SXL 6404 NM De Burgos 1st label ED3 LISTEN ! Midsummer Night's Dream Mendelssohn

Description

SOUND SAMPLE AUTO STARTED WHEN YOU OPENED THE PAGE, TURN UP THE VOLUME... and have a READ.

 ED3. and first label for this edition first issued 1968   

Summary condition

Cover NM no seam splits, cover with a couple of small edge creases (see photo 9)   but no ringwear, and a very clean white rear unlaminated back

Lp NM. just a little opening edge static crackle, which goes away after the first minute or two. Looks absolutely clean, not even many spiderline scuffs in sunlight, and only one or two  spindle trails on the labels, nevertheless there is some static light crackle more in opening quiet passages, that is why the sound sample is of the opening few minutes of both sides. maybe a really good professional clean would sort out the opening crackle, as I have not done anything other than a dust wipe, because it looked so clean.

UK DECCA pressing. First recorded 1968  there is therefore  NO ED1 or ED2 available, as the decca sxl label went to ED3 for issues after 6369 , This LP has the wording of an ED2, but has no groove,

PLAYLIST ( New Philharmonia with Ambrosian singers)

1.  Mendelssohn Complete incidental music to a Misummer Nights Dream   conductor De Burgos

SOUND SAMPLE GUIDE First 1 minutes 46 seconds is of opening side 1, the opening minute has a few faint crackles, but the rest of the record plays much cleaner

 side TWO STARTS at 2 minutes 3 seconds,  AND PLAYS UNTIL SAMPLE COMPLETION WHICH IS THE REMAINDER OF THE 5 MINUTE 2 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  fully test played this without washing it for the sampling

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

Bulk post only works after the 3rd LP in a Package, (500 to 1000gm parcel) So extra LP's are cost effective and as I have thousands of LP's even if you have a single win, I am sure we can find some candidates for Fixed price listings to get some post advantage from bulk .

  • 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.
