SUPER RARE (not a repress, not a bootleg, not a foreign variant) GREEN MISPRINT of Ride The Lightning on French label Bernett from 1984 with the original printed inner. In 1984, the French record label Bernett Records misprinted the color of the album cover in green, rather than blue, and only 400 copies with the green cover were produced. This is one of the holy grails of Metallica vinyl collecting - Grading information below.
I am auctioning of all my 1st pressings of Metallica this week - check out my other listings. Pretty much the entire catalog will be listed.
Sleeve: VG+, accumulation of dings, color breaking ticks and some rubbing that can all be seen in the photos. No splits.
Record: Side 1 VG+ with typical defects in-grade. Side 2 is VG with two feelable marks that result in some noticeable blips on Creeping Death and the intro to Call of Ktulu. I have playtested this again just before listing this auction, the album sounds great, but the blips are definitely there.
Inner: VG+
Will ship Priority Mail in an oversized box for maximum protection. This will cost extra, but that's the way she goes.
Shipping:
I COMBINE SHIPPING! Just wait for my invoice, each additional record is $2. I am a record collector and have been shipping records, comic books and artwork for 23 years on Ebay - I will remove the record from the sleeve during shipping to prevent seam splits. If your album has a printed inner, I will remove it from that as well to prevent seam splits and provide a generic inner to protect the record in transit. Your record will be packed in a box accordingly to ensure it arrives to you safe and sound.
You will be provided a tracking number by Ebay.
Payment:
Please pay within 4 days. After 72 hours, eBay automatically opens a case and will cancel the auction and I will relist. Unfortunately, I do not have time to police this on behalf of Ebay, so If you can’t pay within 4 days, please do not bid. 
I’m not responsible for any state sales taxes - Ebay does this on their own accord. Please factor this into your purchase. This is a new thing for Ebay and I have had multiple problems with non-paying bidders not wanting to pay additional money on the auction due to the sales tax.

Feedback Policy:
I strive for 100% satisfaction with all of my listings. I try to list all information and details regarding the item sold, but please understand mistakes happen, and I am not in charge of the post office. I am also not Amazon - if you have a porch pirate problem, it is your responsibility to accept your packages or make arrangements with your postal carrier to deliver when you’re home. If you’d like to pay for Signature Confirmation, I am happy to do that and let you know what that fee is. If you cannot come to terms with that concept or personal responsibility is not your thing, I’d appreciate you not bidding. If everything went well - it will be greatly appreciated if you leave accurate feedback and ratings regarding your transaction, I’ll do the same. If you've read this far, congratulations - you are one of the few people left in the world that still has a brain.
