Description
PINK FLOYD "PIPER AT THE GATES OF DAWN" (1968) CAPITOL 6000 SERIES (CANADA) 2ND PRESSING (GREEN TARGET LABEL)
HERE IS A BEAUTIFUL 2ND EDITION (1968) PRESSING OF THE PINK FLOYD'S DEBUT ALBUM. THIS COPY IS AN ORIGINAL CANADIAN PRESSING ON THE MUCH SOUGHT AFTER "CAPITOL 6000" SERIES AND IS SIGNIFICANTLY HARDER TO FIND THAN IT'S U.S. COUNTERPART ON TOWER RECORDS - WHETHER A 1ST EDITION RED OR 2ND EDITION CANDY STRIPE LABEL COPY.
****THIS CAPITOL 6000 SERIES EDITION FEATURES ELEVEN (11) TRACKS INCLUDING "ASTRONOMIE DOMINE", "FLAMING" AND "BIKE" WHICH ARE NOT FOUND ON THE U.S. TOWER VERSION. IT ALSO OMITS "SEE EMILY PLAY", ONE OF JUST NINE (9) TRACKS FOUND ON THE U.S. TOWER VERSION. THE TRACK SEQUENCE BETWEEN THE TWO VERSIONS ARE ALSO DISTINCTLY DIFFERENT.
THE ORIGINAL OWNER INSCRIBED HIS NAME ON THE LABEL FACE OF SIDE 1 AND ALSO AFFIXED A SMALL, THOUGH BARELY VISIBLE PRINTED LABEL ON THE BACKSIDE LEFT-HAND CORNER (SEE PHOTOS). THAT ASIDE, THIS IS A SPLENDED COPY ALL AROUND THAT ALSO RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL FACTORY SHRINK WRAP THAT IS 100% INTACT.
VINYL IS CLEAN AND GLOSSY WITH NO VISIBLE SURFACE MARKS OF ANY KIND. NO HAIRLINES, SCRATCHES OR SCUFFS. THE LABELS ARE CLEAN AS NEW WITH NO SPINDLE MARKS AROUND THE CENTER HOLE. AGAIN, SIDE ONE BEARS THE OWNER'S NAME IN FELT MARKER, SIDE 2 IS CLEAN. UPON INSPECTION, IT APPEARS THIS COPY RECEIVED LITTLE TO NO PLAY.
COVER IS SPLENDED AND BEAUTIFULLY PRESERVED IN ITS ORIGINAL FACTORY SHRINK WRAP WITH NO WEAR, NO PATINA NOR TEARS OR SEPARATION ALONG THE FRONT/BACK SIDE, SPINE OR SEAMS. SPINE AND SEAMS ARE SOLID WITH NO PENETRATION OR VISIBLE WEAR. I'VE INCLUDED SEVERAL PHOTOS TO ILLUSTRATE MY DESCRIPTION SO PLEASE REVIEW CAREFULLY TO INSURE THIS MEETS YOUR STANDARDS.
SHIPPING
***PLEASE IGNORE EBAY DEFAULT SHIPPING RATES***
IN THE INTEREST OF ALL PARTIES, I REQUIRE TRACKED SHIPPING. WHILE MORE EXPENSIVE, IT DOES ELIMINATE THE GREY FACTOR IN THE EVENT THAT A PACKAGE IS DELAYED OR GOES MISSING. THAT SAID, I CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ITEM AFTER IT CHANGES HANDS TO CANADA POST. THIS ALSO PROVIDES LIMITED INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR THAT EXTRA PEACE OF MIND. I HAVE SHIPPED TO INTERNATIONAL DESTINATIONS BY SURFACE WHICH RESULTED IN BOTH A LOSS OF MERCHANDISE AND REIMBURSEMENT OF PAYMENT, SO PLEASE UNDERSTAND MY RATIONALE FOR INSISTING UPON THESE TERMS. ALSO, I WILL NOW ONLY SHIP TO CANADA AND THE CONTINENTAL UNITED STATES. PRICING AS FOLLOWS:
45s - $20 (Canada) *** tracking w/no insurance - 4 business days $24 (Canada) *** tracking w/$100 insurance - 2 business days $20 (U.S.A.) *** tracking w/limited insurance - 8 business days
LPs - $20 (Canada) *** tracking w/no insurance - 4 business days $25 (Canada) *** tracking w/$100 insurance - 2 business days $26 (U.S.A.) *** tracking w/limited insurance - 8 business days
LIKE YOU, I AM ALSO A BUYER AND EXPECT MY PURCHASES TO BE PROPERLY PACKAGED PRIOR TO SHIPPING TO AVOID ANY UNFORESEEN DAMAGES. CARDBOARD SLEEVES ARE USED TO REINFORCE PROTECTION AND STABILITY FOR BOTH FORMATS. FOR LPs, I ALWAYS REMOVED THE DISC FROM THE JACKET TO PREVENT ANY "PIERCING" OF THE SPINE OF SEAMS DURING TRANSIT. *** FOR SEALED ITEMS, THERE IS A POTENTIAL RISK OF SUCH INCIDENCE, SO UNLESS YOU PROVIDE ANY SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS TO BREAK THE SEAL AND REMOVE THE DISC PRIOR TO SHIPPING, I WILL SHIP AS IS. YOU ACCEPT THE RISK.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST
