CRAIG CHASE VINYL

Don (ccvinylman) Larter, Owner

For Sale

Perhaps you have heard of one of Charles Aznavour's biggest hits--at least in America. It's called "Yesterday, When I Was Young," a song about an older gentleman who rues his foolish past, especially his love life. Great tune. Great lyrics. 

Visual Grade: NM-/NM. Has been played before, but carefully. 

Play Grade: NM/NM. Very quiet pressing. 

Jacket/Sleeve Grade:

Shipping: By USPS Media Mail, or eBay International Shipping for overseas and Canada.

A note on how CCVINYLMAN sells vinyl:

• I clean every record I sell. I use proprietary methods which are safe and effective and leave your records as clean as possible. I even clean and repair outer sleeves (and sometimes inner sleeves as well!) should they have some reparable damage (e.g., an open seam, surface grime, and the like). I also inspect and play-grade every record I sell, except for still-sealed records. (See my grading scale, below).I craft my own heavy-duty mailers, not only to save you money, but to protect your investment as it wings its way to you. Please note: I do NOT ever charge a customer a "handling fee". 

• I ship your purchases usually within 24 hours of receiving your payment.

• I offer a no-quibble money-back guarantee should you feel I have exaggerated your record’s condition. Just send it back to me in the shape in which you found it, and I’ll refund your purchase price, including your initial shipping cost. If you prefer to keep the record, I will issue you a partial refund (or credit for a future purchase).

A Note on Shipping:

• Shipping cost is based on your package's weight. The first single record (plus container) weighs 1 pound, 4 ounces. Each additional record weighs 10 ounces. Obviously, box-sets weigh more.

• Normal domestic shipping is by Media Mail.

• Normal International shipping is by First-Class Mail International.

Record Play-Grades

SS = Still sealed; unopened and un-played; condition unknown.

NM+ = Near Mint Plus. Extraordinarily clean, quiet, and virtually unmarked, except perhaps for a very light spindle track on the label; may not have been played.

NM = Near Mint. Clean and quiet, regardless of scuffs, hairline scratches or apparent defects.

NM- = Near Mint Minus. Less quiet than NM, with a bit more background noise , regardless of its source.

VG++ = Very good plus plus. Noisier than NM-; may say why.

VG+ = Very good plus. Noisier than VG++; will say why.

Sleeve Grades

Exc = Excellent. Virtually perfect; may be shrink-wrapped or not; looks almost new.

Exc- = Excellent minus. No major defects; clean, sound, and mark-free; perhaps a slightly bent corner or two.

VG+ = Very Good Plus. May have a couple small defects, such as a little writing or a little staining or yellowing, but it's quite presentable.

VG = Very Good. Defects are more noticeable; may have needed seam repair with paper reinforcement that is glued in place. 

G = Good. Sleeve has some obvious challenges but is still somewhat presentable. It may some staining and be taped and have other signs of repair, but it still functions well to protect the record inside. 

F = Fair. Need I say more?
