REFER TO CONDITION RATINGS FOR THE BEST IDEA OF SLEEVE AND VINYL CONDITIONS AND/OR COMMENTS SPECIFIC TO THIS COPY. 'NEW' RECORDS ARE UNPLAYED AND SENT AS THEY WERE RELEASED - MOST OFTEN SEALED, BUT SOME RELEASES COME UNSEALED AS NEW (WE USUALLY NOTATE 'NEVER WAS SEALED' IN THE DESCRIPTION IF A RECORD COMES THIS WAY 'NEW').

PLEASE READ IF YOU'RE PURCHASING A PRE-ORDER

Shipping labels will be printed within one day of your order being placed, making it appear as if the item is shipping immediately. However, it will not actually ship until the RELEASE DATE specified in the listing description. Please reference this for shipping date information.

If any issues arise and we are unable to fulfill your order, we will refund you in full—this is rarely a problem. There is always a chance of a release date being delayed, and we are not always notified by our distributors when this happens. If the release date has passed and your tracking number shows no movement, please send us a message to inquire about the shipping status.

IF YOU PRE-ORDER ITEMS ALONG WITH IN-STOCK ITEMS, PLEASE NOTE THAT YOUR ENTIRE ORDER WILL SHIP TOGETHER WHEN ALL ITEMS ARE AVAILABLE. TO RECEIVE YOUR IN-STOCK ITEMS SOONER, WE RECOMMEND PLACING SEPARATE ORDERS.

Condition Ratings

MINT (M): Perfect, brand new, unplayed.

Near Mint (NM): Like new, barely played, will play perfectly.

Excellent (EX): Very close to near mint, with minor cosmetic wear. Will play perfectly.

Very Good Plus (VG+): Light cosmetic blemishes that do not affect play. Close to perfect playback.

Very Good (VG): Some light marks that may cause minor noise during playback. Still enjoyable and plays well.

Good Plus (G+): Noticeable noise during playback. Only listed if of collector value. Not ideal for listening.

You may request the results of a play test. Shipping can be combined on multiple items!

New records can be nicely taken out of their sealed sleeves and shipped this way to protect from seam splits during transit. If you’d like this done, please let us know or leave a note when you place your order.
