A Factory Sample Joy Division Rare Orig UK 2x7" 1978 EX

	£		116
	$		154

You are bidding on an 7".  A Factory Sample, excellent condition cover and vinyl.  The item will be well packaged in a record mailer with 2 stiffeners and sent immediately upon payment.  First Class recorded postage in the UK, 'International Signed For' to other destinations (see below).  I have tried to be as honest as I can about its condition but if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

This is the original 1978 Factory release NOT one of the reissues which seem to be being sold as originals.  The cover comes in a gatefold crinkly clear plastic sleeve which is still excellent for its age.  It still has the original unused stickers with the 'FasPrint' logo on the back proving their authenticity.  The vinyl is in excellent condition, very clean and hardly a wispy mark to be seen on any of the four sides (apart from side three has a small scratch on track two).  This is a really nice copy in excellent all round condition which is a must for any serious collector.

Please read all the descriptions and P&P charges before bidding.

I am selling other Factory/Joy Division records.  Save money with combined packaging (see P&P charges below).

Album Cover notes:
Front and back covers are still in excellent condition (crinkly effect).
Inside gatefold still in excellent condition (crinkly effect).
4 Stickers in excellent condition, unused.
No writing on cover or labels
No fraying on edges of cover

Vinyl notes:
I have played this record back in it's entirety at a reasonably loud volume on a pair of high end Sennheiser headphones to evaluate its condition.

In general the vinyl is in excellent condition.  It looks very clean with no surface marks (apart from a small scratch on track two of side three). Some light crackling in places.

I tend to be over critical of a records condition as it is not my intention to misrepresent what I am selling.  I want the buyer to feel what they have bought is as described although not everyones opinion of its condition will be the same as mine.

If you have any doubts or questions about this record, please ask me and I will try to be as helpful as I can.

About my auctions:
I have always been fanatical about music, so nearly all of my items for auction were bought on original release dates.  The records have always been treated with respect so in most cases they should playback without hardly any, if any audible surface noise.  If the starting price seems a bit excessive to some people its because I am reluctantly selling my vinyl, so if they are to be sold hopefully they are going to genuine fans of the music who will appreciate what they have bought (see my feedback).

About my P&P charges:
Believe it or not, I don't make any extra money on the delivery charges and in some cases I have even had to pay extra to send packages.  I buy decent record mailers and like to send everything by the safest postal service I can.  I send items how I would expect to receive them myself.
