FOR BIDDERS WITH ZERO FEEDBACK THIS IS ALSO VERY IMPORTANT...   I have recently been the victim of serveral spurious bids from several different members (usually based in the Russian Federation). Please note that if you win any of my items and have zero feedback I will ask you for immediate payment or for you to email and immediately confirm that you were a genuine bidder. Failiure to meet either of those critiera will result in the item being  offered to the next highest bidder without further delay. thank you. 

ALL MY RECORDS ARE USUALLY SOLD ON VISUAL GRADINGS ONLY, THEREFORE ( WITH THE SINGULAR EXCEPTION OF THOSE RARE OCCASSIONS WHERE I DO STATE THEY HAVE BEEN PLAY GRADED ) AS ALL DISCS ARE 2ND HAND ANY PLAYING DEFECTS ARE CAVIAT EMPTOR AND SO ARE NOT ANY BASIS FOR A REFUND. HOWEVER YOU MAY STILL TRADE WITH CONFIDENCE AS I DO  REFUND  WHEREVER AN ACTUAL GRADING OF MINE IS EVER DISPUTED.

 THIS IS THE FIRST OF THREE LOVELY AND INCREDIBLY RARE LED ZEP UK VARAINTS I AM LISTING........ THIS COPY IS NOT ONLY AN INCREDIBLY RARE EXAMPLE OF THE EARLIEST UNCORRECTED " WRECK " RED/PLUM BUT IS ALSO A LOVELY EXAMPLE WITH GREAT VINYL AND BETTER THAN AVERAGE LIGHT BROWN SLEEVE  AND IS ALMOST IMPOSIBLE TO FIND ONE OF THESE IN ANYTH INGLIKE THIS CONDITION !! 

THE ATLANTIC RED PLUM LABELS ON THIS LP LAST UNTIL EARLY 1972 WHEN KIINEY TOOK OVER FROM POLYDOR IN THE UK AND THEY SWITCHED TO THE GREEN/ORANGE LABELS AND K FOR KINNEY CATALOGUE NUMBERS

AS USUAL WITH LED ZEP THERE WERE SEVERAL ERRORS MADE WHEN THESE LABELS WERE FIRST PRODUCED, BAR FAR THE REAREST ARE LABELS LIKE THESE WITH " LIVING LOVING WRECK "ON THEM AS THIS WAS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY CORRECT TO " LIVING LOVING MAID " PROBABLY DURING PRE-RELEASE AND VERY FEW OF THESE TURN UP FOR SALE !

OF COURSE ALL " WRECK " LABEL COPIES CARRY " THE LEMON SONG " AS THIS WAS NOT AN ERROR BUT HAD TO BE CHANGED SOME TIME LATER TO " KILLING FLOOR " DUE TO A LAW SUIT FROM THE ORIGINAL COMPOSER

THESE EARLIEST LABELS ARE HIGHLY PRIZED NOW AND HARDLY EVER TURN UP ( JUST LOOK FOR ANOTHER ) LET ALONE IN DECENT CONDITION, BUT THIS COPY IS IN LOVELY CONDITION, THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO OWN A TRUELY NICE EXAMPLE SO DON'T MISS OUT, GOOD LUCK TO ALL BIDDERS!!

 ITEMS THAT SELL WILL BE BY RECORDED SIGNED FOR DELIVERY WHICH FOR A SINGLE LP IS GBP 3.99 AND FOR A DOUBLE 4.99, THIS IS TO PREVENT ANY FRAUDULANT CLAIMS OF NON RECEIPT.

(Please note that whilst I try to endeavour to adhere to strict RC gradings I will never describe ANYTHING AS MINT even when I think it to be so. As far as I am concerned any secondhand item by definition cannot be mint. However if I believe an item to be Mint  I will instead either use the terms Near Mint, mint minus, or in archive or vault condition. When I use these terms you know that in my opinion this is in effect a de-facto Mint grade )

Dont forget to take a look at my other items. Please feel free to contact me with any queries you may have.

                                             ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I ONLY DO A COUPLE OF RUNS A WEEK TO THE POST OFFICE BUT MY ITEMS ARE ALWAYS DISPATCHED WELL WITHIN ONE CALENDAR WEEK OF PAYMENT BEING RECEIVED. I APOLOGISE IN ADVANCE TO THOSE BUYERS WHO SEEM TO EXPECT THEIR ITEM TO ARRIVE THE NEXT DAY, IF YOU WANT TO CHECK WHEN AN ITEM WAS SENT JUST PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME AND I WILL BE VERY HAPPY TO TELL YOU!! (SOME PEOPLE DO MAKE YOU LAUGH, FOR ITEMS I BUY I ONLY NORMALLY GET CONCERNED AFTER A COUPLE OF WEEKS AND EVEN AFTER THAT THEN ONLY POLIETELY ENQUIRE IF AND WHEN THE ITEM WAS SENT).

                                   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

PAYMENTS BY PAYPAL ARE PREFERRED BUT I ALSO ACCEPT OTHER METHODS. I ALSO POST WORLDWIDE (PLS APPLY FOR RATES) BUT DUE TO A PROBLEM WITH A DISREPUTABLE BUYER IN JAPAN (PIGGIESSS - I AM HAPPY TO NAME THEM) , FOR ALL PAYMENTS MADE VIA PAYPAL THE ITEM WILL ONLY BE SENT BOTH TO THE UK AND WORLDWIDE BY RECORDED OR INTERNATIONAL SIGNED FOR DELIVERY. THIS IS TO ELIMINATE THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY ATTEMPT TO CLAIM BACK THE PAYMENT VIA PAYPAL EVEN AFTER ACTUALLY HAVING RECEIVED THE ITEM.

THIS OBVIOUSLY HAS HAD THE RESULT OF INCREASING MY COSTS FOR POSTING AND PACKING AND I AM VERY SORRY FOR THIS BUT PAYPAL OFFER NO PROTECTION FOR SELLERS UNLESS THERE IS PROOF OF DELIVERY!! PROOF OF POSTING WOULD SEEM INSUFFICIENT TO THEM AND I HAVE FOUND THIS OUT THE HARD WAY..

DUE TO THE BEHAVIOUR OF THIS SAME BUYER PAYPAL PAYMENTS WILL ALSO NOT BE ACCEPTED FROM BUYERS WHO DO NOT ALLOW THEIR FEEDBACK TO READ, SO IF YOU FALL INTO THIS CATEGORY PLEASE DO NOT BID ON MY ITEMS UNLESS YOU CAN PAY BY ANOTHER METHOD…….EUROPE INTERNATIONAL SIGNED FOR MAIL COSTS ARE USUALLY GBP 8.99 FOR A SINGLE LP AND FOR USA/REST OF WORLD IT IS USUALLY GBP 12.99 FOR A SINGLE AND GBP 15.99 FOR A DOUBLE
