I believe this to be the original 1st. UK pressing...if this is incorrect please let me know.

 Vinyl is VG+, some light scuffs,light surface noise and clicks on side 1. A few light clicks during quiet passages on side 2.

Cover is VG+, Laminated flipback front with a crease to the laminate on the top let. The writing on the spine is clear. Some surface marks on the front and slight bumping to all four corners. Light discolouration on the back cover and small owner's sticker. 

Labels are matt orange, as shown with light spindle wear. These were earlier than the green labels.

1st class UK postage is £3.00 and includes insurance to the value of £34. Additional insurance will be required for items over this amount. Please ask for overseas postage.

NB I will be at Glastonbury until the 29th. June. I will endeavour to get on-line to answer any questions, but this might not be possible. I will not be able to post until about the 31st.

A brief introduction. I have been selling unwanted possessions on ebay for some years now. I’m now starting to list part of my record collection which goes back to the early 60s. There will be a variety of genres and rarities such as 1st. pressings of “Five Leaves Left”, “The Who Sell Out” and “Let it Be" to be listed in the coming months.

All records will be graded using the Record Collector guidelines (see below). If in doubt I will err on the side of caution. Every record will be play graded after being cleaned on a Clearaudio Smart Matrix record cleaning machine. I am proud of my 100% feedback and hope that will remain the case…customer satisfaction is paramount to me. I offer a 7 day return policy if the item is damaged or not as described. If you believe that my description is innacurate, please let me know.

All records will be posted in mailers with two cardboard stiffeners. The record will be removed from its cover and placed next to it to prevent damage in transit. Insurance up to £34 included in the UK.

Record Collector Rare Price Guide - Grading System

(M) MINT: -

The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. 

The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. 

Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

(EX) EXCELLENT: -

The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. 

The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

(VG) VERY GOOD: -

The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. 

Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

(G) GOOD: -

The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. 

The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.

(F) FAIR: -

The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump.

The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

(P) POOR: -

The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. 

The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

(B) BAD: -

The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
