A LITTLE BACKGROUND INFORMATION ABOUT purplegallinule
I have been a music lover and vinyl enthusiast since the early 1970s and over the past years have become an established and trusted eBay seller of a large and very wide range of vinyl records. The vast majority are authentic and original albums featuring quality music from the 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's pressings, but occasionally modern pressings if they are of particular interest. 
I am a GENUINE, INDIVIDUAL PRIVATE SELLER not a professional dealer, although you can be 100% assured that I will strive hard to apply thoroughly professional standards to every aspect of our eBay dealings. In the unlikely event that we ever did run into any problems, then please do not hesitate to contact me and you have my unequivocal guarantee that the matter will be resolved without delay. I am very privileged to have a loyal and highly valued band of returning customers and there is no satisfaction greater than when customers come back for more.
All the records which I sell have been very well cared for, though I will give an honest appraisal of their condition and will put up plenty of photos of the actual records for sale so you can see exactly what you are bidding on. I endeavour to highlight anything in the description which I would want to be made aware of before I decided to place a bid. I am very aware that, as a distance buyer, you are entrusting in the honesty of the item descriptions and I always aim to describe the items truthfully. Should you need further details on a particular record then I will happily provide more information or extra photographs. 
Every single record, whether a £5 or £500 album, goes through the same extensive 4-stage deep cleaning process using both professionally constructed ultrasonic and wet vacuum systems using record cleaning fluids of only the highest quality and purity, with techniques and formulae tailored and developed from the experience of cleaning 1000s upon 1000s of albums, so the vinyl is all immaculately clean, glossy and dust free. Every record is then visually inspected under the bright and highly revealing light of an inspection lamp and the results of this are noted in the descriptions.  
A note regarding the most important matter of all - the audio - as with all vinyl, even straight out of the cellophane, there can be light crackle or very light 'pops' during the quiet passages. I have listened carefully to all these records so I will include in the descriptions any aspects of the audio playback which needs to be highlighted and although obviously subjective, ultimately if I wouldn't be absolutely 100% happy to immediately slide the record in alongside my own personal treasured collection, then quite simply it will not be listed for sale on here.
All records will be supplied to you in a high quality clear outer wallet to protect the sleeve and the vinyl in a top quality poly-lined inner.

'Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of 'The War of the Worlds'' - original 1978 vinyl album in excellent condition. The matrix reads CBS 96000 A9 / B8 / C3 / D10.
The vinyl is in lovely condition and retains all of its original glossy sheen with only the very lightest of superficial hairlines visible in bright light and I have played this album through and playback is excellent. I am listening to the album as I type this, currently my favourite side, 3, with the brilliant performances by Phil Lynott and Julie Covington as Parson Nathaniel and Beth and the audio is superb, really crisp and clear and delivering all of that richness and depth characteristic of the music produced from the source of high quality well cared for vinyl.
The gatefold sleeve is in excellent condition, just showing a little light wear commensurate with 40 years of service, but this is a really nice sleeve which presents really well in its brand new high quality clear protective gatefold outer jacket.
The vinyl is now housed in brand new high quality poly-lined inner sleeves for safekeeping.
The large and high quality booklet features stunning full colour artwork by Peter Goodfellow, Geoff Taylor and Mike Trim along with information on the performers and is a really enjoyable accompaniment to this superb album. 
Please take a look at the photos which were taken today of the actual record for sale and give an accurate reflection of this vintage album's excellent all round condition.
All in all this is a really excellent looking and sounding copy of this 40 year old album.
