SHIPPING - Discounts on quantity and shipping
Albums are packaged in bubble bag, cardboard fillers on both sides and sealed in LP mailer for best protection. I always play grade albums that are for International shipment. If this is an International purchase, you will be sent an invoice from ebay "Global Shipping" for actual shipping cost. I have decided to use this method because as a buyer you will now have a tracking number and insurance claim options. Combined shipping is available ONLY if you PLACE ITEMS IN “SHOPPING CART” AND THEN PURCHASE. If you are buying International please email me before purchase so I can weigh the item for final shipment as all weights are estimated. THIS MAY SAVE YOU SHIPPING COSTS.
Those cut-outs and hole punches in a record covers - why did they do it?
In the recording industry, a cut-out refers to a deeply-discounted or remaindered copy of an LP, cassette tape, Compact Disc, or other item. When LPs were the primary medium for distribution or recording, manufacturers would physically cut the corner, punch a hole, or add a notch to the spine of the jacket of unsold records returned from retailers; these "cut-outs" might then be re-sold to record retailers or other sales outlets for sale at a discounted price.
