OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In
order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any
concerns that may arise. Because of that dedication, there should be no
need to open a resolution dispute before working with us. Please keep
in mind, we would prefer to continue to provide you the opportunity to
acquire the rare music we present each and every week.
Payment
is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after
auctions end. Our listings are time consuming in
detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times
delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office.
Overseas mail to some countries Italy, Russia, France, in particular
has become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable. We work hard to provide
excellent service as is represented by our well over 22,000 positive feedback.
We use an ultrasonic KLAudio
machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully
packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of
3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad
inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery.
We
take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please
give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we
will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare
and collectible music We have served thousands of satisfied customers - far more than our feedback records indicate - and our aim is to continue to do so.
Thank you for your interest and support.

gt USA - PRIVATE PRESS - AUDIO HOUSE - AH 14568
Weight heavy thickness,exactly the SUPER-rare 1968 impossible 1 press.
This is the impossibly-rare 1968 Lawrence Kansas garage-psych dream, SMACK all on the rated Killer level of essential.
Little wonder values having sold for high hundred to thousand
Only around 100 or so copies made and most of those are seemingly lost in the past hardly ever turning up. Here are the SMACK ::::RAW HEAVY
Recorded in late July early August 1968 in Lawrence, Kansas USA. The
original issue was pressed in a quantity of 100 150 copies and sold to
other attendees at their campus. The thick/weighty platter contains nine fuzz-drenched covers
four Hendrix versions, three Cream jams, a Buffalo Springfield take,
and an interesting reinvention of a great Kinks track.
An original
Smack LP is rare as gold dust.
We have only seen 2 copies for sale the
past 20 years going for massive money - one of which we purchased for our
own collection, 2500 later.
The SMACK music is 100
greatness when talking 60s heavy rock garage in holy grail level, delivering
versions most know and love played with extra attitude,
feeling, and drive... heavy fuzz guitar everywhere, plus vocals, bass drums.
The
SMACK versions of Cream and Hendrix songs are 100 unique and decidedly
top-flight making the tunes their own.
