Description
Artist: Martha and the Vandellas Title: Come and Get These Memories Label/Number: Gordy 902 (M) Jacket condition: G Record condition: VG Notes: The cover is well worn with some ring wear, seam and corner wear, and some writing on both sides. The seams and the spine are all split and taped for their full lengths. There is also an interesting combination of elements between the cover and the record. The cover is a Canadian issued version "Manufactured and Distributed in Canada by Phonodisc Limited" as noted on the back cover. The labels are original U.S. Gordy versions and are in nice condition with a couple of light scratches on both sides. The vinyl is bright and glossy with enough light surface scratches to warrant grading it down some to VG. It plays very well with a few light ticks and some very minor surface noise. Grading: Grading is usually only visual for VG+ or better items, although if time allows I may play to verify the quality of a pressing or just to hear the music. VG items are usually only listed if they are fairly hard-to-find items and are always play graded. Regardless of the grade, if I do play the LP, I note the results in the item description. I use Goldmine standards with Ebay's EX grade added for items NOT QUITE up to NM. Please read the notes above as I try to note anything that might influence the grading one way or another. I try to be conservative and grade as though I were buying the record and hope my feedback speaks well for my grading. Mono (M) or Stereo (S) is noted after catalog number. Don't hesitate to e-mail questions. Mailing and costs: Domestic shipping is via USPS, media mail with delivery confirmation. I ship in cardboard mailers made specifically for records with additional cardboard pads for added protection. Shipping and handling charges are a flat $5.00 for the first LP and $.50 per additional LP. Overseas shipping is via USPS First Class Mail International. Cost will be as calculated based upon destination. I always mail in a poly sleeve with the record outside the jacket. If there's an original inner sleeve I also remove the record from that and put it in a plain sleeve for mailing. That way, there are no seam splits on either the jacket or the sleeve due to any handling in the mail. I'm always happy to combine shipping costs for multiple purchases.
