***RELISTED DUE TO TIMEWASTER** See note below**
THE KINGSTONIANS / THE CRYSTALITES
Out There / Version II
SONG BIRD SB1045
1970
VINTAGE 45RPM VINYL SINGLE
*** This item was recently ‘won’ by a timewaster who visits every few months with a new account, outbids everyone but doesn’t pay. They use a false name but retain the same delivery name and address, which I only see after they’ve won the item. I don’t understand his motivation and report them regularly…when I cancel their order, I can see that others have bid but am unable to do a second chance offer or to contact the second bidder directly……….So I am relisting at the price the second bidder would have won at, if not pushed higher by the fake bid, in the hope that they will see this. With free postage to make up for the inconvenience.”
CONDITION EX
Vinyl is bright and clean with a couple of small light marks NAP. Plays well - no skips or jumps. Labels are bright and clean. Centre intact. Matrix stamped. Original Trojan advertisement paper sleeve. See photos.
ABOUT THIS RECORD
This record comes from the collection of the late Michael de Koningh - reggae historian, regular contributor to Record Collector magazine, and co-author of “Young, Gifted and Black - The Story of Trojan Records” and “Tighten Up - The History of Reggae in the UK”.
*** GRADING ***
I grade visually under a daylight lamp so my grading may be harsher than some and I listen to samples of the record through headphones, picking up light background crackles that may not be obvious through speakers. I use an excellent vintage DJ turntable and stylus and a slight weight on the arm.
My gradings are from M-Mint to G-Good. I rarely grade M unless the item is sealed.
*** COMBINED POSTAGE ***
I invoice on Monday evenings and will combine postage for multiple items. If you’d like to pay sooner, just request an invoice and I will alter the postage costs for you.
***POSTAGE AND PACKING***
Please pay within 3 days of the end of the auction or let me know if you are bidding on another item.
I aim to send your item to you within 3 working days of payment. Sometimes circumstances prevent this, but I will try to let you know.
I use Tracked or International Tracked and Signed. I don’t send items without tracking.
I use professional packaging and board stiffeners for protection. I separate disc from cover for LPs/picture sleeves. I tape your item up well to avoid split seams on packaging so please open your package with extreme care.
*** RETURNS ***
Please do read the full description, including grading notes. If I have missed anything or not accurately described an item, please do get in touch with me.
I do not do partial refunds for new customers. I offer a full refund after discussion and upon return of the item, if unhappy.
***CUSTOMS CHARGES***
I have to enter the value of the item when buying postage, for tracking and insurance purposes. This value automatically transfers to the customs declaration. Please consider customs charges prior to bidding.
