Description
(CBS Records 202234 UK 7" 1966)
This is a UK 1st pressing 7" Single. It has orange "CBS" labels which have a 4 pronged centre. The record has 1st press -1/ -1 matrix stampers. It comes complete with its original CBS company paper sleeve.
Two great mid 1960's Northern Soul/ Mod Dancer tracks. Both tracks are available to hear on Youtube if you are unfamiliar with them. They are both well worth checking out. However, I think the B-side is the slightly better track. An obscure mid 1960's UK single. It sold poorly at the time. I have some other UK original 1960's Northern Soul/ Mod Dancer 7" Singles for sale. Please see my other listings.
Vinyl: There are light, mild or very mild sleeve rubs which can only be seen under a strong light. There is a very light 3.5 cm surface rub mark on the B-side. There is another smaller 1 cm surface rub mark on the B-side too. These do not notice that much. There are two other (3 cm & 3.5 cm) hairline surface rub marks on the B-side. These are both very light & can hardly be seen under a strong light. The paper sleeve, over time, has left some light, mild or very mild dull surface marks on some areas. They are mainly on the play-out dead wax areas. These, again, can only be seen under a strong light. Overall, a strong Very Good condition. The labels are in Near Excellent condition and show mild or very mild spindle wear only. The company paper sleeve is in Very Good condition. It shows some light, mild or very mild ringwear & creasing. There are two small tears (2 cm & 3.5 cm) at the die-cut centre area on the rear side of the sleeve. There are no seam splits.
I have play tested this single in its entirety & it plays Excellent to Excellent+ overall. There are no clicks or pops, A great audio copy!
Traceable insurance is already included in the stated P&P price for this listing.
Discount is given on P&P for multiple purchases. I shall always weigh combined purchases to get a completely accurate price so please wait for the invoice to be sent before paying for multiple purchases. Please see below for a more detailed P&P description.
MINT Condition = A perfect copy! Almost impossible to find like this.
NEAR MINT Condition = Very nearly mint just slightly under, There may be a very few, very light paper surface sleeve rubs that can hardly be seen under strong light. This disc has been played a couple of times at most. The sleeve is virtually perfect - there is very minimal wear only.
EXCELLENT Condition = A clean & tidy copy that shows minimal defects. There will be light, very mild or very minor surface sleeve rubs. There will be no scratches. The cover will be very nice & clean with maybe minimal creasing, ringwear or edge rubbing wear etc...
NEAR EXCELLENT Condition = You can tell this record has been played a few times, but it has been well cared for. There will be minor surface marks only. The sleeve may have light, mild or very mild creasing,ringwear & very mild rubbing wear to the edges etc.... Overall, it will be a very serviceable copy that you will be pleased with.
Very Good Condition = A well played but very decent overall copy. There will be a few marks on the vinyl, but they won't be nasty scratches, just relatively light needle scuffs and sleeve removal marks, they will be noticeable but won't detract from play too much. Cover will show signs of storage/ ageing, e.g., creasing, slight folding, spinewear, ringwear or sticker tears etc... The record will not be trashed!!
Please note that I also use "+" or "-" symbols for this grading. A plus symbol is obviously at the top end of "Very Good" & is really not far from being in "near excellent" condition. The minus symbol obviously means it is at the lower end. This will mean that it is near to being in "Good+" condition.
>> Postage Rates

(Please note that these prices include packaging costs too)
DISCOUNT WILL BE GIVEN ON POSTAGE FOR MULTIPLE ITEMS.
Please note that these prices are as a general guideline only. For example: Double LPs are classed as two LPs. Also posters, inserts, etc.. can increase postage costs. One parcel must not exceed 2kg (approximately 4-6 LPS).
All records will be sent in high quality vinyl mailers with at least two card stiffeners either side of the LP or 7". I use a cruciform box for larger orders (4-6 LPs). All parcels will be marked "Fragile" and dispatch time will generally be between 1-3 days after payment.
I will also remove the vinyl from the sleeve & place them in a re-sealable polythene sleeve. In order to prevent seam splits. Depending on the inner sleeve; I often remove the vinyl from the inner sleeve & place it in a separate plain paper, or polythene-lined, plain inner sleeve. I am very conscientious and careful when packaging your LP(s).
I consider my postage & packaging costs to be very transparent & very fair. Packaging costs will generally be between £0.80 to £1.50. I am not adding any further costs for handling, etc...
If you are uncertain about any of the above, or just simply want some information regarding any item, please do not hesitate to contact me. I welcome any questions.
