*************************RANDOM NOTES**************************

Your item will be packaged with tender loving care. Records are securely placed in nice new inner sleeves & new poly sleeves & then carefully packed inside thick cardboard mailers along with stiff cardboard inserts & sheets of bubble wrap to help provide a safe delivery.


All records are professionally sight-graded. Play-grading upon request. Please keep in mind that used records from the '50s & '60s are rarely found in actual Mint condition & very seldom in actual Near Mint. Proper record grading involves skill, knowledge & honesty.

Pictures shown in a bearswaxrecords listing are always of the actual items up for bid.  International bidders are always welcome.  A special note to my overseas buyers: Please do not ask us to falsify your customs forms. This is a service we cannot provide. Thank you.

Please bid with confidence. Check out our hard-earned feedbacks. Buyers always appreciate our careful packaging methods. Sincere thanks for looking & best of luck on all future eBay adventures. Satisfaction is guaranteed. Please feel free to e-mail The Bear with any questions concerning any listed item or about Music in general. Positive feedback will be left promptly for deserving eBayers. This item is probably taken from the still-sprawling collection of a well-respected (former) used record store owner now semi-retired but even more inspired & certainly much blessed. Heartfelt thanks to past buyers from every State & countries all over the World. Please stay tuned to the listings of Bears Wax Records.
