SAY IT'S TRUE, IT'S TRUE: I'M SELLING MY U2

Please check my other listings for more U2 items.  I have a ton of records, cd's, and posters to sell.  Most auctions will start at 99 cents with no reserve.

On to the item specifics:  this auction is for one (1) U2 Last Night on Earth 12" vinyl promo single.  12IS 664 DJ, the only 12" vinyl release of Last Night on Earth.
Label: Island Records
Catalog number: 12IS 664 DJ

Cover condition:  Very Good. Jacket is Very Good, has wear along the edges and at the corners.

Record(s) condition:  Very Good. Record is also Very Good, has noticeable scratches and smudges on the playing surface. The scratches aren't huge and I wouldn't expect them to impact play quality, but I can't play test the vinyl so Very Good seems like a safe grade to me.

About how I grade records: Every item will be described in detail, using the grading system posted online by the Record Collectors Guild, so that you know exactly what you are bidding on. I will never grade a record as Mint, not even sealed records; Near Mint is as high as I will go. Also, eBay has a grade called "Excellent" which I am unfamiliar with and will also never use. The next grade down from Near Mint is Very Good Plus. Finally, I will never sell a record that I consider to be in Poor condition; the lowest possible grade for a record at auction is Good. All told the possible grades are, in order from lowest to highest, Good - Good Plus - Very Good - Very Good Plus - Near Mint.  Play testing of the vinyl is, however, impossible as I do not own a turntable.

Shipping options:
Domestic:

• Media Mail: USPS Media Mail is cheap and notoriously unreliable as far as how long it can take for an item to be delivered.  Sometimes it will be as fast as Priority Mail, other times parcels will languish in one place for several days.
  
• Priority Mail: USPS Priority Mail is fast, reliable, and often far more expensive than Media Mail. Most Priority Mail packages are delivered within one to three days anywhere in the US.
  
• UPS Ground: The Gold Standard of Standard Shipping, UPS Ground is reliable, offers day specific guaranteed delivery Monday through Friday. UPS Ground takes anywhere from one to seven days to deliver depending on the destination zip code. For most small packages Priority Mail is a better option.
  

International:

• First Class Mail International: USPS charges A LOT for shipping outside the United States. I wish I could ask less for shipping, but I have to pay for the postage and it isn't cheap. Usually has no tracking, but it's the most cost effective option I know of. Four pounds maximum weight.
  
• Registered Mail: Registered Mail isn't listed as an option in eBay's shipping calculator, but you're more than welcome to it.  Just add $15.00 to the cost of First Class Mail International.
  
• Priority Mail International: Pricey, but tends to be faster and more reliable than First Class.  Includes tracking to "major destinations", whatever that means (USPS doesn't specify). In my experience you're better off with Registered First Class Mail, but that's just my opinion.  For large/heavy packages First Class isn't an option.
