Hello! This is an auction for a copy of a UK pressing of the famous album Electric Ladyland by The Jimi Hendrix Experience on Polydor, catalogue number 2657 012. This has the quite sought-after infamous "nude cover" with multiple naked women on it that caused a bit of controversy overseas upon release. This copy is in stunning shape... The records appear to have been barely played at all, with almost nothing in the way of scuffing and scratching to them, and sound great. There does appear to be a slight warp to record one, but this doesn't affect play whatsoever and is quite hard to notice if you aren't aware of it. The cover also has quite minimal wear to it, with only a couple minor creases and some scuffing to speak of, and even has that like-new creak to it when one opens the gatefold (which is why I didn't fully open it for the photos). My guess would be that somebody bought this more as a collector's piece for the cover, played it once or twice, and left it shelved. If it weren't for that slight and overall inconsequential warp on record one and the few small creases and scuffing to the cover, this copy would be pretty much perfect. As it is, this is a fantastic copy of this release. The records are in beautiful shape. The cover is pretty clean and still creaks when the gatefold is opened, has pretty sharp corners, and even still has some thin slivers of either laminate or cardboard left hanging on the edges from when it was first made. The "MADE IN ENGLAND" inner sleeves with this copy aren't even split. Basically, the kind of wear on display here is the kind of stuff you'd find if you just took a record out of the shrink. You'd be hard pressed to find a nicer copy of this release, and if you want to add a copy of this to your collection, this would be an excellent copy to go for. Good luck!

Shipping:
I am sorry to say that I only offer shipping to addresses that are within the United States.

Shipping is $4.99 via USPS Media Mail. I do combine shipping costs, so if you win multiple auctions from me, wait for an invoice.

Note that I will only combine shipping for items bought over a two week period. I will hold off on filing a claim if you tell me you're waiting to bid on some items from me that are ending the next week, but I won't extend that courtesy to the week after that. Unless you contact me beforehand about the matter, I will file a claim if an item isn't paid for after two days.
Due to my job, my weekly window for shipping items out is rather limited. That's why I have 10 business days shipping and handling. I don't always need all that time, but my schedule is restrictive, so sometimes I really do take that long to ship an item out.
