LET IT BE BOX SET PXS 1 COMPLETE AND ORIGINAL.

Hi and welcome to my auction. My name is Stuart, and let me start by saying that first and foremost, I am an avid record collector, and have been since I purchased my first record in the late 60’s. I don’t sell many records at all, but have decided that I don’t need so many duplicates of everything, so have decided to thin down my collection to make room! Most of the records I will be selling over the coming weeks will be either duplicates or ones that I have acquired that do not fit into my “wanted” list.

I take great care of all my records as regards storage and protection, and they are stored upright and in a dry, smoke and pet free environment, away from bright sunlight. All the ones I will be listing will be carefully play tested and visually graded, and Any significant defects to the record or sleeve will be noted in the listing. I will use the grading system found in the Record Collector Rare Record Price Guide 2010.

Buyer satisfaction is very important to me, and I am very proud of my 100% feedback, which I have had since starting Ebaying 6 years ago. If I grade a record as near mint ( I do not believe in grading mint, unless it is brand new) then you can be sure that it will be visually and audibly just that, and would be hard to find a better example!

I will give a full, money back guarantee if item is significantly not as described (less return postage costs). If there are any problems with your purchase, please contact me before leaving negative feedback, and I will endeavour to resolve them to our mutual satisfaction.

Ok, now I have given you some background information about myself, it’s time to get on with the auction.

I HAVE FOR SALE THE BEATLES LET IT BE BOX SET PXS 1, WHICH IS COMPLETE AND ORIGINAL. THE BOX SET WAS RELEASED ON THE 8TH MAY 1970, AND WAS ONLY IN PRODUCTION FOR A SHORT TIME UNTIL THE RELEASE ON THE 6TH NOVEMBER OF JUST THE ALBUM, THE BOX SET THEN BEING DELETED.

SIDE 1  YEX-773-2U  STAMPERS  1,7 / GR (THERE IS ALSO A G ON ITS SIDE THAT HAS BEEN CROSSED OUT)

SIDE 2  YEX-774-2U  STAMPERS  5 / AA

 VISUAL & AUDIO. BOTH SIDES DO HAVE SOME LIGHT SCRATCHES AND SCUFFS, BUT STILL PLAY REMARKABLY WELL, AS DESCRIBED FURTHER ON. WHEN HELD UP TO BRIGHT SUNLIGHT BOTH SIDES STILL RETAIN THEIR DEEP BLACK GLOSS SHINE. BOTH SIDES PLAY THROUGH REMARLABLY WELL WITH NO SKIPS,STICKS OR JUMPS.ONLY 3 THINGS I COULD HEAR WERE 8 LIGHT TICKS AT THE END OF SIDE 1 FIRST TRACK, 6-8 FEINT "THUMPS" AT THE START OF SIDE 2 FIRST TRACK AND 5-6 CLICKS AT THE END OF SIDE 2 FIRST TRACK. THERE IS A LITTLE BACKGOUND NOISE HERE AND THERE, AND THE ODD STATIC TICK OR POP, BUT NOTHING OBTRUSIVE ENOUGH TO SPOIL THE ENJOYMENT OF THIS GREAT ALBUM.THE SOUND QUALITY OF BOTH SIDES IS STILL CLEAR AND VIBRANT. SIDE 1 LABEL DOES HAVE FEINT SIGNS OF GLUE RESIDUE FROM THE REMOVAL OF A STICKER, AS CAN BE SEEN IN THE PICS BELOW. SIDE 2 LABEL IS CLEAN AND BRIGHT WITH NO STICKERS OR WRITING. THE RECORD LIES PERFECTLY FLAT ON THE TURNTABLE. I WOULD GRADE VISUALLY AS VERY GOOD, AND AUDIO AS VERY GOOD+.

THE OUTER RECORD SLEEVE. ALL 4 CORNERS ONLY HAVE VERY MINIMAL "BUMPING",AND VERY SLIGHT WEAR MARKS. THERE ARE NO SPLITS OR PEELING TO THE LAMINATE. THE FRONT OF THE SLEEVE SHOWS VERY LIGHT RING WEAR AND 3 OR 4 LIGHT "THUMBNAILS" ONLY REALLY VISIBLE WHEN REFLECTED IN THE LIGHT. THE REAR OF THE SLEEVE WITH ITS CORRECT RED APPLE HAS 1 OR 2 LIGHT "THUMBNAILS", AGAIN ONLY REALLY NOTICABLE WHEN REFLECTED IN THE LIGHT. THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL NICE AND SHARP, WITH MINIMAL SIGNS OF WEAR. THE SPINE HAS 1 SMALL 1/2 CM "SCRAPE". I WOULD GRADE THIS AS EXCELLENT.

THE INNER RECORD SLEEVE. THE INNER SLEEVE IS CLEAN AND WHITE WITH MINIMAL CREASING, AND 2 SMALL 1CM TEARS. I WOULD GRADE THIS VERY GOOD+ OR BETTER.

THE OUTER SLIP CASE. ALL 4 CORNERS OF THE "PATENTS PENDING" SLIP CASE HAVE LIGHT "BUMPING" AND WEAR MARKS, AND BOTH END OPENINGS HAVE LIGHT WEAR MARKS, BUT NO "FEATHERING" THERE ARE NO TEARS AT ALL.(RARE ON THESE CONSIDERING HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO GET OFF AND ON THE TRAY ASSEMBLY!)BOTH THE FRONT,REAR AND EDGES RETAIN THEIR GREAT SHINE. I WOULD HAVE TO GRADE THIS AS EXCELLENT.

OUTER TRAY. THE OUTER TRAY WITH THE FOLD OVER FLAPS IS IN RESPECTABLE CONDITION WITH NO TEARS, AND HAS ONLY SUFFERED SOME CREASING TO THE FLAPS AND RUBBING TO THE EDGES AND CORNERS. (SEE PICS) I WOULD GRADE THIS AS EXCELLENT.

INNER BOOK TRAY. THESE TEND TO SUFFER THE MOST, BUT THESE SEEMS TO HAVE FAIRED WELL, STILL BEING QUITE STURDY. THE ONLY FAULT WITH THIS IS A COUPLE OF TINY TEARS TO 2 OF THE CORNERS, AND A LITTLE CREASING ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE(SEE PISCS). I WOULD GRADE THIS AS EXCELLENT-.

THE GET BACK BOOK. THIS IS ANOTHER PART OF THE BOX SET THAT TENDS NOT TO FAIR TO WELL,BUT THIS BOOK IS IN GREAT CONDITION WITH NO LOOSE PAGES AT ALL. THERE IS NO WRITING OR UNWANTED MARKS ON ANY OF THE PAGES EXCEPT THE INSIDE OF THE REAR COVER HAS A MARK WHICH LOOKS LIKE IT WAS THERE SINCE NEW. THERE IS NO CREASING TO THE OUTER COVERS, AND ONLY 1 TINY "CHIP" IN THE FRONT COVER AND A LIGHT LINE NEAR THE BOTTOM.(SEE PICS) I WOULD HAVE TO GRADE THIS AS EXCELLENT+
