BEACH BOYS - Smiley Smile - UK Simply Vinyl LP Unplayed EX+
These records are all from my personal collection built up over almost 50 years. Some were bought new, others pre-owned so condition will vary. Please do read and understand the detailed description which is my honest personal assessment - you can always check how good or bad that is by checking my feedback. My attempt at grading is based on the commonly used Record Collector grading system. Questions are welcome if anything is unclear. Happy bidding
Anyway, this listing is for a limited edition reissued copy of The Beach Boys' 1967 album on 180gm vinyl
Beach Boys -
Smiley Smile
UK Simply Vinyl label
1967 - this release 2000
Cat Number: SVLP 219
Mode: Stereo
The Album:
The follow up to Pet Sounds was intended by Brian Wilson to be his 'Smile' project which he abandoned. Bits of it ended up on this album which became the successor - includes Good Vibrations and Heroes and Villains. I have never played it as I have an original scratchy '67 release which I stuck to playing - it has been opened and resealed a couple of times so I just opened it again to take the happy snaps. This is as close to a mint album as I am going to have, so I will happily grade it as EX+/EX+
Cover: Single unlaminated sleeve is in near perfect order. No wear, no stains, no tears, no stickers, no writing. The spine is perfectly defined with all text clearly legible. It has stayed that way because it has lived sealed in its very heavy duty Simply Vinyl protective sleeve - that too is in fine order except that one corner of the rear top flap has been folded back on itself..
Labels: Bright clean unmarked labels. No spindle marks. Excellent
Vinyl: Vinyl has no obvious marks. I can't say how it plays as I have no intention of being the first to play it - as I have decided to pass it on, that pleasure goes to the purchasere.
Overall:
A near perfect copy of this album - I don't use M/NM grades so I'll grade it at (cover/vinyl) EX+ / EX+
Terms:
Please note that I try to test-play at least part of each record before listing, but do not have time to play fully in all cases. I did not play one as I don't think it has ever been played - if you do discover a problem, please do not hesitate to contact me and I will do all I can to rectify the situation. .
Postage: Reflecting new Royal Mail charges April 2014: Within UK, weight ranges usually allow up to three LPs to be posted for the same cost as one. For all other destinations costs are weight dependent, but incremental cost from additional LP's will normally cost less than the first. I am happy to hold records for a while if you wish to bid on more and combine shipment, but it helps if you can let me know particularly when bidding on items separated by a few days. Approximate prices for normal postage & packing -
UK £3.55 for up to 1kg (1,2 or 3 average weight LPs).
Europe £5.50 normal airmail, £10.50 signed-for. + £1.45 each additional,
Rest of world £7.80 normal airmail, £12.80 signed-for. + £2.70 each additional item
These amounts include actual Royal Mail cost for first class or air mail, plus 35p for cost of packaging material (a brand new custom mailer with stiffener). The greedy snouts in the trough at Ebay now charge sellers 10% of postage costs for which there can be no justification - I refuse to pass this shameful levy on to buyers, so you only pay post and packing.
Apologies, but owing to unreliability of some postal services, I will not ship to Italy, Russian Federation, & other former Soviet countries unless a signed for service is selected and paid for.
Losses: Royal Mail have reduced maximum compensation to £20 unless items are signed-for. Compensation on signed-for shipments is up to £50. Overseas purchasers - if your purchase is well over £20, a signed for service must be selected when paying or shipping will be at your own risk, not mine, and normal airmail will only be covered for up to £20.
Payment by Sterling cheque / money order, or via Paypal
I have decided to sell my whole vinyl collection as I know it won't be appreciated by my daughter or grandchildren, so I'm shifting it myself and hope I find good homes for it. Listed items are selected at random so there should be a decent if not particularly logical mix coming up over the next few months if you keep an eye on my other items now and in the future.
Thank you to all who have already given new homes to my precious vinyl, and may you continue to enjoy these records for years to come.
