During five years of trading on ebay, I have received around 1200 positive feedbacks from over 900 individual customers, almost all from the sale of vinyl records.

I take great pride in ensuring that my records are always described accurately and fairly. All my items come with a money-back guarantee - if it's not as described, you can return it for a full refund.

UK bidders please note. P&P is NOT free. This item weighs over 1.5Kg when packed and will be sent fully insured. Costs appear at the bottom of the listing. Thank you.

This is a lovely original copy of the Let it Be box set complete with 1st press vinyl and original Get Back book.

The record has the red apple logo on the back cover and 2U/2U matrixes.

Detailed description
Box outer sleeve: This is the original Garrod and Lofthouse outer sleeve made in Great Britain and is nice and clean with very light signs of use. There are just slight signs of wear to the edges and corners and a bit of laminate lift near the bottom, which can be seen in the photos and some slight laminate flaking along that edge. But that is all. Everything else is sound and intact - this is one of the best-preserved examples of the outer sleeve that I have seen and it is completely genuine and free from any repairs or touch-ups. Unlike most copies it has retained its shape and shows no signs of crushing or flattening - it sits nice and square even when the inside trays are removed.

Box outer and inner trays: These are replacement trays in near mint condition as they are a new with just a few fingerprints.

Get Back book: The original book is nice and clean with no damage, writing, splits, tears or stickers etc although it shows signs of having been handled and read. There is slight wear and curling to the edges and corners and a small crease in one corner of the back cover. The spine is straight and all the pages are fully complete and intact. There are no loose or missing pages and no damage or writing etc.

Sleeve: The sleeve shows typical signs of use. There are oxbow creases on either side of the opening from when the record has been removed and returned and some creases at the corners and edges and a little ring wear in the lamination.
Edge wear: There is wear to the edges and opening but no splits apart from a small section at the bottom opening corner which has been neatly repaired and is hardly noticeable.
Corner wear: There is moderate wear at the corners.
Vinyl: The vinyl has various signs of age and use with a number of fine lines, scuffs and marks on either side as well as a few fine scratches. There is a long scratch on side one which can be seen but not felt. I have played side one and it plays through fine with no jumps, skips or sticking. There is just surface noise/crackle in the quiet bits and a few places where you get a repetitive click for a few revolutions but nothing too loud or intrusive. (If you are looking for a near mint copy then this one isn't for you, but please see my other 'Let It Be' auction, running at the same time as this one).
Labels: Both labels look great with absolutely no signs of damage, writing, stickers etc, just typical spindle marking.
Inner sleeve: Plain

Detracting features not covered above - none.

Information about descriptions.
My records are always described accurately and fairly. I always do my best to point out any blemishes which might detract from the item and all photographs are of the actual item you will get.

Visually-graded vinyl: Unless stated in the listing, vinyl is visually graded. I play grade records where possible but I don't have time to play them all, so I usually restrict play grades to collectors' items and rare records. A visual grading will identify physical flaws (such as scratches) and will determine whether a record has been cared-for properly, but it will not detect noise or crackle caused by non-visible sources. Most of the records I sell are between thirty and fifty years old and so it is likely that there may be some background noise even if they look perfect.

Play-graded vinyl: I will always state in the listing if I have played a record prior to describing it. When I play a record I listen to it carefully through headphones, taking notes of any noise, clicks, distortion etc and play it all the way through (unless stated otherwise). I have two record decks and one is more sensitive than the other to any physical flaws on the record surface. Records are always played on the sensitive deck first and the notes for the audio performance are taken from that deck. If this play-through detects any jumps or sticks those sections of the disk will be re-played on the less-sensitive deck to see whether they happen on that too.

First pressings and originals: Many of the records I sell are first pressings and, if this is the case, I will usually identify them as such and may include the relevant matrix information etc in the description. However, sometimes I cannot be certain whether a record is a first pressing or not. In these instances I will often use the word 'original' to identify a pressing which I think might be a first pressing, but do not know for sure (but which is certainly NOT a recent pressing or audiophile release etc). If you specifically want a first pressing, and know how to identify it, please ask the relevant questions before you bid.

Feel free to ask any questions about the item (but please don’t leave it to the last minute as I may not get a chance to reply).

POSTAGE & PACKING

I care about the records I sell and believe that they need to be carefully and securely packaged to ensure that they survive their journey through the post. Vinyl is removed from the sleeve for posting and the contents will be protected with rigid cardboard stiffeners. All packages are labelled "Do not bend" and securely sealed with "FRAGILE" parcel tape.

I send my records in high-quality, purpose-made packaging. I support the use of recycled materials and so occasionally I may send records in packaging which has been previously used or which has been made from other cardboard packaging. If you wish your item to be sent in entirely new packaging please let me know before paying for it. Thanks.

******************************************

This item weighs over 1.5Kg when packed and will only be sent fully insured. It does not qualify for my usual multiple item postage discounts. Thank you.
