LESTER STERLING
Bangarang (Variant)
PAMA ECONOMY ECOLP5 Mono 1st Pressing
White Label
VINTAGE 33RPM VINYL LP
Michael’s (possibly pre-internet notes) say: ‘Lester Sterling. ECO LP 5. Different order/tracks to SECO15 ‘BangARang’
One of the labels says “4th on side B is UN531B’
CONDITION just VG+ mainly plays better
Vinyl is bright and clean with a couple of light marks and a few skids. Plays well in the main - A1 has background crackles throughout and B2 has noticeable pops - no skips or jumps. Labels are blank with writing on B. Matrix stamped. Sleeve is plain - it says SECO12 on it but this may be irrelevant. See photos.
ABOUT THIS RECORD
This record comes from the collection of the late Michael de Koningh - reggae historian, regular contributor to Record Collector magazine, and co-author of “Young, Gifted and Black - The Story of Trojan Records” and “Tighten Up - The History of Reggae in the UK”.
*** GRADING ***
I grade visually under a daylight lamp so my grading may be harsher than some and I listen to samples of the record through headphones, picking up light background crackles that may not be obvious through speakers. I use an excellent vintage DJ turntable and stylus and a slight weight on the arm.
My gradings are from M-Mint to G-Good. I rarely grade M unless the item is sealed.
*** COMBINED POSTAGE ***
I invoice on Monday evenings and will combine postage for multiple items. If you’d like to pay sooner, just request an invoice and I will alter the postage costs for you.
NOTE: I am having a few random technical issues that are preventing me from combining invoices in some cases.
***POSTAGE AND PACKING***
Please pay within 3 days of the end of the auction or let me know if you are bidding on another item.
I aim to send your item to you within 3 working days of payment. Sometimes circumstances prevent this, but I will try to let you know.
Ebay Simple Postage tends to dictate postage costs nowadays. If I have a choice I use Tracked or International Tracked and Signed. I don’t send items without tracking.
I use professional packaging and board stiffeners for protection. I separate disc from cover for LPs/picture sleeves. I tape your item up well to avoid split seams on packaging so please open your package with extreme care.
*** RETURNS ***
Please do read the full description, including grading notes. If I have missed anything or not accurately described an item, please do get in touch with me.
I do not do partial refunds for new customers. I offer a full refund after discussion and upon return of the item, if unhappy.
***CUSTOMS CHARGES***
I have to enter the value of the item when buying postage, for tracking and insurance purposes. This value automatically transfers to the customs declaration. Please consider customs charges prior to bidding.
