There's a lady who's sure, all that glitters is gold, 

and she's buying a stairway to heaven................

                           A LOVELY PLAYING EXAMPLE OF A PLUM/RED PRESSING..

THIS ALBUM WAS RELEASED IN NOVEMBER 1971 AND EARLY IN 1972 ATLANTIC SWITCHED DISTRIBUTION FROM POLYDOR TO KINNEY/WARNERS AND THE LABELS CHANGED AGAIN FROM PLUM RED TO GREEN ORANGE

 ALL PLUM/RED ATLANTIC VERSIONS OF THIS LP ARE THE MOST SORT AFTER OF ALL THE ZEP LP'S AS THEY WERE AVAILABLE IN THE PLUM RED COLOUR FOR THE SHORTEST PERIOD OF TIME,

FOR AUCTION IS THE UK LP LED ZEPPLIN IV ALSO KNOW AS "SYMBOLS"

LABEL: ATLANTIC RED PLUM

DATE : 1971

WEIGHT: 125g

CONDITION......

SLEEVE: VERY SMART EXAMPLE FOR AN UNLAMITED GATEFOLD SLEEVE, ONLY VERY MINOR EDGE AND SPINE WARE, NO SPLITS OR WRITINGS GRADES VG PLUS TO EX MINUS

VINYL VISUAL : LOVELY GRADES EXCELLENT- AT WORST, JUST SOME WHISPY HAIRLINES MOSTLY ONLY UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT

VINYL PLAY : LOVELY PLAYER, EVEN IN THE QUIETEST PARTS PLAY GRADE EXCELLENT THERE IS JUST A HINT OF A WARP (IT REALLY IS JUST A HINT MIND)POSSIBLY BECAUSE THE VINYL ISN'T VERY HEAVY (POLYDOR WERE NOT THAT GREAT WHEN IT CAME TO VINYL WEIGHT) BUT IT DOES NOT AFFECT PLAY AT ALL ON MY SYSTEM AND I HAVE A VERY LIGHT PICK UP AND IT PLAYED THROUGH AS EXCELLENT, THE QUIET PARTS ARE QUIET AND STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN IS A JOY!

LABELS: MINOR SPINDLE TRACES  ONLY WOULD GRADE EXCELLENT PLUS BUT ONE OR TWO OF THE TRACK NUMBERS ARE CIRCLED YET IT'S SO SMALL IT'S HARD TO EVEN NOTICE, I DIDN'T.

INNER: I HAVE NOT SEEN A SINGLE ONE OF THESE FLIMSY FLIPBACK INNERS THAT HASN'T SPLIT AND THIS IS NO EXCEPTION, HOWEVER AS YOU CAN SEE THERE ARE NO TAPE REPAIRS AND IT REMAINS VERY SMART INDEED, AGAIN VG+ TO EX-

A VERY SORT AFTER ZEP RARITY AND IN VERY NICE ORDER, NOT THE USUAL TRASHED COPY AT ALL - GOOD LUCK TO ALL BIDDERS!!

(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 LP
