** PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PURCHASE **
I BOUGHT THIS FOR £120 VIA THE PAGES OF RECORD COLLECTOR ABOUT TWENTY YEARS AGO, IT WAS ADVERTISED AS "VERY GOOD" CONDITION. WHEN IT ARRIVED I FOUND THAT IT HAD BEEN SKIMMED, MUCH TO MY ANNOYANCE. THE SELLER REFUSED TO REFUND ME AS IT "WAS IN THE CONDITION STATED" SO I RELUCTANTLY HAD TO KEEP IT. ALTHOUGH THE SURFACE LOOKS SHINY YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE POLISHED OUT SCRATCHES IN THE WAX. ON SIDE ONE THERE IS ONE SCRATCH (picture 6) WHICH CLICKS ON PLAYBACK, THOUGH THE RECORD DOES NOT JUMP AT ALL. IT'S NOT TOO ANNOYING BUT YOU CAN HEAR IT. THERE IS ALSO SOME HEAT DAMAGE TO THE OUTER EDGE (picture 7) BUT THIS DOESN'T AFFECT PLAYBACK ON MY TURNTABLE. THE SLEEVE IS THE ONE IT WAS ORIGINALLY SUPPLIED IN AND IS AN ORIGINAL, NOT A REPRO. I HAVE FINALLY MANAGED TO SOURCE AN UPGRADE SO THIS ONE IS READY FOR SOMEBODY ELSE TO OWN AND HOPEFULLY CHERISH. OBVIOUSLY IT'S NOT PERFECT, BUT IT IS A VERY RARE 45 AND MIGHT FILL IN A GAP (LIKE IT DID FOR ME) UNTIL THAT ELUSIVE MINT COPY COMES ALONG. WITH ALL THE ABOVE IN MIND AND THE FACT I'VE BEEN TOTALLY HONEST OF THE CONDITION THIS RECORD CAN ONLY BE SOLD WITH 'NO RETURNS'.
