Vinyl: Johny Mathis Those Were The Days Columbia CS 9705 Stereo Vinyl Record LP SEALED

Why buy your classic vinyl from us?

Since 99% of the records we sell are pre-owned and previously listened to, before we even purchase a record for resale, we visually inspect it for cracks, scratches, and faults.

If a record we purchase does not come with an inner sleeve, or the original sleeve is trashed, we provide a NEW generic sleeve. If the original sleeve is a dedicated sleeve to that album, we will include it even if it is trashed.

Before we take photos of the record listed, we clean it by hand using an alcohol based cleaning system.

We strive to listen to each record all the way through before listing them for sale (unless still sealed in shrinkwrap) and will highlight any imperfections so you know what you are getting. All records are play tested before listing (unless otherwise noted).

If we cannot or have not been able to listen to the record, we will indicate that on the listing and offer it as a collectible only, OR if you are truly interested in the record for sale, we will take the time to listen to it for you before you buy, upon request!

AND ABOUT VINYL RECORDS: These aren't CDs. You WILL here some measure of surface noise, even on a factory sealed/never played record. All sound systems are different. All my assessments are based off what I hear on my stereo system. What I note in the listing is what I hear on my stereo.

Shipping our records to you involves the following:

We take the record and inner sleeve out of the outer (cover) sleeve (unless factory sealed)

We wrap the record and sleeves in bubble wrap, leaving the record in the inner sleeve. I feel this protects the vinyl, but if you want everything separated in the box, please let us know before shipping!

We ship your record(s) to you in a sturdy record shipping box

About us:

I'm not selling vintage vinyl because it's the "in" thing to do... I am a record collector and my wife and I love to listen to them. Since I was a kid in the 1970's I dreamed of owning a record store and this is the culmination of a childhood dream, only a little different.

So, as far as what I offer for sale: "If it wouldn't be in my own personal collection, I won't sell it". It wouldn't even make it through our door.

PLEASE READ OUR "FINE PRINT":

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT WE GENERALLY SELL PRE-OWNED (USED) RECORDS. WE STRIVE TO BE ACCURATE AND WHEN WE SAY SUPER CLEAN VINYL, IT GENERALLY MEANS THAT THE SOUND QUALITY IS SUPER CLEAN, NOT THE VISUAL CONDITION. WE WILL TAKE THE TIME BEFORE YOU BUY TO ANSWER QUESTIONS SO THAT YOU ARE SATISFIED WITH YOUR PURCHASE!

WE DO NOT "GOLDMINE GRADE" OR GRADE RECORDS IN ANY OTHER WAY! WE LOOK AT THE VINYL AND MORE IMPORTANTLY PLAY THE RECORD BEFORE LISTING IT. ANY CONDITION ISSUES ARE NOTED IN THE LISTING. WE DO NOT GRADE RECORDS AS WE FEEL IT IS TOO SUBJECTIVE. IF YOU ASK WHAT THE GOLDMINE GRADING OF A RECORD IS, WE WILL KINDLY ASK YOU TO RE-READ THE ENTIRE LISTING.
