This auction is for the following item:
7” Vinyl Single – Demo/Promotion Copy:
Shirley Ellis: Soul Time/Waitin’, CBS 7463, Release Date: 10th September 1971, UK Release, Plain White Sleeve.
A rare and hard-to-find demo/promo copy of this Northern Soul classic.
Graded: VG (Very Good)
A-side: The label has a small amount of writing on it. The vinyl is clean, bright and shiny, but does have one obvious scratch running across it (see photo). However, I have played the track through and this scratch has no noticeable effect on sound quality (no audible ‘clicks’ etc). Overall sound quality is EX (Excellent) with very little crackle or other surface noise.
B-side: The vinyl is clean, bright and shiny, but does have a number of scuffs and scratches (see photo). However, I have played the track through and these have no noticeable effect on sound quality (no audible ‘clicks’ etc). Overall quality, though, is VG (Very Good) as there is some light surface crackle in a few places, but particularly the run-in and run-out grooves at the beginning and end of the track.
Please note this item will be posted using Royal Mail Special Delivery.
UK bidders only please.
A Note on Gradings
All my used records are graded using the UK Record Collector magazine grading system. This system does not use + or – symbols (e.g. VG+ or EX–), or terms such as “Near Mint”; it uses only Mint (M), Excellent (EX), Very Good (VG) and Good (G) for collectable records. I am continually surprised by the number of Ebay sellers who claim to use this system, but who then fill their listings with + and – symbols!
Please also note that (unless otherwise stated) all my used records are aurally graded and are always graded very conservatively. I do not knowingly sell any records that stick, jump or do not otherwise play properly and also try to list all obvious faults to ensure buyers are happy with their purchases, not disappointed as I have been on more than one occasion when buying used records on Ebay. In fact, I know from personal experience that my VG is better than a lot of other sellers’ EX+! I have sold over 200 records on Ebay since 2001 and have not yet had a complaint about my gradings.
