compact. Disc should probably be carefully cleaned to remove a light amount of dust and fingerprints. Congruent arc-scratch for approx 5" or so. Extremely thin and DNAP. Hairlines present on intro and outro wax footprints. STILL, tons of shine and gloss!
Side B: Victor Lane. The MUCH more scarce track is in even better condition! EX- for this side. Many finger- prints necessitate a thorough and careful cleaning. Much less instances of hairlines. Any ultra-light scratching /skidding is storage-based, NOT playback. This side actually looks unplayed.
Ephemera/various: Tiny amount of dish warp (<1/64"). Playback files for these songs are on a well-known site that provides audio files for hearing music. Those files are not from this copy, but if you want to hear the tracks, knock yerself out!
The last copy of this 45 in VG+ back in '19 went for $375, fyi.
As with all records, a careful dusting/cleaning may be required for optimum playback.
FIVE DAY ONLY SALE.
Please see and examine pictures, as they are part of the listing. If you would like additional pics, just let me know!
NOTE: Due to the pandemic, there are mail delays all over the US. Please allow for some extra time for shipments to arrive.
It is preferable that payment be made ASAP, however, due to various circumstances, I'm allowing up to three days for payment to be made. Anything after that, and an unpaid item case automatically opens. If you don't plan on paying, then don't bid.
Shipping:
I'm happy to combine shipping for orders!
No matter how many 45's you purchase (in the lower 48 of the US), the shipping cost will never go over the current Media Mail rate (currently $3.11).
I ship all of my (soon to be your) items as such:
1. Paper sleeve (will match company of the record if available), poly outer sleeve. 2. Cardboard stiffeners for added package strength (in case of shipping delays for supplies, I will use 2 records for intra-US shipments). 3. A stiffener is placed under the record, then the next one is turned at 90° with the record in between. 4. Specialized mailing boxes are exclusively used for mailing 45rpm records (or LP's).
If you are getting more than one record from me, please wait until I send you an invoice.
Any questions? Please feel free to contact me. I've an open-door policy! :) I WILL happily process returns if the item arrives damaged, or is significantly different than advertised. I will NOT process refunds due to buyer's remorse, I'm sorry to say.
PayPal ONLY. See my feedback and bid with confidence!
