Only 1015 in existence

Well, here it is. A lot of my friends have asked me to sell this to them over the years. Ebay is totally neutral, and please, no one get butt-hurt over this.

Everyone agrees this record is a classic and it is a staple in any collection. This one happens to be purple.

I'm ready to pass it on, I think. This one hurts the most because I love the music so much, and I was proud to have it.

Good luck.

I am liquidating my record collection, holding almost nothing back, starting with LP's. If this goes well, I'll do 7"s next. It funny, doing this has stirred up a lot of emotions, so yeah, this hurts a little.

I'm just done serving as custodian to things. I'm simply seeking a more zen-like existence, completely focused on tattooing. So, I'm looking for new homes for this vinyl I amassed, mostly in the 90's. These records have been safely stored for about 2 decades.

This auction ends on July 27th between 10:00am - 5:00 pm. During those hours, I and the records will be at the "Nerd Flea Market" held at Artisinal tattoo  in Somerville, NJ. There, you can inspect the records you have your eye on before bidding, and if you win, you can save on shipping, pay cash, and carry your winning(s) home for good. You can also pick up your item(s) at Seppuku Tattoo in Bloomingdale, NJ.

If you can't make it, don't worry, I'll be happy to ship anywhere. For combined orders in my lot, just add $2 for each additional item.

I will ship internationally at buyers expense, and buyers risk. Let me know your preferred method of shipping, and I will accomodate all reasonable requests. Keep in mind that insurance and customs can get tricky when shipping internationally.

Feel free to ask any questions about the items to identify what pressing or whatever. And you can contact me if you need additional pictures. I'll do my best to fulfill all reasonable requests.

Ugh. Im an idiot. The auction obviously ends on SUNDAY, JANUARY 27th, not July 27th, as stated in the auction description that I cannot go in and change at this point. I guess I have visions of summer in my scatterbrain.

I just added another photo (shot on a light table) since the record looks almost black in thw main photo.

It's pretty. I am going to miss this one. I kinda hope it stays in the "family"...
