This is a high quality stunning condition,and will be sent in high quality pakage.I recommend some sort of postal insurance,and welcome and will adapt to any reasonable postage options requested,you must pay any extra cost incurred,I'll not use postage to increase profit.

I always obtain proof of postage and uninsured items,while if they get lost I'll do all I can to help try and find them,I am not responsible.I have never had a record go missing yet,it is your risk how you want the records sent.

I get slightly muddled with Postage options on my Turbo Lister.Basically costs listed are the basic charge for 1st class,2nd class or Airmail.U.K.Special delivery needs signing for,and compensates upto the value of £500.

World wide I have used Airmail,and if you want International signed for,that costs an extra £3.50,then Extra compensation of upto 500 pounds costs another £2.00.This is what Royal mail charge me,I don't inflate the price.It is unfair to have to ensure items,I don't expect the postal service to steal records,but sadly this is how the world has become.Insurance is your personal choice.I will have the proof of postage for any item I send,and there my responsibility ends if items are lost.

Please,If you are not the sort of buyer to leave feedback,at least tell me when the record arrives safely,and that all is O.K,as I have a hugh backlog of Emails and sold items which have not been given feedback for,it clutters my computer and hinders me providing a smooth service.Thanks.

Condition:

Sleeve- Excellent+.A true stunner!!!Lovely and clean.Strong.No stickers or biro.The only damage to speak of is slight edge wear,mainly on the bottom.Not too serious,and slightly worn corners,although not too serious.There are no creases.Inside the gatefold,all is absolutely immaculate.It would be near impossible to find a better example.

Vinyl- Excellent+.Not a scratch on it.On very close inspection there is the slightest hint of the moost minimal of surface paper marks,possibly made when record was removed from the inner sleeve.Very hard to spot,and can't be heard.I don't like to clean Vinyl I am selling as I know many buyers are better at it than me.Although this Vinyl is lovely and clean and glossy there are a couple of very light patches of some sort of watermark,or the kind of stain I sometimes get after cleaning a record,and liquid drys and leaves a stain,just like when somebody cleans a window or mirror,or shiny paint on a car,and you see a watermark left behind after drying.It is not serious,but I am trying to give all details as this is such a special record.

I have listened to the record,and found that initially in the dead wax area of the start,there is a slight background crackle,which soom fades to leave an extremely pleasurable listening experiance.In the entire Vinyl I heard only about 3 very small clicks on side b,but not loud and soon forgotten.Maybe a clean would sort those out too.Between tracks,any background is extremely quiet,this is top grade Vinyl.

Labels- Excellent+.No problems on the Swirl side A,and only very light spindle mark on side B.

Innersleeve-Excellent-.Original Swirl sleeve.No splits,some corner creases and yellowing of age.No splits,a fully functional original innersleeve.

Extra Items,e.g.Poster,Insert-NONE.

All Items are Graded As In The Record Collector 2006 Price Guide,in Brief these grades are as folows:

Mint-Unplayed,sealed or as good as an unplayed undamaged item,.

Excellent-Some signs the record has been played,very little lessening in sound quality.Cover/Packaging might have slight wear/creasing.

Very Good-Been Played many times,no major deterioration in sound,despite noticeable surface marks,occational light scratch.Normal wear & tear on the cover or extra items,without major defect is acceptable.

Good-Played so much,used so much,sounds bad,many problems such as splits,stains etc.

Fair-Just Playable-not nice.

TRACKS ARE: Side 1;The Man,Hold Me Back,Time To Die,Red Glow.
