Description STOP! Please, this will help YOU... yes YOU! Read this, then proceed: I would like to clear-up if a 'Picture Sleeve' is real or not ... since there's been so many buyers recently asking the question ... "Is the Picture Sleeve real or not" ... if you see (Copy) anywhere in the Title or listing, it's a Picture of the front of a Picture Sleeve, a album cover or a CD cover ... it's a copy ... [a reproduction; not an original]. Look on the bright side it got your attention ... which is exactly what I wanted to do, it didn't cost you a dime(it's my paper, ink & time) and it really looks as nice as the original ... but it's just a PICTURE of the "FRONT" of the original PICTURE SLEEVE, a ALBUM cover or CD cover. So if you DON'T see (Copy) anywhere in that listing ... then it's THE REAL DEAL ... an "ORIGINAL" Picture Sleeve. I hope this clears up any confusion as to what is REAL and NOT REAL. If there is a problem and there has been and most likely will be in the future, it's because you; A - didn't bother read this or B - didn't really understand it ... come on ...Picture InformationTHESE ARE 4 HITS BY ' THE MARVELETTES ' ON 45's + 1P(Copy), FROM THE 60's! 1. 1961 TAMLA-54046 "PLEASE MR.

PLEASE CHECK MY FEEDBACK AND BID WITH CONFIDENCE! POSITIVE FEEDBACK IS ALWAYS GIVEN WHEN RECEIVED. IF I'VE STATED SOMETHING WRONG, I'LL TRY TO MAKE IT RIGHT! THANKS FOR LOOKING! Please read all notes before bidding or buying. This item comes with a 'copy' picture sleeve. IT IS NOT THE ORIGINAL PICTURE SLEEVE THAT WAS ISSUED WITH THE RECORD. It is just a sleeve that was made to enhance someone's collection. There may not have ever been a picture sleeve originally issued with the item, or the sleeve may have been too expensive or too difficult to find, or any other of a number of reasons. The sleeve photo may be of the original (if issued), a foreign issue picture sleeve, EP cover, LP cover or a CD cover and in some cases, the sheet music associated with the release. I will try to note the photo origin whenever I can. These 'copy' sleeves have no official collector value, but are a nice addition - better than just a blank sleeve. I will not consider the sleeve in deciding on a starting price for an auction, or a fixed price for a Buy-it-Now. The price will be based solely on the record. All of the copy sleeves will be pictured - usually only one side has a photo - one side will virtually always be blank. Please message me if you have any questions. BTW - all of the records containing these sleeves are original.

"ELVIS" HAS LEFT THE AUCTION!I personally write all of my own descriptions, take all of my own photos, and package all items for mailing myself.

Items pictured in any of my listings are always the actual items that buyers will receive from me. Thank you for viewing my auction. I appreciate your interest. Good luck bidding. *** All my auctions are now on Saturday & Sunday and sometimes just on Saturday. If you have a problem or just aren't sure of something ... just ask and I'll give you a quick reply or get back to A.S.A.P. ****** Thanks ... Mark *** *************** THIS IS A SMOKE-FREE ENVIRONMENT ***************** PLEASE READ: For international buyer only! I'm sorry but the recent rate postal rate hikes by the U.S. post office have given me no choice but to but to increase my shipping when you buy more than(4 lbs.) that's about 9-10 lots then shipping will go from First Class International to Priority International which adds about $10.00 to the shipping cost. So if you buy a lot and cross that line, please understand why there is a shipping cost increase ... I don't like it either ... but it has to be. Thanks for understanding and enjoy your records ... International shipping is posted, but if you have any questions ... please ask. I ship in the U.S. by Media Mail. My aim is to provide vintage vinyl records of a decent quality at a reasonable price. I list the lots, you the buyer determine what that value will be. Please note however, nearly all the records I sell are used, some nearly fifty+ years old, and not all but some will have some minor imperfections, so please read descriptions and look over the pictures carefully. Any questions feel free to ask. In order to ensure maximum satisfaction, you may return any record within seven days for a full refund, if you feel it does not live up to the description provided. I've had to after 6 years of being able to absorb the cost of living and Postal increases, I have to go from 1st class/priority shipping to Media Mail shipping and still charge the same rates as before, to help cover my increases in cost of supplies, gas, you name it ... and you get the general idea. It's the difference from making or losing money, which is a very fine line. I hope you understand. I'm still very competitive with other sellers and what they charge. If you have a problem with the shipping cost staying the same and me shipping by Media Mail, and I hope you don't ... please, just buy elsewhere. Thanks for looking - MARK *************** PLEASE READ *************** Many of the records I sell are 40-50+ years old and these older recording are more likely to have some type of minor imperfection, be it background noise (occasional popping or crackling sound), label marking's, label wear, etc. Some of your older records may have surface scratches which may affect the sound and playing of the record, then again some may not be affected at all, that's why I listen too the hit side and if there's a problem, I will throw away the record. These records are not going to be in mint condition, but trust me (Check My Feedback) ... they will be a welcome addition to your record collection and at a fair price, that won't break your piggy bank. I take the records I come across and clean them, listen too the hit-side and look at the B-side. When I come across a recording that doesn't sound good, and by that I mean something I couldn't listen too over & over again on my jukebox ... I throw it away. If you come across a recording that doesn't sound good to you, please just let me know ... don't worry ... we'll work a solution that we both can live with. Let's make this an enjoyable E-Baying experience for you and me. Positive feedback is something I value and work for very hard to accomplish. This is my hobby, but I take it very seriously and hope you will be very happy with your records, and I hope our paths will cross again. I appreciate all the buyers that pay quickly, but if you plan on buying more lots during the auction, please hold off until you're totally finished buying. This lets the automatic discounts I have set-up thru E-bay kick in and will then be given to you automatically ... without me having to go in and adjust the invoice myself. I will send you the updated the invoices as the auction goes along, but please remember that I may have too run an errand or two for my wife ... got to stay out of the "Dog House", so be patient ... trust me ... the updated invoice will get to you. If you do finish buying early and make payment ... before the auction has been completed ... just let me know that you are finished buying and I'll ship your records the next business day ... BUT YOU MUST LET ME KNOW ... IF YOU DON'T ... I WILL NOT SHIP UNTIL THE AUCTION IS DONE. That's why it is important to communicate with me ... because once I print off the E-bay address label and pay for the postage ... it's yours. If you do change your mind and want to buy more, we'll have to start from square one. I just want this to be a pleasant experience for both of us, so communicate with me ... it's just that simple ... really. It's really nice to be blessed with so many good paying customers ... I love what I do and hope you'll enjoy your records ... As you know, in addition to feedback, eBay also provides a 5 star rating system. I'm doing my best to achieve a 5 star rating and you can help me to achieve this by rating me and this transaction. Customer satisfaction is my number one goal. If you are happy with your purchase, I would appreciate it if you give me a 5 star rating. You can be assured I will return the favor by leaving you glowing positive feedback!
