Description
Tested LP: The Best Of Edith Piaf - Capitol Records - Originally Released 1962 - This Copy Probably Issued Early 1970s
Comments: Fully play-tested before being offered for sale. The record was very clean when acquired, so I just used a record cleaning brush to remove dust before playing.
Visual Record Condition: The vinyl condition is VG+. The record is highly glossy with a few light surface hairlines. There is a tiny blemish in the vinyl in track 3 of Side 2 that produces a few light ticks. Otherwise, background record surface noise is minimal. The record provides a very enjoyable listen. Faint marks on vinyl may not show up well in the photos.
Record Labels Condition: The labels look great with no wear to speak of. The text is easy to read. There is no writing or stickers on the labels.
Play Test Notes: I played this album from start to finish before offering it for sale. The record sounds wonderful and plays with excellent sound quality. Background record surface noise is minimal. I noticed a few light ticks when the stylus passed over a small vinyl blemish in track 3 of Side 2. There were no skips or sticks, of course.
Jacket Type and Condition: The LP jacket retains the original shrink wrap with price tags from the former Musicland store in Erie, Pennsylvania. I graded the jacket VG+ for a little minor wear. Please see the photos for condition details. The shrink wrap shows a little wear / small tears. There are small corner dents. Edge wear is mild. There are no seam splits. The lettering on the spine looks great. Please examine the photos closely for a fuller understanding of condition. The jacket inside the shrink-wrap is currently housed in a protective clear outer poly sleeve to help prevent wear.
Inner Sleeve Type and Condition: The die-cut paper inner sleeve has some creases and discoloration. There are no seam splits.
Inserts: There are no inserts.
Shipping Notes: I've been selling records by mail since 1992. I know a thing or two about packing records safely for shipping, using appropriate, professional grade packing materials. The shipping charge you are asked to pay covers some of the costs I incur for postage and quality packing materials. This record will be packed well for secure shipping. By default the package will travel by the potentially slower USPS Media Mail rate. For speedier delivery, options to use USPS Ground Advantage or USPS Priority Mail shipping are provided at check-out. I generally pack and ship items sold right away and hand them over to the post office at the earliest opportunity (sometimes same day, sometimes next day). If signature tracking is used for shipping, the mail carrier will be required to hand the package over in person.
Please see the photos to check out the condition for yourself. Zoom right in and have a good look.

For items to be delivered outside of the USA, buyers should be aware that any customs fees / taxes that are required by your government are your responsibility and are not covered by the cost of the item or the shipping charges.

I promise to pack your item securely, no matter what it is. Everything I ship gets packed well, so don't worry about a thing.
If appropriate I will add insurance coverage. Sometimes I will add signature tracking (USA) when your item is shipped. Signature tracking ensures that the postal service doesn't leave your valuable item unattended on your doorstep out in the sun or rain - it has to be handed over face to face. If you order something rare and/or worth a bit, be prepared to have to accept delivery in person.

When multiple items are shipped together, I can almost always give you a better deal on the shipping cost compared to the individual shipping costs. I promise to give you the best rate possible based on the items purchased and the shipping method required.
For "Buy It Now" items (most of what I offer), simply add each item that you want to your shopping cart. When ready to commit to buying, request a total from me from your cart and I'll send an invoice as soon as I can. Since I'm not a computer and I do other things like sleep and take the dogs for walks, you might not receive an immediate response, but I will get back to you as soon as possible. If you decide to pay for items you want individually instead of requesting a total from the shopping cart, I will promptly send back whatever money I can for a shipping discount.
- Some items are not compatible for combined shipping.
- Combining shipping might require changing the shipping method or increase packaging materials expense.
- A few items that I offer are not eligible for combined shipping.
- Of course it is ok to ask about combined shipping costs up front. You have to tell me exactly what you intend to buy and where it will be shipped. I can't always give an exact cost, but I can at least give you an estimate.
- I reserve the right to limit the number or total value of items that I'm willing to send in a single package.
- For international sales I use ebay's international shipping program. Combined shipping depends on the ebay shipping program rules in place at the time of shipment. It is possible that no combined shipping discount is available for international orders.
