Please see the photographs above for the track listings, and feel free to contact me if you have a question that is not answered below.

CONDITION:

VINYL EXCELLENT+ to NEAR MINT The records have been stored in polylined inners from new - the black vinyl is beautifully clean and bright with only very light signs of play on Disc One and minimal signs of play on Disc Two. The sound reproduction is SUPERB throughout.

LABELS EXCELLENT+ to NEAR MINT The white paper labels are clean with light spindle lines on Disc One and minimal spindle lines on Disc Two.

INNER SLEEVES NEAR MINT The two die-cut grey cardboard sleeves look almost like new. The records will be sent in new polylined inner sleeves.

HESSIAN OUTER SLEEVE NEAR MINT The hessian hardback outer sleeve has been stored out of sunlight and looks almost like new inside and out.

Please note that the white ribbon is clean and flat with minimal discolouration; however it has broken and been neatly repaired will clear tape - it is not stuck to the inner sleeve but moves freely. Please see the photograph above.

OUTER SLEEVE EXCELLENT+++ The soft grey cardboard Garrod & Lofthouse sleeve is beautifully clean and unmarked, with very slight rubbing at the bottom of the spine and along the bottom lefthand corner of the back cover. The inner gatefold looks almost like new. 

IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO FIND A BETTER EXAMPLE OF THIS ORIGINAL 1981 UK FACTORY JOY DIVISION CLASSIC.

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 A FEEDBACK SCORE OF 10 OR UNDER: We all need to start somewhere but, due to an unacceptably high proportion of phantom U.S. non-payers, I would ask all low 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.

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.

PLEASE MAKE YOUR PAYMENT WITHIN 48 HOURS of receiving your invoice. If you will be unable to pay within 48 hours then please contact me BEFORE YOU BID - communication is everything. eBay will automatically open an 'Unpaid Item' case if payment has not been received within an acceptable time.

Alternatively, throw it away and set fire to a couple of old tyres.

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.

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. I am based in England and own a real, old-fashioned record shop called 101 COLLECTORS RECORDS in Farnham, on the Surrey/Hampshire borders, about one hour out of central London.

I am proud to be a TOP RATED EBAY SELLER with a 100% POSITIVE FEEDBACK HISTORY and over 1,385 SATISFIED ONLINE CUSTOMERS.

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 can be contacted on 01252 734409 between 10am - 5.30pm Monday to Saturday.

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. 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.

Thank you.

Andy
