Robbie Basho Venus in Cancer Blue Thumb gatefold LP EX

Note about this week's auctions:
we recently purchased an incredible collection of hard to find rock, psych, avante garde, and other interesting LPs. this collection was kept in immaculate condition, possibly the best collection (condition wise) I have ever seen. every record from this collection appears unplayed, or possibly played once. I would guess the owner made reel to reel dubs of his LPs and never subsequently handled or played them.  Thanks for looking, and remember we combine shipping to save you money.

OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

UK BIDDERS: our postage system DOES NOT allow the use of "UNITED KINGDOM" as the country in your address! to avoid delays please specify your country, e.g. "GREAT BRITAIN", "SCOTLAND", etc. Thanks!

BRAZIL BIDDERS: our normal insurance company DOES NOT ALLOW US TO INSURE SHIPMENTS TO BRAZIL!! Therefore we must use USPS PRIORITY MAIL with INSURANCE for higher dollar items, generally $32USD total cost. WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO MANDATE THIS SHIPPING METHOD ON ITEMS OVER $50USD.  WE CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY UNINSURED ITEMS UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

GRADING:
M  a factory sealed record, or in rare cases an LP which was sealed and opened by our staff to check for any problems but is still unplayed and as perfect as LPs get.

NM close to mint possibly small cosmetic issue such as inaudible surface paper scuff from sleeve. will play flawlessly. usually unplayed or played a few careful times by a single careful owner.
 
EX very clean record that has been well taken care of but shows signs of careful use. minor flaw preventing NM grade. will still look near new with factory sheen. 

VG+ still an enjoyable sounding record but will have minor wear and possibly some lightly audible surface noise. well cared for and no skips, loud pops, or noise that overtakes the music.  Most collectors, especially those who want to play their records, will be happy with a VG+ record.

VG a filler copy, still plays through decently but possibly a loud pop or two and definitely with some surface noise. this grade and lower are rarely used. we will only list items this grade if it is rare or in some cases if it is a rare picture sleeve and the record is of secondary importance. 

G will play through but it won't be pretty.

P hey, at least you have an original copy! don't drop the needle on it though.

INSURANCE:
higher dollar items (generally anything over $50) will be insured by us, paid for by us (excluding Brazil). if you specifically want something insured just ask. unless we state otherwise in the listing, insurance is always provided at NO ADDITIONAL COST to the buyer (except Brazil).
