(SSS International Records 784 USA 7" Single 1969)
This is a 1969 original USA 7" Single pressing in very nice condition. The record is pressed on thick vinyl & has paper labels which have a large centre hole. The record has 1st press ZTSB-130325-1A and ZTSB-130326-1A matrix numbers. These are machine etched in the dead wax respectively. It comes with an original period plain white paper sleeve.
This single is actually a re-release of an A-side or B-side single issued on the "Red Bird" label in the mid 1960's. The A-side (I Wonder) is by "The Butterflys". This was originally released on the Red Bird label in 1964. The B-side (He's So Easy To Love) is by "Roddie Joy". This was originally released on the Red Bird label in 1965. Both of these tracks are the same version as the original releases issued on Red Bird. Why this single was issued under a different moniker seems a bit of a mystery. However, it is a great way to acquire the excellent Northern Soul track "He's So Easy To Love" by Roddie Joy.
I have some other rare & collectable 1960's, early 1970's Psych, Mod, UK Beat/ R'n'B/ Freakbeat and Northern Soul/ Mod Dancer UK Original 7" Singles & EP's for sale. So please see my other items.
Vinyl: There is a very light fingertip sized surface pressing mark on the A-side. This can hardly be seen under a strong light. There is a tiny pin-head sized surface rub mark on the B-side. This is not that noticeable under a strong light. Otherwise, there are some light, mild, very mild or very minor sleeve rubs which can hardly be seen under a strong light. The paper sleeve, over time, has left some light, very mild or very minor dull surface marks on some areas. These, again, can hardly be seen under a strong light. Overall, NEAR EXCELLENT condition. The labels are in Excellent+ condition and show minimal wear only. The period plain paper sleeve is in Very Good+ condition. There is some light, very mild or very minor ringwear & creasing. There is a small & very mild stain on one side. There are no seam splits.
I have play tested this single in its entirety & it plays Near Excellent to Excellent overall, & Excellent in some places. There is some light, very mild or very minor crackle noticeable in some quieter places. There are no clicks or pops. Overall, a great audio copy!
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 = A perfect copy! Almost impossible to find like this.
NEAR MINT Condition = Very nearly mint just slightly under, There may be a very few, very light paper surface sleeve rubs that can hardly be seen under strong light. This disc has been played a couple of times at most. The sleeve is virtually perfect - there is very minimal wear only.
EXCELLENT Condition = A clean & tidy copy that shows minimal defects. There will be light, very mild or very minor surface sleeve rubs. There will be no scratches. The cover will be very nice & clean with maybe minimal creasing, ringwear or edge rubbing wear etc...
NEAR EXCELLENT Condition = You can tell this record has been played a few times, but it has been well cared for. There will be minor surface marks only. The sleeve may have light, mild or very mild creasing,ringwear & very mild rubbing wear to the edges etc.... Overall, it will be a very serviceable copy that you will be pleased with.
Very Good Condition = A well played but very decent overall copy. There will be a few marks on the vinyl, but they won't be nasty scratches, just relatively light needle scuffs and sleeve removal marks, they will be noticeable but won't detract from play too much. Cover will show signs of storage/ ageing, e.g., creasing, slight folding, spinewear, ringwear or sticker tears etc... The record will not be trashed!!
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 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.
