Description
Tell your family, tell your friends... you have been warned! I have my entire vinyl collection of nearly 70 mostly gem mint and rare Iron Maiden pieces going up! So keep an eye on my listings, ask as many questions as needed, and Good Luck!
Info: This auction item you are looking at is the original U.S. vinyl pressing of a Promotional 12" Single by Iron Maiden for the song "2 Minutes to Midnight" and backed with "Rime of the Ancient Mariner," both from the "Powerslave" album. It was released on Capitol Records (SPRO-9211/9212) in 1984. The reverse side of the "album-like" jacket has the lyrics to both songs and includes "PROMOTIONAL COPY/NOT FOR SALE." The labels on each side also say, "NOT FOR SALE." The inner sleeve is clear, anti-static plastic.
ALWAYS a low-starting bid and NO Sales Tax and NO Reserve!
Condition: Everything about this is Mint with very, very minor shelf wear. I purchased this from a local record convention and it has always been in a protective cover.
Track Listing:
Side 1: 2 Minutes to Midnight
Side 2: Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Keep an eye on my listings as I am posting lots of records here over the next several months!
Quality and Storage: Having played these records in my past (or not at all!), I don’t recall any of these records having issues such as being warped or having skips. I never loaned them out, never touched the actual vinyl and have always been a mint-condition freak. In the early days, to cut down on vinyl usage, I used to make and play an audio cassette version made from the vinyl.
As I cannot take an hour to list each item with every possible detail (but will do my best!), I will gladly answer any questions if there is anything specific information you need to know about the listing that I did not cover.
I have only lived in two places over the last 25 years and the records have been living in their own custom-made cabinets inside a non-smoking household. They have never been in storage or abused in any way.
If you are looking for something specific and I have it, I will list it for you upon request.
About Me & My Collection: I was the guitar player/writer in the progressive metal band, CASSLE. (You can find out more on our website.) Being a huge music fan, I spent many years working in and around the record business in Los Angeles. The famed record chain, Amoeba Records, has been virtually frothing at the mouth to purchase my collection. Since I and a lot of the working world are between jobs right now, I thought it best to sell to the general public.
What the collection offers is lots of old records that were out of print and in decent shape to cut-outs and promo stamped versions, white label promos to immaculate records in store-bought condition to picture discs, colored vinyl, bootlegs and lots of imports from all over the world such as the high quality releases from Germany and Japan. Lots of titles with their original cover art and/or original labels, some in their original unopened shrink wrap! If I bought it new and it had any additional inserts... they will still be there.
International Shipping: I will ship internationally ONLY if you are patient to receive the item because it is a time-consuming procedure that I cannot easily do from home like I can for domestic shipments. Shipping costs outside of the US can be expensive so only bid if you are serious. Shipping discounts still apply for multiple items won. Please wait for me to invoice you on all International shipments and please note that there will be an approximate handling fee of $3.
