Description
If my design looks familiar it's because I used to sell with the eBay username mikeharb83, but have had to abandon that account as I am no longer able to sell with it.
PLEASE READ FIRST!
Please be aware that I VISUALLY GRADE my records as I do not have access to a record player. I cannot guarantee that discs will be click, skip and noise free (although any marks that may cause such problems will be highlighted in the description).
All photos are of the actual item on sale. I do not use stock or 'borrowed' images.
THE BEATLES
Rubber Soul
Very Rare UK Stereo Pressing!
On offer here is a very hard to find original UK Stereo press of the Beatles legendary album Rubber Soul on the Parlophone yellow / black label!
Back in 1965 stereo was very much still a novelty format. Stereogram record players were still extremely expensive and the stereo copies of the albums cost more than mono and were usually not stocked by the record retailers, keeping them on an order-in only basis. Because of this, original stereo copies of the Beatles' earlier albums are very hard to find and are highly collectible!
Please check out large, detailed photos of this record at the bottom of this listing.
Title Rubber Soul Year of Release 1965 Catalogue Number PCS 3075 Label Yellow / Black Parlophone Tax Code on Disc KT Sleeve Manufacturer Garrod & Lofthouse Side 1 Matrix Number YEX 178-3 Side 2 Matrix Number YEX 179-3 Side 1 Stampers 1 / GD Side 2 Stampers 1 / H Sleeve Condition The sleeve is in VGIR/GOOD condition. The sleeve is holding up okay overall with your usual light creasing and wear and tear to the edges and corners. The sleeve would have been VG but there's an unfortunate split right down the right seam of the cover - it looks like a previous owner cut down it to make the record easier to remove from the gatefold cover. Inner Sleeve Condition - Inserts Condition - Disc Condition(VISUALLY GRADED) The disc is in VG+ condition. The disc has a clean, sharp shine to it but does have some light scuffing along with some slightly heavier looking scuffs - there's nothing serious or nasty looking, though. Label Condition The labels are in EX- condition. Both labels are clean and have some light spindlewear and a touch of whitening around the centrehole.
All records have been visually graded under a strong, 125W natural light desk lamp.
Records are posted out tracked and insured (where applicable) to comply with eBay and PayPal seller protection policy.
The P+P costs given on each auction are for that auction only. If you win more than one auction please wait until I've
sent you out an amended invoice to combine postage.
All LPs will be mailed out in a strong, corrugated cardboard LP mailing box with the LP outside the sleeve and extra
sheets of corrugated cardboard will be used where applicable.
My Vinyl Grading:
MINT No true preowned disc can be mint. The highest I will ever grade a disc is NM+/M- if it looks untouched and unplayed, but the MINT description will only be for records I personally know have never been played (i.e. I personally bought from new) or for copies that are still sealed. NEAR MINT (NM) For discs that look near flawless and which may have just the slightest, barely visible little whispy marks here and there. EXCELLENT (EX) For discs that still retain a brilliant, clean shine but does have some light scuffs here and there. VERY GOOD (VG) For discs that still look clean and have a nice shine to them, but do have a fair amount of light scuffmarks and/or some light scratches. GOOD (G) For discs that look like they have been loved and have a fair amount of scuffs and surface scratches. Not in terrible condition, but would look like it would play with a lot of crackle. FAIR (F) For discs that may have some life left in them but are pretty trashed with numerous surface scuffs and heavier scuffs and scratches etc POOR (P) For discs that are unplayable and look completely trashed. Discs like this would only ever be offered if they were insanely rare.
