$

66

Argo  ZFB-3, "Sue Cow" with Tom Paley, guitar and vocals; Joe Locker (banjo); Janet Kerr (fiddle); from 1969.  Vinyl plays at NM with virtually no background noise.  UK-style jacket is in excellent shape with strong seams and no bending or corner wear; jacket back is very clean with no writing or stamps - just a bit of the expected record outline, not really ringwear.  Songs include "Johnny Booker", "Sugar Hill", "Bad Lee Brown", "Gypsy's Warning", "Richmond Cotillion", "McAfee's Confession", "Take 'Em for a Ride", "Old Shoes and Leggings", "Sue Cow", "Frankie and Johnny", "Charles Guiteau", "Going Down Town", "Young Johnny", "Everyday Girl", "I Wish I Had Stayed in the Wagon Yard", "Five Nights Drunk", "Wagon Mill Girl", and "Moving Day".  Shipping is $4.00 media mail, $7.00 priority mail in the continental U.S.; $15.00 airmail for Europe, Australia, Japan, and Korea; elsewhere inquire.  Insured priority shipping required for Italy and Brazil.  Additional LPs in one package are $1.00 per extra LP in U.S. and Canada, $2.00 per extra LP overseas.  All LPs are play-graded unless sealed.  I dislike low-quality packaging as much as any other eBayer.  Individual records will be shipped in special, handcrafted mailers unlike the usual type in three ways: (1) They are significantly larger all around and padded around the edges to prevent corner bumps to the jacket; (2) they are padded on both sides of the record with styro sheets or thick cardboard sheets to prevent damage to the record surface; (3)  they are constructed of heavier-duty cardboard than normal mailers to provide further protection.  All used LPs are shipped with record securely inside an inner sleeve but outside the jacket to prevent seam splitting in transit; our innovative padded packaging will prevent seam splitting for new, sealed LPs.  The end product is designed to withstand a drop from a second-story window with no damage (though I will not test it with your package).  No record should arrive in a condition worse than described!  Multiple LPs are shipped in BagsUnlimited pizza-style boxes that are larger around than LPs and will also be well padded.  All used LPs are play-graded on a VPI turntable with Audioquest tonearm.
