Parlophone Catalog Numbers: I Don't Believe In You:  12 R 6144 I Believe In You:  14 2028966

Yes, both of the 12"s together and no, I'm not crazy for doing this listing as the pair.   I was gonna put in the 12" of 'Give It Up' with them as a third piece, but that'll go on its own soon enough.
So what's wrong with these two then ?    As always, please see the photos.     Both vinyls are in very good shape.   As for the outer jackets:  One of my 'half-size' BPM stickers is on 'I Don't Believe In You' and both outer jackets have some wear.  Yes, I had both in the clubs for 'way down time', early and/or late.   I'm a big fan of Talk Talk, even when they went to the genre we ended up naming as 'Mope-Rock'.   Got to see them live 'back in the day when they were doing the club-beat-stuff.  Excellent live.

Mark David Hollis  ;  4 January 1955 - 25 February 2019   R.I.P.   One of the most distinctive voices in not only new wave, but music overall.   And yes, Life's What You Make It.

Anyway, I sincerely hope you - yes you, since you got this far reading - have been looking for these apparently pretty rare original specimens and give bidding a go.
Note:  These lil' darlin's will get some extra care in packing for shipment.   The jackets might not be mint, or near-mint, but the vinyl's up towards thataway and I actually do care.
And just for you-know-what's and giggles, I wasn't gonna buy 'I Don't Believe In You' - I got it for the 'B-Side', a remix of 'Happiness Is Easy'.   I really like that track.   So there ya go.    ;-)
If this is your first time seeing any of my listings, welcome !      I've more for you to read - the obligatory disclaimers and stuff like that there.

Here's the not-reduced-to-ultra-fine-print business part - that's on every listing I run up - so you can be sure nobody gets screwed over and I don't get taken to the cleaners by folks who would do so to get stuff for free, or worse, make a seller look bad for whatever reason (yes, it happens and that's sad).   I'll also never and I mean never ever notaneffingchance - I'll never engage a 'bid-bot' in the blind to run up an auction price.   That's about as lowlife as anyone can get in business and says a lot about them as a person.
I'm offering new wave and prog rock (and some other styles including a few titles of very early-in-the-game techno/rave) CD's and vinyl.
Most of what's offered will be set in at auction. Some items may start as low as $2.99. From time to time, items will be run up at a fixed price and without question, at time of listing will be the lowest price - period - and will keep checking to make sure that's the case.     I also have a few items left over from a small-ish concert sound system that will be listed at some point too.
You might notice I'm going a tad over the top with most descriptions and amount of photos on many listings.  That's solely so you know which end is up.  Not gonna hide anything.    Any missing artwork, pieces, parts, etc., and/or any real flaws on all items will be noted in plain language and sight in the description panel and of course, in the photos.
I was a nightclub DJ on LawnGuyLand NooYawk back when new wave was new and almost every new wave title I have - vinyl and CD - 95% of 'em - were "working" items.   I'll never ever offer for sale any item I wouldn't buy myself, I'd rather just give 'em away or toss 'em in a dumpster. Please see the photos on each new wave/club-use item listed, you'll understand. If CD jewel cases or inner sleeves on vinyl were replaced with new, that will be noted as well. More......
On most of the new wave CD's and vinyl, there's stickers with my hand-written notes (BPM, Artist/Title, version, etc.). It was easier to see that in a dark club/DJ booth than pulling the rekkid itself.    I make no apologies for doing the sticker thing - it helped.   I know I wasn't the only one doing this kind of sticker thing either.
No warranty expressed or implied on any item offered.   All sales final.   No returns.
Buyer is responsible for any sales taxes and/or VAT due.  Shipping not included in price, be it an auction or fixed price listing.
NewWaveAndProgRockDJ (meaning yours truly) absorbs the cost of cartons/packing material. It might not seem like much, but if you've never sold items before, the cost of padding material, packaging, new CD jewel cases and even carton sealing tape, that stuff adds up rather quickly.   Also, let's not kid ourselves:   Of course that cost is built into the opening bid price.   Momma dinna rayz no dummie. ;-)
As far as actual packing goes, I'm kinda sorta maybe pretty good at making sure your item(s) leave here with their seat belts properly fastened, seat in the upright position and tray-table secured to the seat in front. Tain't my first rodeo with ye olde shipping/receiving/logistics thing.
NewWaveAndProgRockDJ (again, meaning yours truly) is not responsible for any damage incurred by your items during shipping and transit to you via any carrier.
Re-sellers welcome. If you think my opening bid/fixed pricing makes me seem off my meds - meaning I'm way under what something should go for - please by all means grab it and go for it.    It's all good.
