THE SPECIAL A.K.A. too much too young (UK TwoTone CHS TT-7)1980 first press paper 

more details to follow very shortly

Please check my feedback to give you confidence to purchase.

 

Please note unless stated: All label scans and sound clips added to my listings are taken directly from the copy offered up for auction.

Basic Postage: UK first class large letter £1.50p; Europe air mail small packet £3.50p; Rest of the World air mail small packet £5.00p.

Payment through Paypal is just fine and dandy and the only method of payment I will accept for overseas buyers.

I always combine postage for multiple purchases but please wait for an invoice from me first. 

All records are well packed with care and obsessive attention and generally posted within 2 days of payment received.

Where ever possible I always try to re-use packing materials to save my costs, your costs, to save waste and more importantly to reduce land fill.

I try and grade all records as accurately as my eyes and ears will allow.

But bear in mind I’m human just like you, so if you think I’ve made a mistake, get in touch straight away and a solution will be found.

 

Returns are happily accepted if there's an error on my part with grading. But please contact me first to discuss.

 

I generally wait to leave my feedback until after the buyer has left theirs.

 

Proof of postage is obtained for every item to aid tracking, recovery and compensation in the rare event of damage or loss whilst in the care of the Post Office. 

 

Please check my other records for sale if time and inclination permits.

 

Onwards,


Derek

One of the reasons the first press paper labels are so desirable and much more collectable when compared to the more common plain silver plastic releases is simply because they were pressed in much smaller numbers which consequently makes them much harder to find. 

Besides the paper labels look so much better don’t they?

A quick look at the completed listings for this title and the current ones will tell you just how few paper label copies come up for sale.
