ITEMS SHIPPED OUTSIDE OF THE USA ARE NEVER FREE OF SHIPPING CHARGES.

USED Vinyl Record SIZE: 12 INCH.

Signed by PETER HAMMILL of Van Der Graaf Generator fame.

It was signed after a solo performance at  the Troubadour a small club in West Hollywood, CA. I have completely forgotten what year, but some internet torrent hunting gives the year as 1978.

WHAT THIS IS: This is a USED record. It is NOT perfect. Maybe Acceptable or Great to you.

I DO NOT WANT TO SELL YOU A BAD RECORD! Yet it could happen. All records crackle & pop. Some less or more than others... I have seen records with surfaces that look ugly & sound flawless. I have seen/heard record surfaces that look NEW & they sound AWFUL & even SKIP. Covers might be worn in a way I missed in the description.

Did Seller listen to this record before offering on ebay?

ANSWER: Yes. Briefly. I heard some light crackles but overall it sounded much better than I expected.

BUYER: "Why didn't you FULLY listen to this record before you sold it to me????? That is dumb."

SELLER: I NEED TO SELL A LOT OF RECORDS right NOW, fast. It takes hours to listen to records & document the hidden faults. -- I'm out of time. FACT: The ONLY way to know if a record sounds good (or not) is sitting there, watching it, the needle, looking at meters & fiddling with knobs & listening carefully to the entire vinyl in Real Time. Completely undistracted. I did not have that time. Please ask me if you want me to go listen this to this one, before you bid or buy. I'd be glad to check it out for you & give you an update on this record if I can.

BUYER: "Too late for that, I paid good money & I don't like this at all."

SELLER: }}

BUYER: "Well no. I forgot for many days or weeks, but I am suddenly mad 3,7,14-90 days later after I got it."

SELLER: I still want to help you! EVERYTHING I CAN DO - TO MAKE YOU HAPPY & avoid a negative situation.

I can take returns ONLY from the USA. Refunds for overseas on case-by case basis.

NOTES:

SELLER Note: Records are HAIR/Particle energy magnets. I have cats. I will carefully clean as best as I can. Records I have cleaned in OVER 40 YEARS + have always sounded & looked worse off, years later. I will use an air-cleaner or clean cloth before I send it. But I assure you, a cat-hair will get through.
