Package offerings and comparison (or go
straight to the lists)
The three packages are:
Collector's Package: price $50.00 + actual shipping cost (3 lb.
14oz.)
* $5.72 to $10.20 by Priority Mail in the U.S. (calculate at www.usps.com)
* International rate
to Canada is from $23.99.
* International rate
to the U.K. and Australia is $35.29 and 39.95 respectively.
Mid-range Package: price $30.00 + actual shipping cost (2 lb. 8oz.)
* $5.08 to $10.20 by Priority Mail in the U.S. (calculate at www.usps.com)
* International rates will be provided on request.
Value Package: price $10.00 + actual shipping cost (1lb. 11oz.)
* $4.90 to $8.82 by Priority Mail in the U.S. (calculate at www.usps.com)
* International rate anywhere in the world is $12.78.
In addition, a small fee will be added to cover packaging
and the costs of processing the transaction.
Except on ebay transactions, I will consider, on request,
less expensive mailing options (such as media mail in the U.S. and first
class international) but this is at your own risk. I will not replace
packages that are "lost in the mail."
The items that are available in the most limited quantities
will only be offered in the Collector's Package. All of the packages offer
certain upgrade options if you are interested in obtaining additional
quantities of items. You may purchase more than one package and they will
be combined (if desired) or shipped to separate addresses as you so choose
as long as you pay the shipping costs. All prices on this page are in
U.S. dollars.
All of the items are in perfect, mint condition (no damage,
smudges, fading, or yellowing) with the following exceptions:
1. Most of the fold-out lyrics posters show some ink smearing on the back
side due to handling at the printer. Some of these may also have a very
small folded-over point at the very edge of the corner.
2. The small membership cards and large membership certificates curl slightly
because of being stored in shrink-wrapped packs rather than stored flat.
Package Summary
The following tables shows a comparison of the contents
and upgrade options for the three packages.
You can view
the complete lists of the contents by package (summary), or look in
the following tables to compare them.

Table 2: Upgrade options for the
packages.
n/a means the upgrade is not available in that package.
A price in the field means additional quantities are offered at that price
if you purchase that package. The pricing and limits have been set based
on the available quantity of each item.
In the U.S. and most other countries, Priority Mail postage is determined
in one pound increments, so you can add some items without increasing
the mailing cost. Weights of some items have been included for your convenience.

Special information regarding the large format band members
postcards
Quantities of these are very limited. If you purchase
a Collector's Package, you may, if you choose, also purchase one set
of the large format band member postcards if a set is still available.
You may not purchase any of the large format cards as an upgrade option
to the other packages. You may not purchase cards individually if a set
is available. When the more limited cards sell out, you will have the
option to purchase remaining cards individually. This web page will be
updated occasionally to reflect availability.
There were apparently two printings of the Debbie Harry card. The photograph
and the text are both identical, but the photograph is printed darker
in the one of the printings and is consequently slightly better quality.
The other band member cards all appear to be from the same printing. You
may select from one of the two printings but not both.
The following pricing information applies (available quantity is the original
quantity from December 2006, not the current remaining number; offer ends
when depleted):

The cards offered are in excellent condition. Some cards
that have been slightly damaged due to storage and handling are available
individually; email for more information if you are interested. Unfortunately,
no Jimmy Destri cards were in the lot, so none are available. A limited
number of these and some other items in imperfect condition are available
on request at a significant discount.
If you want to purchase any cards in this upgrade option,
please confirm availability before sending your payment.
How to order
To order a package or to request your total, send
an email by clicking on this link. Specify what package(s) you are
ordering and what upgrades you want, if any. Include your name, mailing
address, email address, and method of payment, and any other information
(such as special requests for shipping or insurance, etc.). USPS Priority
Mail with no extra services will be used unless you request otherwise.
Your package will be reserved when you send the email. The

You will have 5 days from then to complete your payment.
Payment information
In the U.S., you may pay as follows:
* money order: your order will be shipped immediately when I receive it.
* personal check: your order will be shipped when your check clears.
* PayPal: your order will be shipped immediately but you will also be
charged for the PayPal fee that is normally paid by the seller unless
I know you and you agree to send it as a personal (gift) transfer. I will
add the PayPal fee to your order total and give you the total by email
when I give you the payment email address. This fee ranges from $0.74
for a Value Package in the U.S. to about $3.69 for a Collector's Package
sent internationally. If you wish to pay by PayPal, you will get payment
information with your confirmation email. Do not use the email address
on this page for payments.

Barry L. Kramer
4260 New Holland Road
Mohnton PA 19540-8651

must be weighed to determine the correct mailing cost. You will receive
an email with the payment amount.
