SHIPPING IS NOT $4 FOR THE US - IT'S $12 FOR EVERYONE, REGARDLESS COUNTRY (Up to 5 records). REGISTERED / SIGNED-FOR MAIL ONLY.
Edwin Starr – “Stop her on sight” / “I have faith in you”, Swedish / Norwegian Tamla Motown, 1969 (unique mix of “Stop her on sight” only released in Scandinavia).
Record: top EX (very clean with light whiskers and hairlines – looks hardly played, but rather coming from light sleeve rubbing / storage – check the label scan for the super clean labels)
PS: visual top EX (very clean – has a small whole top mid, very small surface tear at T in Tamla logo top left, small surface tear at Edwin’s ear and a tiny one behind the ear. Otherwise a super condition sleeve)
The Swedish sleeve is rare, but this unknown-to-exist (?) Norwegian PS is a one in a million find. This has easily got to be one of the rarest Motown 45rpm PS-releases in Europe. Same record as the Swedish release (unique mix, with more echo/reverb and more prominent percussion, brass etc.), but with a much! much! nicer sleeve than the one that came in Sweden. This is the only copy I’ve ever seen and didn’t even know it existed until last summer, when I found it in Sweden. I’ve asked my friend seller and soul marvel Pushkings, who recently sold a Swedish record without sleeve and no centre and he’s never seen this one. A beauty of an occasion – don’t sleep. Considering Pushking's recent copy sold for 293 USD and this has both centre and a sleeve I think the opening price is quite reasonable.

Grading: All records are graded visually under halogen (very strong) light. All records listed should play well regardless visual condition, but please check the sound files as there might be something I have missed or something that disturbs you more than me. Grades used are: M- (my highest grade - perfect or near perfect) / EX+ (just a tad below M-) / EX (light superficial wear) / VG+ (medium amount of superficial wear, as well as the odd light scratch, but plays well) / VG (can have quite a lot of superficial wear and lighter scratches, but should still play well) / VG- (a lot of wear and scratches - if listed it either plays well or it's a rare collectors piece regardless condition). Grading is strict and made on the basis that it would be the kind of record I'd like to receive when buying (from a collectors point of view) rather than RC or Goldmine standards.
Soundfiles are taken from the actual record for sale - sound is better in real life, in 99% of the cases. I use a Rega P3 with Audio Technica arm and a Goldring 2200 needle. It is much more fragile/receptive than a Technics.
Shipping: All records are sent as registered/signed for mail. The are sent well packed in new cardboard fold-around mailers. Same price regardless how many you buy. 12 USD / 7.50 GBP. The actual prise (what I pay) for Europe is 8.50 Euros, Rest of the world is 11 Euros. Records are sent from Italy or Sweden, depending on where I am when payment is receive.
Payment: PayPal or bank transfer.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions whatsoever.
