IF BIDDING FROM OUTSIDE THE UK THEN PLEASE NOTE THAT I USE EBAY'S GSP FOR POSTING. THESE COSTS CAN BE HIGH. IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO PAY THESE PRICES THEN PLEASE DO NOT BID. However I am willing to listen to requests to post outside of Ebay through signed-for and tracked. I would recommend using Ebay though as they cover taxes, customs lost items etc. Europe postings will cost £15 for a single item if I send them.
Unfortunately I need to cash in on some of my record collection to help fund my retirement so..........................
For auction here is a UK copy of the Roy Harper LP 'Flat, Baroque and Berserk' issued on the Harvest label SHVL 766. It is a first pressing with NO EMI on the label. Matrix numbers are SHVL 766 A-2 and SHVL 766 B-2..
The gatefold laminated sleeve is in a VG+ condition with some laminate creases and some slight edge and corner wear. There is evidence of ringwear on the back cover. However is no writing and no stickers.
The inner sleeve is the standard Harvest one and appears to be intact
The vinyl is in a VG+ condition. The vinyl looks worse than it plays and there are some visible marks. It actually plays very nicely with hardly any background noise and Roy's singing comes across very clearly. There are the occasional clicks which can occur even on a perfect record. in the spoken part you can hear some quite low-level background noise to be honest.
The labels are devoid of stickers and pen marks with some spindle marks on each side. The spindle holes look excellent with just a very little wear. There looks like some blemish marks on the side 2 label but I cannot tell what they are for sure.
Please bid with confidence as I have a 100% positive feedback rating.
I am willing to post multiple items abroad which will be tracked and signed-for. Payments for this method go direct through Paypal as Ebay's GSP does not cater for multiple item sales unfortunately.
I try to adhere as closely as possible to the Record Collector Magazine grading system which is shown below as a guide. I do ad + and - to gradings for intermediate conditions. Any record described as 'Mint' will mean 'Unplayed'.
RECORD COLLECTORS GRADING SYSTEM
Mint (M) The record itself 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 marked as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint. Excellent (EX) 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 (VG) 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 (G) Te 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 (F) 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 (P) The record will not play properly due to scratched, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing Bad (B) The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-fillerprice rating
