Description
Please also note - that this week I will have LOADS of 45s & LPs all ending March 31st. Of course, I will have my usual listings of Prog/Psych/Jazz/Blues LPs ending this day, but also some EXCEPTIONALLY rare Reggae/Ska, Freakbeat, Psych, and Rock & Roll 45s aswell!!!! So an absolutely INCREDIBLE set of listings (LPs and 45s!) will all appear during the week - all ending March 31st!!!!
Lastly - this isn't your average listing of 45s. There is NO dross AT ALL, and EVERY 45 is either SERIOUSLY RARE, in SUPERB condition, and many are both! This is just one 45 from this collection, so good luck if you decide to bid - and please take a look at this AMAZING item below:-
RARITY:- This is undoubtedly the RAREST Shadows EP ever made. It is estimated that only 1000 copies were even made, and out of those only 500 were on the TRI CENTRED label (1st Press) and 500 on the ROUND CENTRED label (2nd Press). Thankfully here were have the FAR more desirable 1st Pressing with the TRI Centre. This EP was only ever released in South Africa ONLY - and is now almost IMPOSSIBLE to find. And take a good look at the VERY few previous copies of this EP that have turned up for sale if you can. Because this one is in way WAY better condition than any of those, and the record is BRILLIANT. SUPER RARE and almost impossible to locate now......
COUNTRY:- SOUTH AFRICA
MONO/STEREO:- MONO
PRESSING:- 1ST PRESSING - TRI CENTRE
ARTIST:- THE SHADOWS
TITLE:- THE SHADOWS AT THE COLOSSEUM
CAT NUMBER:- SEGJ 11014
LABEL:- COLUMBIA
DATE:- 1960
SIGNS OF PLAY:- MODERATE
LABELS:- EX+
RECORD GRADING:- The record is in BRILLIANT condition! It has NO scratches, only 2 or 3 MEGA light hairlines, NO scufflines, only 2 or 3 absolutely ULTRA light surface traces, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK! The record plays with NO pops, NO distortion, NO jumps, NO sticks, NO groovewear, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL! The record must grade Very Good++ if not better - and is a very VERY nice record indeed, and VERY strictly graded!
SLEEVE:- ORIGINAL 1st Press Picture Sleeve + Flipbacks & Lithographed finish. And this is why most copies of this EP are usually trashed - because this cover was NEVER laminated, but lithographed and finished in varnish. Which meant if the cover was badly treated it cracked and flaked. But this one is VERY nice indeed. The cover front is SUPERB with only VERY minimal creasing that does NOT break the colour (apart from a couple of faint traces to the bottom left). Typically the cover back has some varnish discolouration to the top flipback, and a small touch of surface wear to the bottom flipback middle. But NO splits, NO rips, NO tears, and NO writing! Take a good look at my pictures. This cover is way WAY better than almost any other cover for this EP that has previously turned up for sale, and is very VERY hard to find like this now. Easily grades Very Good+ if not better - and this definitely one EP you wont be seeing again anytime soon!DEFECTS OUTSIDE OF THE GRADE GIVEN:- N/A

Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items (I always try my very best to describe everything exactly!) - PLEASE REMEMBER to contact with me FIRST, if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one! I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem! This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy! Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem. Thanks again - Graham @ XXXRecords.
PLEASE NOTE - Private feedback bidders must consult me first prior to bidding - due to previous problems regarding non-payment, and non-receipt. MY POSTAGE UNDERCHARGE GUARANTEE TO ALL BUYERS (I always undercharge on postage!):- Due to UK Royal Mail's obscene price increases this year - I have had no choice but to increase postage charges a little. Until this year - I had kept them exactly the same since I joined ebay back in 2002. However this years price increases have been so obscene, that I have had no choice but to increase my postage charges for the first time ever. However PLEASE NOTE - my absolute 100% guarantee to you as a buyer - is that I will ALWAYS undercharge postage on everything I send out. Even after the increases, I am still charging you the buyer LESS than I am being charged myself. On each package I send out - the price is clearly stated on the front of the package (please check it when you recieve it!). I also do NOT charge for packaging costs - ONLY for postal costs! And should you find that I have overcharged you postage in ANY way - I will refund DOUBLE the difference. THAT IS MY 100% POSTAL GUARANTEE FOR EACH AND EVERY BUYER! No buyer EVER deserves to be overcharged on postage - and on my listings, I'll make sure they are ALWAYS undercharged. Any questions - please ask!price rating
