Cover            EX

The iconic black prism gatefold sleeve is in great shape. No sticker removal damage, writing or other notable marks. Crisp opening edge, and strong spine with bare minimum of edge creases. Just the merest of corner tip rub, and no powdery white ring press. Inside the gatefold is clean and clear, and is marked “7303”, indicating March 1973 release date, and also printed is “File under popular: pop groups”. A fine example. 

Inner             EX

Plain white inner sleeve. No writing or other marks, and the merest of handling creases. No side or bottom edge splits.

Labels          EX   

Classic black Harvest labels with blue outline prism and EMI logo. Both labels are clean, flat and smooth with no discernible sign of spindle traces.

Vinyl             EX   

The vinyl itself looks lovely and has retained its original glossy sheen and finish. Just a very few small wispy lines visible when angled to the light, but these do not affect play. The LP has been fully and attentively play tested on a Project/Ortofon/NAD system with very discerning Bayerdynamic headphones. It sounds awesome! - no scratches, skips, pops or jumps. Be aware the vinyl does have some static, audible particularly in the quieter passages, but overall the sound quality is truly superb and it was a really great listen.

Posters & postcards

Comes complete with the two original DSOTM posters and two postcards, all in near mint condition – unopened and unused.

Any questions – please just ask.

SEE MY FEEDBACK AND BUY WITH CONFIDENCE

I have included the maximum of 12 high quality photos, taken in good light with a decent camera and from a variety of angles, so you can properly judge the detailed condition of the cover, inner and labels for yourself. Any significant marks or defects on these aspects of the LP will be clearly visible in the photos.

My own gradings are based on the standard record collector guidelines (see below).

I am not a record dealer, I am a 48-year old North London vinyl enthusiast re-creating my own private collection from a wide range of sources (having foolishly sold all my original LPs at a university record fair in my twenties!). I enjoy researching albums, and I am selling a small number of them on ebay, not to rip anyone off but just as a Sunday afternoon hobby. Please do ask if you want any more information about this LP before bidding.

In the unlikely event that you are not satisfied with your purchase I will be very happy to give a refund (minus return postage) if the record is returned to me in the same condition within 14 days. Please message me immediately to resolve any concerns that you have and I will do my level best to help - I have 100% positive feedback and I would like to keep it that way. Thanks.

The LP will be securely packaged. It will be sent in a new polythene sleeve, together with two additional thick card inserts (one either side), set inside a new dedicated record mailer envelope. The vinyl will be separated from the cover to prevent any ring marking in transit. The package will be secured with thick tape and marked with additional large “FRAGILE” taped stickers twice on both sides.

Thanks for looking, and Happy Bidding!

POSTAGE

I send all my LPs tracked & signed. This provides added security for both buyer & seller.

My listings end on a Sunday evening. I am happy to combine LPs into one package if they are won on the same day.

Note that most single LPs will weigh around 500g. Double LPs & single LPs with gatefold sleeves will weigh a little more.

RECORD COLLECTOR MAGAZINE GRADING GUIDE

MINT: The record is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.

FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
