Description

I AM SELLING MY RECORD COLLECTION!

This is one of many albums and singles that I will be letting go of in the coming weeks and months.

Please keep an eye on my other auctions for more vinyl; I have many different artists, genres, etc. Around 150 items all told in the 12" section plus a couple 10" items, a 7" box set, and a fair number of 7" singles as well.

Radiohead fans: Radiohead was one of my favorite bands back when I was actively collecting, so I have more where this came from.  Keep checking back as it will take some time to get it all listed. 

About my vinyl auctions: all will start at $0.99 with no reserve, regardless of rarity and/or condition. All pictures will be of the item being sold, no stock and/or generic images, no re-used images from other auctions. International shipping. Combined shipping on multiple auctions won. Other shipping options may be available: if you think there is a less expensive option out there that isn't mentioned in the shipping section, let me know and I will look into it. My arsenal of lp mailers, USPS Priority Mail flats, bubble wrap, cardboard inserts, newspaper, etc, stands at the ready to ensure that every record will go out with the best chance possible of making it to you unscathed. Every item will be described in detail, using the grading system posted online by the Record Collectors Guild, so that you know exactly what you are bidding on. Play testing of the vinyl is, however, impossible as I do not own a turntable. This basic format will be used for all.

More notes on grading:  I will never grade a record as Mint, not even sealed records; Near Mint is as high as I will go. Also, eBay has a grade called "Excellent" which I am unfamiliar with and will also never use. The next grade down from Near Mint is Very Good Plus. Finally, I will never sell a record that I consider to be in Poor condition; the lowest possible grade for a record at auction is Good. All told the possible grades are, in order from lowest to highest, Good - Good Plus - Very Good - Very Good Plus - Near Mint.

eCheck payments: items paid for by eCheck via PayPal will not ship until the payment clears.

International shipping: all customs forms will clearly state the actual contents, the price/value of each (i.e., the winning bid(s)), and will be marked as "merchandise".  Also, First Class International shipping is available for this item to Canada for $15.15 and to Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Croatia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Gibraltar, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Malta, Netherlands, New Zealand, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Switzerland, and United Kingdom for $22.30.  If you are from one of those countries you may need to wait for me to send you an invoice prior to paying as the checkout system may not show you that shipping option or may quote a higher price.

On to the item specifics:  this auction is for one (1) Radiohead Kid A 10" double vinyl album.  Original UK First Pressing.

Important: There is no 28 page booklet!  I don't know where eBay gets this stuff from.  The cd came with a booklet.  This is the vinyl release.  I have no idea where a 28 page booklet would fit; everything you get is shown in the pictures.

Label: Parlophone
Catalog number: UK:LPKIDA1
Made in the UK.

Cover condition:  Very Good Plus. This is another one I am tempted to give a NM but just can't bring myself to do it because I found some minor fault. The top right corner is slightly dinged.  There is just the faintest hint of ringwear visible on the front cover. Also, there is a "Made in England" sticker on the front cover.

Record 1 (sides A and B) condition: Near Mint. Beautiful.
Record 2 (sides C and D) condition: Very Good Plus.  Has fingerprint smudges on labels (both sides). Also has spidering around the spindle hole both sides which I believe is a manufacturing defect. Playing surfaces are Near Mint.  VG+ is a conservative grade for this record.

My apologies for being redundant, but I would like to repeat that VG+ is one step from NM, and NM is the highest grade I will give a record.
