Pink Floyd - The Division Bell
(Columbia Records C62400 USA LP 1994)
This is a 1994 USA Limited Edition 1st pressing LP in superb condition! It has a heavyweight glossy matte gatefold sleeve. The rear sleeve has the "Manufactured by Columbia Records/ 550 Madison Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10022-3211" printed text. It comes with its original Lyric/ Information Inner Sleeve. This is top opening & printed on thick glossy paper.
The record is pressed on thick translucent Blue Vinyl & has custom paper labels. The record has 1st press PAL 64200-1B and PAL 64200-1B matrix numbers. These are machine etched in the dead wax. "TML-M" is machine stamped in the dead wax on Side 1 and Side 2.
This is a genuine 1994 USA Limited Edition LP pressing on translucent blue vinyl. In superb condition too! These are quite rare. I have some other UK original Pink Floyd LP's for sale too. These are also in great condition. There are a couple of tour programmes too. So please see my other listings.
Gatefold Sleeve: Superb! There is some light, very mild or very minor rubbing wear to the corner tips. There is a tiny 1 cm bit of very mild hairline rubbing wear on the bottom edge. This is at the spine area. Otherwise, there is no rubbing wear on the bottom edges. There is no rubbing wear on the top edges. There is a very minor vertical hairline crease at the centre of the spine face. This has been caused by opening the sleeve. This is unavoidable. Otherwise, the spine is in superb condition & shows next to no wear. The inner gatefold is in superb condition too. There is some light, very mild or very minor ringwear on a few areas. Overall, the gatefold sleeve is in EXCELLENT+ condition.
Vinyl: Looks to be hardly played. The vinyl still gleams like when it was first pressed! Next to no sleeve rubs can be seen when viewed under a strong light. Overall, NEAR MINT condition.
The Labels are in Excellent to Near Mint condition. There are three very feint fingertip marks on Side 2;s label. These hardly notice under a strong light. Otherwise, minimal, or next to no, spindle wear.
The original Lyric/ Information inner sleeve is in Near Excellent condition. It shows light, mild, very mild or very minor ringwear & handling creases. There is some light, very mild or very minor hairline rubbing wear on the edges on a few areas. There are no seam splits.
I have play tested this LP in its entirety & it plays Very Near Excellent to Excellent overall, & Excellent+ in many places. There is some light, very mild or very minor crackle in some quieter places. There are two mild clicks at the start of "High Hopes" on Side 2. There are no other clicks or pops. Please be aware that the audio quality of coloured vinyl is never to the standard of black vinyl pressings. Overall, a great audio copy!
I shall place the vinyl LP into a separate plain paper inner sleeve. This will protect the original lyric inner sleeve from any damage during the shipping process,
Traceable insurance is already included in the stated P&P price for this listing.
Discount is given on P&P for multiple purchases. I shall always weigh combined purchases to get a completely accurate price. So please wait for the invoice to be sent before paying. Please see below for a more detailed description.
MINT Condition = This is as perfect a copy as you are likely to find. The cover will show no, or next to no, wear. The vinyl will be unplayed or very, very near unplayed.
NEAR MINT Condition = Nearly mint, just slightly under. There maybe some minor paper/ inner sleeve rubs that can barely be seen under strong light. This disc has been played only a few times & has been extremely well cared for. The cover is nearly perfect - Very minimal wear only.
EXCELLENT Condition = An excellent copy will show only mild, or minor, signs of use. There will be light, or very mild, sleeve rubs that can hardly be seen under strong light. There may be a very small & minor hairline mark in some instances. Play, in most cases, will be excellent or better. There may be some light, or very light, crackle in a few quieter places. The sleeve will show mild, or minor, rubbing wear & ringwear only.
NEAR EXCELLENT Condition = This has been played a few more times but it has been well cared for. There will be mild sleeve rubs which can be seen under a strong light. There may be a couple of minor, or light, hairline marks. Playback will be generally excellent or better. There may be some light, mild or very mild crackle in some quieter places. The cover will show mild rubbing wear, ringwear or creasing
Very Good Condition = Most records that have been quite well played, but reasonably well cared for, tend to fit into this category. This is probably the most varied of the gradings so I have elaborated below.
There may be mild to more moderate sleeve rubs which can only be seen under a strong light. There may be a few light hairline marks but nothing too bad. A quite well played but serviceable copy. Playback will be very agreeable overall. There will be light, mild or very mild crackle in some places. There may also be a few light clicks. A more thorough description will always be on the listing. The record will certainly not be trashed!
The cover will show more noticeable signs of storage or use. There will be mild to more moderate rubbing wear on some edges There could be fading, ringwear or a minor seam split. There could be some mild creasing or mild sticker tears.
Please note that I also use "+" or "-" symbols for this grading. A plus symbol is obviously at the top end of "Very Good" & is really not too far from being in "Near Excellent" condition. The minus symbol obviously means it is at the lower end. This will mean that it is near to being in "Good+" condition.
>> Postage Rates
AN INVOICE WILL BE SENT TO YOU VERY SOON AFTER THE AUCTION ENDS. PLEASE WAIT FOR THIS BEFORE PAYING.
(Please note that these prices include packaging costs too)
Double LPs are classed as two LPs. Also gatefold sleeves, posters, inserts, etc.. can increase postage costs.
Please note that there are now VAT import charges from the UK into all EU countries. Anything under 150 Euros will need an IOSS number. VAT is paid at point of sale. For any items over 150 Euros in value. There will be a customs charge too. These vary, I believe, from country to country. Please check your relevant postal service online for details. Please note that these charges are beyond my control and are the law for outside parcels going into the EU.
All records will be sent in high quality vinyl box/ mailers with at least two card stiffeners either side of the LP or 7" Single. I use a cruciform box for larger orders (3-6 LPs). All parcels will be marked "Fragile" and dispatch time will generally be between 1-3 days after payment.
I will also remove the vinyl from the sleeve & place them in a re-sealable polythene sleeve. In order to prevent seam splits. Depending on the inner sleeve; I often remove the vinyl from the inner sleeve & place it in a separate plain paper, or polythene-lined, plain inner sleeve. I am very conscientious and careful when packaging your LP(s).
I consider my postage & packaging costs to be very transparent & very fair. Packaging costs will generally be between £0.80 to £1.50. I am not adding any further costs for handling, etc...
If you are uncertain about any of the above, or just simply want some information regarding any item, please do not hesitate to contact me. I welcome any questions.
