CONDITION: VINYL NEAR MINT I'm trying to find fault here, but the heavyweight vinyl is clean and bright and looks almost unplayed. The sound reproduction is STUNNINGLY clear and superb on both sides. A FANTASTIC COPY!

DIE-CUT SLEEVE EXCELLENT+ Let's start off with the only negatives: there is a minor price sticker blemish in the top righthand corner of the front cover which causes a small crease on the back cover, and there is a little residue from some removed tape in the top corners of the back cover (please see the photos below for close ups). Other than a little rubbing to the corners, this is a beautiful copy of this unlaminated fold-out die-cut sleeve. The opening edges are crisp, the spine lettering is complete and legible, and there are are no folds, tears, seam splits or writing. The two fold-out sections are absolutely pristine.

LABELS NEAR MINT The black and white paper swirl labels are both clean and complete with bright original colours and clear black printing. There are a handful of light spindle lines.

INNER SLEEVE EXCELLENT+ The polylined white paper Vertigo inner sleeve is clean and complete with a little typical light discolouration and creasing but no folds, tears, stains, seam splits or writing. The record will be despatched in an additional new polylined inner sleeve.

ABOUT THIS ITEM:

All vinyl is strictly graded using the Record Collector RRPG system.

All photographs are of the actual item listed above: I never use 'stock' pictures or re-use old photos of previously sold items.

This item is listed with NO RESERVE for 10 days, running from Thursday evening to Sunday evening the following week. If you wish to ask a question, or leave a message, please try to do so before the final Sunday as I will not be in front of my laptop on my day off.

THERE IS NO 'BUY IT NOW' PRICE. I always let my auctions run their full course, so please do not contact me asking if this item can be sold early. Live a little, enjoy the giddy thrill of bidding.

BIDDERS WITH ZERO (0) FEEDBACK: We all need to start somewhere but, due to an unacceptably high proportion of U.S. non-payers, I would ask all zero feedback potential buyers to EMAIL ME BEFORE BIDDING. Any bids received from zero feedback buyers who have not contacted me prior to bidding will be immediately deleted.

If you are the sucessful bidder, PLEASE WAIT FOR ME TO INVOICE YOU BEFORE YOU MAKE YOUR PAYMENT, especially if you have bought more than one item - you will be entitled to a postage discount for multiple purchases.

If you do win this item, PLEASE MAKE YOUR PAYMENT WITHIN 2 DAYS of receiving your invoice. If you are unable to pay within 48 hours then please contact me as soon as possible after the auction has finished - communication is everything.

PAYMENT WILL ONLY BE ACCEPTED IN UK STERLING. Whilst PayPal is my preferred method of payment, I am happy to accept UK personal cheques (but only with bank guarantee card details written on the back), sterling Postal or Money Orders, and most international credit or debit cards. I cannot accept cash payments unless they are offered in person upon collection or delivery.

All items will be posted within 48 hours of full payment being received or cleared - in practice, most are despatched on the same day.

POSTAGE & PACKING DETAILS:

All records will be removed from their outer sleeves, and then placed in a polythene sleeve, before being carefully packed WITH TWO CARDBOARD STIFFENERS and posted in strong new Covers 33 mailers (although I do try to re-use good quality heavyweight packaging whenever practical). Please try to recycle the packing cardboard if possible - it might just help to offset the damage done when it was originally manufactured. Alternatively, throw it away and set fire to a couple of old tyres.

Certificates of Posting are obtained for all packets despatched, without exception.

I CAN ACCEPT NO LIABILITY FOR ANY ITEMS THAT MAY BE LOST OR DAMAGED IN THE POST

I always strongly recommend that you select the insured option for postage irrespective of the value of the contents. Naturally, I will happily provide buyers with any necessary paperwork in the event of them having to make a claim against Royal Mail, but if you do not select the insured option, and your parcel is damaged or goes missing in the post, then you will not be entitled to any compensation, it's that simple.

NO EXCEPTIONS!

Please do not ask me to send expensive items by the cheapest service available as I will not do so. Bitter experience has taught me that it is a nightmare to resolve to everyone's satisfaction if the postal service lets us down.

ABOUT ME:

If you haven't done business with me before my name is ANDY HIBBERD and I own a "bricks and mortar" record shop called 101 COLLECTORS RECORDS in Farnham, Surrey, about an hour out of central London.

I deal in old and collectable records, CDs, DVDs and music memorabilia in most genres, as well as new vinyl and CD releases and re-issues. 95% of my business is done in the shop, with my eBay sales offering just a, hopefully tantalising, taste of my overall stock. Please feel free to get in touch if you need any further information about this item, if you have any questions about what's currently in stock, or if you need any advice about selling a collection.

I am always happy to receive your Wants Lists, but I sometimes file them carefully under bits of paper, which are in turn under slightly larger pieces of paper, that aren't always where I thought I had left them. This could be blamed on incompetence on my part, but I prefer to blame it on the pixies that clearly infest my shop and move things about after I have gone home, the little bastards. However, I will do my very best to find what you want a) immediately, b) the day after you have found it elsewhere, or c) about a year after you have quite frankly lost the will to live.

That said, I do appreciate your interest in this listing, especially during these troubled times. If you are thinking of bidding, please make sure that you have read the description and P&P costs carefully, and take the time to look at my Returns Policy. Also, please check out my Feedback comments and past sales - I am not an anonymous internet seller but a responsible (pixies permitting) and contactable UK record dealer. You can bid with confidence.

Thank you.

Andy 

GOOD LUCK AND GOOD BIDDING.
