LESTER STERLING / S. Cole + KEN PARKER Bangarang RANDY'S Skin + Boss Reggae 7"

$

20

In my continuing quest to bring you fine vinyl, I'm happy to offer the record(s) listed above.  (and of course, as usual, please check out my other listings to find things that you may need).
Side A: Sterling & Cole - Bangarang. Easy VG+; actually almost VG++. No gouges, very few storage scratches. Groovewear is tight and compact. Light haze (fog juice?) on disc; should  be carefully cleaned, if you wish. wol. Tiny paint chip on label @ 3:00. 
Side B: Ken Parker - Someone to Love. Actually, even better than Side A. Fingerprints and fog juice residue should be carefully cleaned. Groovewear is lovely on this; might even venture that this disc or this side was rarely played, if ever. wol. 
Ephemera/various: BEAUTIFUL 52 year old disc. Glossy, shiny, labels are well struck. No peeling. 
As with all records, a careful dusting/cleaning may be required for optimum playback. 
FIVE DAY ONLY SALE. 
Please see and examine pictures, as they are part of the listing. If you would like additional pics, just let me know!
NOTE: Due to the pandemic, there are mail delays all over the world. Please allow for some  extra time for shipments to arrive. Additionally, due to cost and availability issues, I can only ship records in boxes to international destinations. US buyers will still receive deliveries, of course, however, these record(s) will be sandwiched in between stiff cardboard squares, wrapped in  bubble wrap and placed within a suitable container. 
It is preferable that payment be made ASAP, however, due to various circumstances,  I'm allowing up to three days for payment to be made. Anything after that, and an unpaid item case automatically opens. If you don't plan on paying, then don't bid.
Shipping: 
I'm happy to combine shipping for orders! 
No matter how many 45's you purchase (in the lower 48 of the US), the shipping cost will never go over the current Media Mail rate (currently $3.11). 
NOTE: USPS has raised its rates again; currently reflected here. This is a huge jump over  what the costs used to be. I make zero profit on shipping, the way it should be.  Fair warning...these rates are exorbitant. 
Feel free to check the USPS website for rate confirmation. Criteria that I use is this: never mail on the weekend, always mail in the morning, and plan a few days in advance to determine quote. 
Germany, France and Japan rates will stay the same as before.
Here's a rough breakdown, of which I'll adhere to:
Canada - $14.25 (14% increase) for 8oz and under; $21.25 (2.3% increase) for any weight over 8oz.
France, Germany - $14.50 for 8oz and under; $24.50 for any weight over 8oz.  - no change.
Italy- $16.25 (11% increase) for 8oz and under; $28.25 (13.27% increase) for any weight over 8oz.
Spain- $15.50 (11% increase) for 8oz and under; $25.50 (3.92% increase) for any weight over 8oz.
Aussie - $18.25 (5.5% increase) for 8oz and under; $29.75 (6.75% increase) for any weight over 8oz.
1-2 45 rpm singles weighs under 8oz. 3 or more is over. Usually.
1 LP record is already over 8oz (it's actually closer to 14oz). The price break for multiple LP's is at 32oz, i.e., 2LP's.
I am willing to work with any of my overseas customers on this. Most of this would be  depending upon circumstance, order status, availability and most importantly, weight.
I refuse to lose a sale over an amount as small as ~$5 or thereabouts merely due to shipping costs. We'll talk it through and hash it out. 


I ship all of my (soon to be your) items as such:
1. Paper sleeve (will match company of the record if available), poly outer sleeve.  2. Cardboard stiffeners for added package strength (in case of shipping delays for supplies, I will use 2 records for intra-US shipments).  3. A stiffener is placed under the record, then the next one is turned at 90° with the record in between. 4. Specialized mailing boxes are exclusively used for mailing 45rpm records (or LP's).
NOTE: Despite what eBay puts in my shipping profile, I'm happy to ship anywhere in the world,  with no exclusions whatsoever. 
If you are getting more than one record from me, please wait until I send you an invoice. 
VAT/GST/customs charges are the responsibility of the buyer and are not included in the cost of this item.
