Unfortunately I need to cash in on some of my record collection to help fund my retirement so..........................
Excellent (EX) The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
For auction here is a very nice copy of the very desirable 7" UK copy of Dantalion's Chariot with "The Madman Running Through The Fields" coupled with "Sun Came Bursting Through My Cloud". This single was released on the Columbia label in 1967 cat number DB 8260. One of the all-time great UK Psych singles. This is the SOLID CENTRE version. You will be very lucky to get a better copy than this, it plays perfectly.
I have faith that this record will reach its true value and so I have no reserve on it.
The company sleeve is in an EX- condition, just a corner crease. I have to say that I am not 100% certain that it is the exact sleeve for this record but it must be very close at the least.
The labels are excellent with no stickers and no writing but there are some spindle marks.
Visually, the vinyl looks excellent .
I have played the single both sides and it plays excellent with hardly any unwanted noise at all.
For playback I use an Ortofon cartridge on a Technics SL1210MK2 through a Denon DRA 375RD amplifier to Wharfdale 3200 speakers.
Please bid with confidence as I have a 100% positive feedback rating.
I am willing to post multiple items abroad which will be tracked and signed-for. Payments for this method go direct through Paypal as Ebay's GSP does not cater for multiple item sales unfortunately.
I try to adhere as closely as possible to the Record Collector Magazine grading system which is shown below as a guide. I do ad + and - to gradings for intermediate conditions. Any record described as 'Mint' will mean 'Unplayed'.
RECORD COLLECTORS GRADING SYSTEM

The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet. booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records marked as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

Very Good (VG) The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects is acceptable Good (G) Te record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc Fair (F) The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced. Poor (P) The record will not play properly due to scratched, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing Bad (B) The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-fillerprice rating
