Description: This is Seattle instrumental rock icons The Ventures playing "Telstar/The Lonely Bull" on Dolton BST 8019 from 1962. This stereo LP record looks to be a strong VG++ with very minor surface markings but plays in MINT condition with no audio defects noted during the testing of this record. The jacket is in NM to MINT condition (awesome!!!). This comes in a clear, poly-vinyl protective sleeve. This is the nicest copy of this album I've seen in over 40 years. It is practically MINT. Just a few very faint surface markings. U.S. postage and handling is $5.00 on this item. International customers should email me first for a shipping quote. All LP's will be shipped with the record outside the jacket to protect the jacket during shipment. I grade in direct sunlight or under a high-intensity lamp to assure the most accurate grading possible. However, you have my unconditional guarantee that I will take the records back if you think that the records are not as stated. My reputation is what has kept me in business for 45 years. If you win multiple auctions, I will combine packaging to save you as much postage as possible. I ship with sturdy cardboard packaging to protect your records. Please review my feedback from previously satisfied customers. I have been buying and selling records for 45 years now and as of February 2024 I am celebrating 25 years on eBay. Definitions: Mint = 10 = Just like it came from the factory. May still be factory sealed. These will generally be priced close to collector value. NM = 9 = Near Mint = Very minor surface markings that do not interfere with the audio playback. These will generally be priced at 80% to 90% of collector value. VG++ = 7.5 = Very Good++ = The surface markings are more noticeable and may or may not affect the audio playback. Sometimes a record can look VG++ but still play in NM condition. These will generally be priced at 60% to 75% of collector value. VG+ = 5 = Very Good+ = Now the surface markings are quite noticeable and they will generally be heard during audio playback. These will generally be priced at 40% to 50% of collector value. Generally, I will not list records below VG+ unless it is a rare record of importance to collectors.
