MINOR THREAT Minor Threat - Dischord 1984 UK 1st Issue LP Blue £2.50 Slv +Insert

	£		60
	$		79

Very first UK issue of this classic album, which brings together the band's two EPs from 1981. Has been reissued many times over the years but this version is the one you'll want! Ian MacKaye went on to from Fugazi (among other projects) while bass player/guitarist Brian Baker would appear in a host of seminal punk bands including Government Issue, Dag Nasty and Bad Religion. If US punk/hardcore/straight edge is your thing, this record is a 'must have' for your collection.

PLEASE NOTE THAT I AM AWAY UNTIL MONDAY 3RD, SO EARLIEST POST DATE IS TUESDAY 4TH JULY. 

CONDITION The cover is VG with some generally minor signs of age; a very small amount of corner rubbing and shelfwear, a few very small lines/crinkles by outer edges, small and gentle ripple (NOT bend!) to rear (bottom left), small thumb/handling ripple by side opening (by HR of word Threat) and very slight storage record-shaped impression. To the front only there are half a dozen small score marks/impressions (roughly ... just to right of R in Minor, by right foot as we look, by bottom of bowed head, by cuff of right sleeve as we look, and two roughly vertically below that). I have taken a picture under a window so hopefully this can be clearly seen. Overall nothing major at all and still VG for an almost 40 year old cover. The insert has some small and minor handling signs dotted about but again, nothing major at all. Viewed under a bright halogen bulb, the record is visually VG+ with a few very light and hairline surface marks dotted about, also a few very light, pale storage/pressing 'spots' (or whatever you call them!) - these are so light that they appear and disappear as you tilt the record and are on the very top surface of the record only ... play is NOT affected!

UK and overseas buyers - please note that due to the rarity of this item, I will only send fully tracked and insured within the UK and either by Tracked & Signed For service or by eBay's Global Shipping Programme overseas - also note that any fees which may be charged by ebay are imposed by them entirely and any customs fees/import duties or taxes are down to the laws of your country, not me, and are to be paid by the buyer - I have no say or influence as to how much any further costs, if any, may be and will not mark as a 'gift' or put a lower price on the customs declaration, sorry! If in any doubt, please investigate if there will be any further costs to you BEFORE bidding.

Please see all pictures above and if you have any questions or need any more info., don't hesitate to get in touch. 

Cover and labels are as seen in the pictures above (actual item shown) - see below for record grading, which obviously applies to records which have been played ONLY!

Please note that all vinyl is visually graded under a bright halogen bulb - it is only play-graded if specifically stated.

POSTAGE AND PACKING

UK - £4.95 by Royal Mail Tracked 48 with Signature or £5.95 by Royal Mail Tracked 24 with Signature.
ELSEWHERE - please select the 'Postage & Payments' tab, then choose your country from the drop-down menu and click on 'get rates'. Note that quoted prices are for STANDARD/UNREGISTERED/UNTRACKED services - please ask for a quote for tracked services BEFORE paying - thanks. 

VINYL GRADING

NEW: note that still sealed items will be presumed to be in 'new' condition, but are obviously sold as seen. Any visible signs of wear/storage etc. beneath the shrinkwrap will be mentioned.

MINT: note please note that I will NEVER use the 'MINT' grade, as I think you are asking for trouble! The highest grade for an item that is not new will use will be NM (Near Mint).

NEAR MINT (NM): The record itself is in very close to 'as new' condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in almost perfect condition.

EXCELLENT (EX): The record shows signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD (VG): The record has obviously been played a number of times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and maybe some occasional light scratches. If there is any surface noise it will be occasional, light and unobtrusive. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD (G): The record has obviously been played a lot and while it still plays through OK, it will have a lot of surface marks and/or light scratches (maybe also the occasional 'feelable' scratch) and most likely there there will be regular and noticeable surface noise. The cover and contents may suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine and/or seam splits, discoloration, etc.  

TERMS & CONDITIONS

*Important* - the ONLY countries I will send to by uninsured mail are as follows: - 

• UK.
• Europe (EU countries ONLY and Norway).
• USA and Canada.
• Australia, New Zealand and Japan.

If you live anywhere else then your parcel MUST be insured, the cost of which is to be covered by the buyer. Very sorry, but NO EXCEPTIONS to this rule.

If you live in a country that I am prepared to send by regular, uninsured mail please bear in mind that I always get a receipt and proof of posting for every item sent, but THERE WILL NOT BE A TRACKING NUMBER UNLESS YOU HAVE PAID FOR INSURED/TRACKED MAIL. Should an item take longer than expected to arrive, I will do everything I can to help, but please don't assume that there is a tracking number! Most overseas buyers seem to assume this, for some reason! If you want the item to be tracked, please choose the 'International Signed For' option at checkout - thanks!

Finally, please note that if your item (or if the combined values of the items in a single parcel) is £20.00 or above, then insurance is compulsory wherever you live. This is an extra £1.10 for 'Signed For' in the UK (up to the value of £50, after which extra cover will need to be paid for by the buyer) or an extra £5.30 for overseas buyers to cover 'International Signed For'.
