SAX 2393 T/S label 1ED Klemperer Midsummer Nights Dream
Description
SOUND SAMPLE AUTO STARTED WHEN YOU OPENED THE PAGE, TURN UP THE VOLUME... and have a READ .
More collectible LP records coming starting New years day will finish same time as this one.
Firstly most other SAX 2393 I find in historical sales that bother to give reference to Stampers on the dead wax, mostly all quote them as being YAX 539-6 and YAX 540-8.
THIS ONE is pressed from an Earlier Stamper than most others quote, being
YAX 539-6 and YAX 540-5.
It also has the earlier inner dust jacket with the soft grey wording "Important , take good care etc" all the ones quoting the other matrix codes tend to have the more heavily printed later EMI dust jackets with "Important" in a heavy grey text box.
Other matrix markers on this are on side 1 "1" at 9 o clock and "1.1" at 3pm (could be a poor M) as side 2 just has "M" at 3 O'clock
NM Minus LP / NM Minus cover
Full replay, THIS is visibly and audibly very clean, After the quiet intros on both sides, I assure you the rest of the LP replays as cleanly as the sample, only a few paper scuffs visible in Sunlight only. Photo's taken in full sunlight and flash, and nothing is visible to me or the camera. Only a few of the softest pips generally on this lp
COVER CONDITION NM Minus Only a very few small marks on the cover, NO RINGWEAR and NO REAR CARD Yellowing. I think the laminate has slightly yellowed over the predominantly white artwork, but the unlaminated flipback rear shows no signs of yellowing.
Only minor blemishes are-
1. Minor corner rounding hardly there at all.
2. bottom flipback near spline is 'bent' from factory I would suggest, as their are some corresponding ripples in the same corner white rear card near the credit to the printing firm.( SEE photo 6 .)
LP CONDITION Near Mint Minus SEE Photo's,Has just a few faint spider web scuffs only in sunlight, play test has only infrequent pips mostly near the quiet edge intros, as per normal vinyl replay BEAUTIFUL, AND THE DYNAMICS ARE GREAT
SOUND SAMPLE GUIDE First 3 minutes 4 seconds is of opening side 1, then I trfr to the side TWO at 3 minutes 25 seconds, WHICH IS THE REMAINDER OF THE 7 MINUTE 14 second SAMPLE IN TOTAL.
BE aware the sound sample talked about IS A LOW SAMPLE RATE AND accentuates treble (Hence more static crackle that you DON'T hear through your Hi Fi) and is low quality, but you get the idea.
Yes I have pretty much fully test played this after professionally washing it,
ITEMS are located in AUSTRALIA, see further down for Australia Post Rates to your destination!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Australian buyers can pay in AUD,
UK Buyers BE AWARE !! Post limit of 4.50GBP as stipulated by ebay, (even for overseas sellers) GOOD NEWS!! unlike other sellers I will only charge the 4GBP to Post it to you BUT BAD NEWS..... It will arrive via the same method as if it was posted in UK, by SURFACE MAIL, and as that involves a slow ship via China and other indirect world zones it may take upto 3 MONTHS to get to you. There is an option on your UK invoice for Economy mail, which will be by Air Mail and therefore the regular 10-15 days, SO UNLESS you want to get it VERY SLOWLY.... I would strongly recommend paying the optional invoice amount of GBP13.00

- Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer’s responsibility.
- Please check with your country’s customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.
NO..... I will not reduce the stated value of the LP on any customs declarations, Australia post bases its insurance on the declared value, so if I understate it I am at risk of losing its value should it go missing, You as a buyer are covered by paypal protection, so bid accordingly.
NO .... Paypal does not cover me if its not insured, I know I have looked into the situation EXTENSIVELY!!
RULES FOR BIDDING
DOES ANYBODY READ THIS?? I THINK NOT BASED ON RECENT BIDDING ACTIVITY ON MY ITEMS!! PLEASE READ...
If you have hidden feedback, or
less than 98% positive, or
less than 50 recent visible positives, (that's NEW EBAY registrations with little activity yet, that have proven your good buying habits) THEN -
I would appreciate email contact first to establish your credentials. Credentials mean that I need to know you will be paying with VERIFIED PAYPAL account, and I of course will only be mailing to that verified address. DON'T EXPECT TO GET MY PERMISSION IN THE LAST 2 HOURS OF BIDDING, DO IT BEFOREHAND. (Buyers who have had trouble free transactions with me already qualify of course, regardless of the feedback status)
Winning bids unpaid after 7 days will be reported as non paying bidder and item opened to second chance offer.
HAPPY BIDDING, QUESTIONS WELCOME
Check for Australia post cost and access to your country by emailing me or go to their web address and check it out http://www1.auspost.com.au/pac/
Combined postage with other items welcome Please ask.
Combined purchases over $100AUD (60GBP) recieve FREE packing (it pays to Bulk Buy!!!)
IF insurance is required on any Missionselit purchases please be aware I CAN ONLY INSURE BASED ON THE CUSTOMS DECLARATION STATED VALUE, PLEASE BE AWARE SHOULD YOU BE LIABLE FOR ANY CUSTOMS ON A SECOND HAND LP IN YOUR COUNTRY, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT PAYMENT (UK, Sth Korea, Germanyand possibly Malaysia has this problem I believe). The need for me to cover insurance for any loss in the postal service means I will not under any circumstances understate the customs declaration value, for the above reasons.
