If i'm here, i'll pick up and gladly guide you towards a finished order!
a) ORDERING MIXES:
All mixes & label histories are available on CD or cassette (if it mentions "cassette").
MIXES or ARCHIVE/LABEL HISTORIES:
- $10: 1CD sets (70 to 80 minutes)
- $15: 2CD sets (90 to 160 minutes)
- on cassette: $5 each regardless of length!
NOTE: all mixes still available on cassette IF it references "cassette".
- Savvy customers: consider "cassette" and burn it to cd yourself. It'll save you 50% and, in many cases, have Bonus Minutes not available on the CD version. The cassettes are 90-110m., cd's are 80m. Something had to GO in the transition, unless you see that i've formatted it as a 2cd set. Tho i'm nuking the cassette option little by little, there are some items still available on cassette. 50% off. The entire original mix. What's not to love about the little effort involved to burn it to CD yourself? You're gonna listen to it ANYway: why not listen to it the way it went down and make it yours YOUR way...AND save some money?
- All mixes are 70-160 (!) minutes, depending on the length of the master. If a mix doesn't specify (ie. 1cd, 2cd, etc.), just E-MAIL US and i'll let you know.
- Order MIXES by number AND DJ/title.
- Order ARCHIVE HISTORIES by its' actual name, as there are no "order numbers" involved.
- Important: PLEASE SPECIFY YOUR PREFERRED FORMAT WHEN ORDERING: CD or cassette.
- CD's come in white sleeves, and see the AJ site to print out the linernotes.
- All mixes, be they cassette or cd, are on "name brand" Maxell/TDK/Memorex/etc. products.
- Detailed track listings are in the MIXTAPES section.
Feel free to print out the tracklistings to create a "paper catalog".

b) VIDEO TAPES:
Order items in the regular "commercial master" section by title.
You'll see the price by the particular item.
Order items in the "Rare Video" section by title/volume number.
- ONE movie on ONE tape: $15.
- Various artists collections/compilations: $30.
- Starred ( * ) items
(extra-length OVER 2 hour collections): $40 (spread out on 2 tapes).
- We always use decent-grade name-brand tapes (Sony, Fuji, etc.).
- Please add .
Track-by-track listings for the compilations will be available on the site. If not, you can NOW get info on some of what's available by clicking over to the VIDEO ROOM.
Tape quality of the "Rare Video" section varies from A to C due to source and rarity, but you'll get a clone of ours and we supply the best quality available on the material in question. So say the many satisfied customers, dig?
We're always upgrading when the opportunity presents itself. WE have to be generally pleased ourselves to add it to the catalog in the first place. HEY, we're fans too, you know?
Suggestions for future titles are always welcome. Many new items appeared BECAUSE of suggestions from our customers! If you have cool stuff (audio/video/print), we may even consider a trade, so send your lists.

c) CD/LP/MAGS/ETC.:
Basically: you send dough = you get item. Simple. Painless. Guaranteed. However:
Verify that the piece is still in stock. All CD/vinyl/print items are usually "onesies".
Because records, cd's and print items are usually the ONLY one we have, insurance is highly recommended since we can't replace it. Add the proper and we'll send it MediaRate or Air. Especially important if you order only 1-3 vinyl pieces (risk of damage due to thinness of package, so add accordingly). Particularly with vinyl, the postage on ONE record will probably be fairly high and VERY HIGH if non-U.S. Not trying to GAUGE you here, just ensuring that you get it in one piece, so there's extra padding and packaging and shipping forms involved.

d) CUSTOM TRANSFERS:
Transferring an OUT-OF-PRINT jam or album FROM its' otherwise unavailable
original format, TO cassette or CD. We have just about everything, as AJ regulars
know so well. Ask us if we're
able to hook you up. Either via our already-done AJ Archive Histories with
your requested track, OR we'll transfer it from the original out-of-print
sound source specifically for you.
We're particularly good with any original 12" mixes and DJ-only mix service
remixes or out of print jams, in any of the following genres (and don't be
worried about 'stumping' me, it happens but RARELY): hiphop, 80's electro, bass,
freestyle, ny house, chicago house, detroit techno, soul, funk, disco, garage,
black radio grooves from back in the day, 70's vocal group soul, 60's soul,
breakbeats, early 60's uptown soul, 50's doowop, "Northern" soul of the 60's &
70's.....basically, ANYthing in the black music field.
Rock-wise, we got all the genre/cult stuff: rockabilly, 50's rock 'n' roll, teen
idols, girl group, instrumental combos, British Invasion, 60's garage/punk,
flowerpower, psyche, acidrock, cheesy 70's, glitter/glam, 70's punk, new wave,
powerpop, synthwave, Batcave era and goth, industrial, rare import stuff.
E-me at apollojams@yahoo.com
and let's get busy! Access to the Apollojams Archives is a privilege that you'll
appreciate once you see how easy it is to get things you NEVER thought you'd
EVER own. I don't dick around. If i have it, BAM!, you have it! As i stress many
times throughout this site, what you see posted is NOTHING compared to
what i have literally within reach.

For all regular "set sale" orders (for auctions, see above), add the following to your item total:
Recent ebay/paypal fee hikes have forced us to raise our s/h fees. Sorry, but no exceptions.
- U.S. (media), LP/video: $5 + $1 each add. Smaller items (7"/cd/dvd): $2.50 + $1 each add.
- AL/HI/Can./Mex. (air ONLY), LP/video: $8 + $1 each add. (adjusted for smaller items).
- Non-U.S. (air ONLY), LP/video: $13 + $1 each add.
- Non-U.S. (air ONLY), smaller items (7"/cd/dvd): $8 + $1 each add.
- JAPAN/Pacific Rim (air ONLY), LP/video: $14 + $2 each add.
- JAPAN/Pacific Rim (air ONLY), smaller items (7"/cd/dvd): $10 + $1 each add.
- NOTE!: $2 handling fee on non-U.S. orders (or final bids) under $20: extra forms/work involved. IF YOU PAY WITHOUT INCLUDING THIS $2 FEE (IF YOUR WINNING BID IS UNDER $20), WE WILL CANCEL THE BUY/AUCTION. This is NON-waivable if your item total is below $20, BUT we will gladly waive this handling fee if you get your ITEM TOTAL above $20: see my other auctions or direct "set sale" on my site to get your total over $20.
Apollojams Insurance (recommended, should anything become lost or damaged):
$1.50 for $50 coverage. $2.50 for $100 coverage.
Apollojams Insurance will replace any items created from our masters.
Or credit your account if it's a one-of-a-kind piece (a record or CD or print item).
We are not responsible for uninsured items once they're shipped.
To conclude:
+ item total
+ shipping/handling charges
+ insurance (if requested) charge
= your final total.
We accept payment via PAYPAL.
If you don't have a PayPal account, send U.S. cash via overnight mail..
Our PayPal "send to" is " apollojams@yahoo.com ".
-------------------------
Please understand that we can't go "out-of-pocket" if you don't send enough. We'll have to downgrade the shipping method to stay within what you've added.
We ship out once a month, I don't automatically run to the post office upon your order. Jeez, you're ordering stuff from 20 years ago! What's another week or two? You can wait a little bit, it'll get there. Guaranteed.
All returns must be approved first, and will be for a replacement of the same item, or, if a one-of-a-kind thing, credit only. Valid return reasons include: damaged or defective. Period. Everything else is just a highly subjective headache for both of us. Frankly, after 25 years of doing this, we've had at MOST maybe one or two "problems" with customers. We always handle this sort of situation in a very cool, understanding manner if it's a legitimate problem.
