Fish : Big Wedge / State Of Mind / Lady Let It Lie 3 x Picture Disc

Up for auction here is three heavyweight picture discs from the recently retired Fish!  Two limited editions are included.

They are all in superb condition with only some light markings on 'State Of Mind' and 'Lady Let It Lie'.  Just what you expect though seeing as they have been housed inside pvc sleeves, nothing serious.  It is a well known fact that picture discs do not play as well as standard vinyl and therefore should not be graded to the same standard.  They should be owned as 'collectables' rather than for their audio quality and in my opinion should not be played at all!  However, with these three I did play various extracts and I was very pleasantly surprised!

The clarity and depth of the audio is stunning and I really could not believe how well they played.  I played a number of sections on all three and there is very little background.  You would not know you were listening to picture discs if that's not too hard to believe!

Postage & Packaging

I will only send items items worldwide via tracked shipping.  This provides 'peace of mind' in case of loss or damage.  The shipping costs are shown below and combined shipping is always offered.  Any over-payment will always be refunded.

The Royal Mail only insure up to a value of £250 so if an item sells for more it may be wise to use a courier service (e.g. Parcelforce or DPD).  An extra insurance premium will be required but I will not know the exact amount until the final sale price is known.  Because of this I will sometimes have to estimate the cost and this will be shown in the listing.  Please wait for the invoice before making payment and if you have any questions please feel free to ask.  Many thanks.

All vinyls are packaged in strong over-sized custom made mailers with plenty of extra cardboard protection.  They are placed inside separate poly-lined inners outside the cover so as to avoid seam splits in transit and then placed inside a PVC sleeve to provide even more protection.  I pride myself on my high quality packaging as my feed confirms and if any customer has any specific requirements I am more than happy to help.

The mailers I use cost £1.00 each and I will use anything between 3-5 cardboard stiffeners which cost approx £0.18 each.  There is also the cost of the poly-lined inner and PVC sleeve to consider, it all adds up!  Not forgetting that eBay take 10% of the shipping fee also!!
