  CONDITION: VINYL NEAR MINT- The record looks and sounds as if it has hardly ever been played. The vinyl is beautifully clean and bright and is virtually pristine apart from a few very light scuff marks. The sound reproduction throughout is fantastic. LABELS EXCELLENT- The black and white paper swirl labels would have graded as NEAR MINT but for a name neatly handwritten in blue Biro on Side B; otherwise they retain their clean original whiteness. A strong light shows up just a few minute spindle marks. The black printing is bright, clear and clean. INNER SLEEVE EXCELLENT The original Vertigo swirl polylined paper inner bag has discoloured slightly along its lower edge, but has very little creasing and no splits, tears or writing. SLEEVE EXCELLENT+++ The original textured unlaminated triple fold-out sleeve is in beautiful condition. All of the six panels are clean and complete, and despite some inevitable light creasing and rubbing to the soft edges and corners, there are NO splits along the numerous spines. The fold-out shaped inner sections are as crisp and defined as the day they were made. The only blemish of any note is a small unobtrusive 6mm tear along the top edge of the front cover panel whichout which you could have argued for a NEAR MINT- grading. There are NO folds, NO stains, NO writing, and NO ringwear! AMAZING!

IT'S A PERK OF THE JOB TO FIND THESE WONDERFUL RECORDS IN THE FIRST PLACE, BUT TO FIND ONE IN THIS KIND OF FANTASTIC CONDITION IS A REAL BONUS!         

ABOUT ME: If you haven't done business with me before my name is Andy Hibberd and I own a "bricks and mortar" secondhand record shop called 101 COLLECTORS RECORDS in Farnham, Surrey, about one hour out of central London. I deal in old and collectable vinyl, CDs, DVDs and memorabilia in all musical genres, as well as new releases and re-issues. Please feel free to get in touch if you need any further information about this item, if you have any questions about what's currently in stock, or if you have a collection for sale and need some advice.

All photographs are of the actual item offered for sale: I never use 'stock' pictures or re-use old photos of previously sold stock.

All items are listed for 10 days, running from Thursdays to Sundays. If you wish to leave a message, or ask a question, please try to do so before the last Sunday as I try not to be sitting in front of my laptop on my day off. Also, I always let my auctions run their full course, so please do not contact me asking if the item can be sold early. Live a little, enjoy the thrill of bidding.

Payment may only be made in UK £ Sterling: I accept PayPal, UK personal cheques (with bank guarantee card details) and most credit/debit cards. I cannot accept cash payments unless they are offered in person upon collection or delivery. 

I am always happy to receive any wants-lists, but file them carefully on little bits of paper under slightly larger bits of paper that aren't always quite where they should be. I will guarantee to find what you want within minutes of you a) finding it elsewhere, b) deciding you can live without Venezuelan Death Metal after all, or c) losing the will to live.

Despite that, all my vinyl is strictly graded using the Record Collector RRPG system, and all goods are properly protected and posted in strong, new Covers 33 packaging. Please recycle the packing cardboard if possible - it might just offset the damage done when the item was originally manufactured. Alternatively, throw it away and set fire to a couple of tyres.

If you are bidding, please read all descriptions fully and take the time to read my Postage and Packaging costs as well as my Returns Policy. Items selling for under £34 will be posted Royal Mail First Class in the UK, or by Airmail (Small Packets) to destinations abroad. Items selling for £34 or above will only be posted by the Special Delivery Next Day service in the UK, which will include insurance. For similarily priced items selling to customers abroad I only use the International Signed For service, which will also include insurance equal to the selling price. Certificates of Posting are obtained for all dispatched items without exception.

Please read my Feedback comments and look at my past sales: I am not an anonymous internet seller but a responsible and contactable UK record dealer. You can bid with confidence.
