I found this in my old packaging box!! It's all new & Unplayed but bundle has been packaged in original mailer since purchase, leaving indentations from being pressed together for 9 years!

I don't know if the label ever did a repress of the mispress vinyl but this is the intital pre-order which was pressed incorrectly and features 'Why Do You Do It? (Le Mouv Session)' on the B-side, rather than 'There Is A Light That Never Goes Out', as stated on the label and sleeve.

Quote from Liam Fray about the mispress:

"Evening All.
I take it you're as much in a state of disarray as I am with the charts. Well, we can but try. Buy take Over The World. Help stop the rot. Its up to you.
I put my heart, my soul and my life into everything The Courteeners have ever released. And I continue to do so.
I send back artwork, 20, sometimes 30 times because the font is the "wrong shade of cream".
So it is with a very upset head that I get the news that some fucking idiot has messed up the vinyls.
All I can say is I'm sorry. I believe you will all be sent an MP3 with "There Is A Light" on.
I am in talks with the label to produce an extremely limited 7" of the above song.
If this is produced, every single person who ordered the bundle will receive one.
This will hopefully come to fruition and if they have any sort of fucking babckbone, they will make this happen.
On a lighter note, looking forward to seeing you in Europe, you're in a for a treat.
Take care. Big Love."

I never got an mp3 and the one-off vinyl with the missing track didn't happen!

I have dug out the RARE CD promo to add to the bundle, it has the great instrumental version.

PAYMENT

Payment by PAYPAL only.

 

POSTAGE & DELIVERY

Items in the UK are only sent by tracked services to ensure proof of delivery.
I charge the actual cost of postage and packaging - I do not profit from this.
To reduce P&P costs, I will try and reuse any packaging/cardboard that will create appropriate and superb protection to avoid damage.

All items are usually dispatched within 3 days of receiving payment.


GRADING THE CONDITION

I use an Industry Standard Grading System called the ‘Record Collectors Grading System’. The following explains what each grade means:

*I also add PLUS if it's a little better than the standard description.

MINT (M)
The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records marked as Sealed or Un-played should be Mint.

EXCELLENT (EX)
The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD (VG)
The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects is acceptable

GOOD (G)
The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.

FAIR(F)
The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

POOR (P)
The record will not play properly due to scratched, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing

BAD (B)
The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler


CD’s and CASSETTES
As a general rule CD’s and Cassettes either play perfectly – in which case they are in Mint condition – or they don’t, in which case their value is minimal.
Cassette tape is liable to deteriorate with age, even if it remains un-played, so care should be taken when buying old tapes.
CD’s are difficult to grade visually; they can look perfect but actually be faulty, while in other cases they may appear damaged but still play perfectly.
Cassette and CD inlays and booklets should be graded in the same way as record covers and sleeves.
In general, the plastic containers for cassettes and CDs can easily be replaces if they are broken or scratched, but card covers and digipaks are subject to the same wear as record sleeves.
