Description
Superb 3 LP box set of their classic 1981 German Gigs plus the 1980 Western Works demos cassette, made in Europe on no listed label, records are just plain white labels, cassette has "special presentation box set limited edition printed inside the factory made insert. These gigs are just a year after Joy Division ended due to Ian Curtis's death & are very intense shows & their music in this period is much more Joy Divison sounding than what they became a few years later (my personal favorite period of the band). This is an vintage original not any kind of repress, made probably 1982-84 era. I've personally had it since 1989.

CONDITION: This set has probably been played less than 5 times, always stored in plastic the plain white record labels have those very small video tape removeable stickers on them noting sides A-F. Songs from the cassette glued to the inside of the tape insert (heating it up with a blowdryer it's coming off but might tear). Ex to near mint on everything basically (no seam cracking on the box or dented corners).
LP SHIPPING + PACKING & VARIOUS INFO:
I use real coated cardboard LP mailers when I ship vinyl & these are very durable. I usually take the records with the inner sleeves out of the covers (unless factory sealed of course) so they don't split the seams of the cover in shipment. Then I put them in a 2 or 3 mil plastic sleeve & then wrap a plastic bag or two around them to keep them from flopping around in the mailer, this method seems to work best since it adds air & almost works like bubble wrap (keeps the LP's usually under a pound & saves a lot on shipping rates worldwide compared to using cardboard inserts), breakage rate has been way less than 1 in 1000 using this method, if I added cardboard it also would make the weight of it more prone to the corners getting dented in transit if dropped. 10" records & 12" singles count as 1 LP for shipping, single laserdiscs count as 2 LP's for shipping (& I pack 2+ records differently & I have oversized boxes for larger packages...don't worry I've been sending out stuff about 5 days a week for over 20 years now & know exactly what I'm doing over here). I also add plain white inner sleeves so custom inner sleeves don't get spit in shipping also (if either company or specialty sleeves came with the record).
All records are BLACK VINYL unless noted & inserts/gatefold covers/posters/custom inner sleeves will be noted in the description if they are included plus promo & cut-out marks stated if they are there also. I don't believe in hiding stuff & try to note most everything that should matter to buyers. All 12" vinyl on ebay is automatically listed as 33 1/3 rpm & 7" vinyl as 45 rpm (to save time on listing all this stuff) if you need to confirm speed on a specific item please ask & I can go check.
