This Auction:

You are bidding on Bustin' Loose Soundtrack - MCA Records #MCA-5141 - Original LP from 1981. Tracks Include:

Side 1 - Lovin' You, Rollin' On, You Stopped Loving Me, Just When I Needed You, and Qual E. Malindrinho.

Side 2 - Love, Childrens Song, Ballad For D., and Hittin' Me Where It Hurts.

This album was indeed SEALED but, as I usually do, I opened it to check for damages or warping. In this case:

The cover is in outstanding condition. There are two small creases on the edges under the cello wrap and a small saw cut on the right bottom side. Rated VG++ (because of the saw cut)

The record was cleaned and plays near perfect. No noise and a slight warp that has no affect on play. Rated NM- (because of the warp)

OUTSTANDING SOUNDTRACK!!!!

Condition:

I use the Goldmine rating guideline as a reference when describing record and cover (jacket) condition. Most records are cleaned on my VPI machine, played on a premium turntable and any imperfections found are duly noted - I am not trying to hide anything. I am open, honest and conservative on my rating and, because of that, will usually understate the condition.

Shipping and Packing:

I usually use Ebays' Shipping Calculator on my listings. I have found that it is easy to use and a fair method for my buyers. The rates are based on weight from past auctions and include the cost of a new box or bubble mailer that I use to ship - all I am trying to do is cover my costs. I use Media Mail in the USA and Airmail Letter Post Internationally. Other methods may be used at a buyers request or because of the lot size and postal limitations. Options, such as insurance, registry, etc. are available upon request.

For my protection, a Certificate of Mailing will be required on all International and some Domestic shipments on lots of $25.00 or more. If used, a charge of $.95 (95 cents) will be added to the invoice for this service.

My records are shipped in a plastic sleeve, enclosed in a packing material of some sort, inserted in a new box or bubble mailer and properly taped. I will use recycled boxes for larger or unique shipments. Lots are usually shipped within 24 hrs. of payment, unless a waiting period is necessary for clearance.

All sales are final, so it is advised to option for insurance, where available, for large or very expensive items; as I cannot be responsible for losses or damages beyond my control.

Combined Auctions:

I am more than willing to combine auctions, so buyers can save on shipping costs. However, it is unfair for a buyer to ask me to hold onto an item for an extensive amount of time; after all I list items almost daily and the process could go one for a long time. With this in mind, I request that combined shipments do not exceed 7 days. After that point an invoice will be generated for all lots purchased since the first one. Also, because I issue an invoice within 24 hrs. of an ended auction, it is critical that a buyer inform me of a wish to combine lots immediately after an auction closes - after all I don't read minds and many of my buyers are only buying one lot. If you follow these guidelines we both will have a satisfying auction experience.

Feedback Policy:

While I believe strongly in feedback and take great pride in my own, some folks have learned to work around this process and take advantage of all the good ebayers out there. Unfortunately, I know this first hand. Because of this, I have had to change how I leave feedback to protect myself. I will leave feedback after a buyer has received the item and is satisfied with the transaction. This may or may not apply to repeat buyers that have earned my trust.  

Thanks and Good Luck!
