Description

Prince Buster

Vagabond b/w Come Get Me.

BlueBeat BB 402, 1967

Shaking Up On Orange Street b/w Black Girl.

Fab FAB 10, 1967

 

We’re having a bit of a clearout of stuff at home so I’ve put my usual eBay sales of art and ephemera mostly to one side for a couple of weeks. I’ve got a large personal collection of vinyl, lots of which I don’t play any more, so one of the things we will be selling is records. This week I’m listing a small number of reggae and ska records.

 

There are two Prince Buster singles here. Both are original issues of tracks that are very difficult to find now, especially Vagabond which is vanishingly rare.

 

There is however, a drawback, as you would expect, since I am offering both these records together one lot. Both are in pretty poor condition. Vagabond is heavily scratched on both sides, has a push-in centre and a label that has been written on both sides. Shaking Up On Orange Street is also in disappointing condition. It is has lighter scratches to the playing surface but lots and lots of them.

 

On the plus side, both records play all the way through on both sides on my deck although they are of course very crackly. I am offering them here, mainly because I know that there are plenty of record collectors who would rather have a poor copy of a very rare record than none at all. Examples like this are effectively place-holders in a collection until a better example turns up.

 

I therefore offer them entirely on this basis. Please don’t convince yourself that they might be better than I have described.  Expect the worst and you won’t be disappointed. These will definitely look better in your record box than they will sound on your record deck.

UK Postage and packing:  £2.00

 

International postage and packing:  Postage charges to international destinations are given below.

 

All postage prices quoted (UK and international) are maximum charges.  If postage and packing costs less than these estimates, I will refund the difference after posting (subject to the difference being £1.00 or more. Unless otherwise indicated, the postage prices I give in the listing are for a tracked and signed-for service, as required by eBay. If however, winning buyers would prefer cheaper options, I am always happy to help with that if I can. Please contact me for a quote.

 

I hope this description has given you enough to go on but should you require any further information, or more images, please do e-mail.  Please also look carefully at the hi-res photos – they are part of the description.  Thanks for your interest in this auction and good luck if you decide to bid.

 

 

Please note:  I will not respond to requests to close the auction early regardless of the value of the offer made.  Ending early is contrary to both the principle and spirit of an auction. It is also unfair to other eBayers who may be watching the auction intending to bid at a later time.
