##WE DO NOT GRADE THE SLEEVES OF NEW VINYL##
SLEEVES ARE INCLUDED UNLESS NOTED OTHERWISE
(12" singles without sleeves withstanding)
Q: Why don't you grade the sleeves on new vinyl?
A: We have a rotating stock, and we travel. Sometimes there is a bend or ding in transit from the distributor. Sometimes sleeves get shelf wear. Generally if the sleeve is damaged on something you've placed an order for and we notice it we'll send a note along with the shipping total. However, if it is a concern for you particularly please send note along with your order for us to check the sleeve condition.
¡Only media that is still SEALED in a factory plastic will be listed as Mint (M) all other unplayed media will generally be listed as Near Mint (NM)!
#Regarding SEALED Records and Color Variations#
When items are listed as "sealed..." within our notes it generally means that we cannot verify the color of the record. If color is of importance to you please inquire with us before purchase and we may be able to provide more information. We do our best to know in advance but sometimes we don't and can't tell without opening the record (which we won't do - please don't ask us to open a sealed record; again, we will not). If you put an order in for a sealed record we will most likely reassert the fact that we don't know what color it may be. Sometimes color is listed and sometimes there are different catalog numbers or bar codes, but often times there are not and we cannot tell. We can only promise to be completely honest about it.
¡SHIPPING!
SHIPPING DEFAULTS TO YOUR PAYPAL SHIPPING ADDRESS FOR SELLER PROTECTION.
SHIPPING EXTRAS: Please note that when we send an invoice we are sending along the bare bones cheapest shipping price. Insurance is not included and if you are international and worried about damaged records it is especially encouraged to heavily consider adding insurance to your package. If damage occurs to your package without insurance I'm afraid there is no course of action of getting that record/the money for it back. Other extras such as tracking or shipping confirmation are also on the buyer. Please contact us inquiring about any of this before paying for the record(s) and ideally in the notes with your order.
We ship using fair practices. Whether you are in the U.S. or International we will weigh the records and charge you appropriately. We will use USPS Media Mail as a default for deliveries in the United States. We send using USPS First Class International to everywhere else. Modest extras towards shipping materials and associated costs are included in invoice shipping charges. (For small packages it's generally $1). We ship all orders in corrugated cardboard mailers (not the flimsy envelope mailers) and use 4mil polybags.
Once payment has been received and your order has been physically scanned by USPS, we will notify you that your order has been shipped via Discogs.

**WE WILL NOT SHIP CDs WITHOUT THEIR CASES - Because of how we have our shipping set up this is not an option. Please understand this and take it into consideration before placing an order. If you'd like tno have your CDs shipped without cases please order from another dealer who can accommodate that.**
US SHIPPING (Including Territories)
IF YOU WOULD LIKE YOUR RECORDS SHIPPED OUTSIDE OF THEIR SLEEVES PLEASE NOTE IT IN YOUR ORDER - ESPECIALLY IF THE RECORD YOU ARE ORDERING IS A SEALED ITEM. It is not our normal practice to open sealed records.
RETURNS: We accept returns only for defects or extensive damage (adding insurance is recommended for those who are looking to keep their records only in the most mint of condition). Returns must be communicated and done in an expedient manner (30 days is the bar, please do not contact us about a return 6 months after purchase, for instance).
Bad pressings or less than ideal record pressings are not considered damaged or defective unless the label has acknowledged and made a decision to recall or replace said pressings.
Regarding sealed records received with defects: If you have received a record with a factory defect your best course of action is to contact the appropriate publisher of the record. Once the seal is broken we have no recourse as a shop. If that does not work please do not hesitate to contact us to alleviate the situation in whatever manner we can work out.
