       ****PLEASE KINDLY READ THE FOLLOWING INFO BEFORE THE RECORD DETAILS*****

I have entered a detailed description below but firstly I would like to highlight a few points to any potential buyers.

I am currently listing a number of albums for a family member, Beatles or related, heavy rock 70's and 80's, classic albums, and 12" singles,

As I have prepared the listings for these, I have noted in most cases the condition of these are excellent plus with the majority of them receiving little or even no play at all, clearly the records have been well cared for, so if you're looking to upgrade or want the piece of mind you are getting a high quality item look no further than some of these, please feel free therefore to check out my other items currently listed

I have collected records on and off for over 30 years, and the introduction of eBay has provided a valuable medium for collector and sellers alike, however fundamentally it does mean you are purchasing blind up to a point and certainly rely on the description being accurate and detailed, specifically with an item such as vinyl, as a result I always endeavour to enter as detailed a description as possible, err on the side of caution and leave nothing to chance, as a result it may appear that the record actually has more issues than normal,this is my attempt to offer as much piece of mind as possible.

Where reasonably possible, and when time allows I will test play the record all the way through at high volume on a very high quality system and while it's not practical to play all the records I list all the way through, where time won't allow a full play of the record, I will at least play random tracks and and where I visually detect any deep scratches or marks to see if they affect play, in addition I also always play various places in between tracks which is the best test of any distortion or issues. I will remark in the description if I have played the entire record for soundness or as above sample random tracks

All my grading's are based on that given in the Record Collector Rare Record Guide and for further piece of mind offer the following refund policy:

I would very much like to retain, and indeed add to my 100% feedback rating so please In the unlikely event any purchaser of any item from me feels that the item is not as described and/or is unhappy with the item, provided I am advised of the issue within 7 days of receipt of the item I will refund in full with no arguments once I have received the item back including a refund for second class recorded post. Please contact me for any issues that you have rather than just leave a negative rating, I am open and willing to sort any issues out to every ones satisfaction, again a s a buyer for a long time myself I know how disappointing it can be if things are not as they appear once received, in addition if their is any item you wish to query or any aspect ot the item you want more info on again contact me and I will be happy to answer any questions where I can. 

To minimise postage and packing costs, I use recycled packaging however all records will be packed as a minimum carefully in a polythene sleeve with cardboard stiffeners, and the record removed from the sleeve to avoid further ring wear during dispatch, in addition to which all records will be receive a deep clean from a VPI specialist vacuum record cleaner to remove any dust and deposits, so play and visual condition described for these records can only improve once listed and purchased. All items are mailed recorded second class to UK buyers to enable me to track any item should the need arise and also provide insurance for any losses or damage, if the item values at more than the insurance provided by this process I will mailman to a higher class of post that does cover the items value.

To minimise shipping costs for international buyers I post standard airmail, if however for added piece of mind, to enable the item to be tracked you wish to consider the option of airmail signed for please feel free to contact me and I will be happy to quote you a revised shipping cost for this service.

Ok sorry about that, rant over just wanted to make it clear where I'm coming from, description of the record below.

MATRIX NUMBERS - YEX 959 - 1/YEX 960 - 1 

STAMPERS - OG  1 HTM/MG 2

COVER - EX Glossy front and rear panels, light spidery hairline creases running from edges, 4 or 5 from each edge max 3 cm, slight storage wear bumping to corners, spine, top and bottom edges retain their shape without rubbing or marks, opening edge light wear, rear panel has one or two nib marks only visible at a certain angle, approx 5cm long max, I stress these are only very minor issues. The 24 page colour stapled insert is EX, totally intact with no writing, rips or marks, inner gatefold has some light dark rub marks to right of centre fold, nothing here of significance with respect to condition. 

INNER SLEEVE/INSERTS EX- EMI 'Care Of Your Record' white paper inner sleeve, light handling creases and slight disc impression.

LABELS - EX/EX Light spidery, almost invisible, spindle trails to both silver and black Parlophone labels, with no other marks or writing

VINYL VISUAL - EX/EX Disc weight -120gm Careful inspection of both sides of the record reveal light wispy paper sleeve marks

VINYL PLAY EX/EX I test played random tracks throughout and in between tracks at high volume on my very unforgiving Bang and Olufsen all tracks I played were near perfect with only the very light static crackle you would expect from a record, in this case which has probably received moderate play, but been well looked after,  near silence between tracks, the record played totally flat with no warping.

I would suspect apart from my random test play, this record has received numerous careful plays from new.

AGAIN ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE CONTACT ME

GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY BIDDING
