ALL RECORDS ARE TESTED ON MY TRUSTY AIWA TURNTABLE AND GOOD QUALITY JVC AMP . THIS DOES ONLY HAVE A STD BASS AND TREBLE CONTROL . I LIKE TO USE THIS AS IT PICKS UP EVEN THE VERY SLIGHTEST BIT OF NOISE SO I KNOW I CAN DESCRIBE EVERY LP CORRECTLY ETC . I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY THAT PLAYED ON BETTER OR TOP QUALITY SYSTEMS WITH GREATER AND MORE TECHNICAL SOUND CONTROL ETC , THESE RECORDS WILL SOUND A LOT BETTER THAN I HAVE DESCRIBED . I KNOW THIS BECAUSE I OFTEN GIVE RECORDS ANOTHER QUICK PLAY ON THE FIRST COUPLE OF TRACKS ON MY PERSONAL TOP QUALITY PIONEER SYSTEM AND I DO FIND THAT MOST OF ANY NOISES LIKE CRACKLE ETC ARE MUCH MUCH QUIETER , SOME EVEN HARDLY SOUND AT ALL . I TEST EVERY RECORD AND FIND THAT MY AIWA WILL COVER MANY OTHER SIMILAR SET UPS THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE , I DID WANT TO JUST POINT THIS OUT , THANK YOU . I WILL BE LISTING 5 RECORDS WHICH ARE STILL IN THE SHRINK WRAP WHICH I GOT FROM NEW , ALL HAVE BEEN OPENED DOWN THE OPENING EDGE BY MYSELF AND THE RECORDS PLAYED ONCE ONLY ! THANK YOU .
Here we have a lovely and now quite rare copy of The King's Pistol Long Was The Road , Dark Was The Night . It is from 2015 and it is a ltd edition of 250 only , it is on the Duel Real Records label DR001 . I have put a ? in the heading as i was assuming that this was an LP , but i must say that it plays ( and is stated on the labels ) at 45 rpm . I have put used , but will say that i got this from new and although it is still in the shrink wrap , i have opened it down the opening edge side . I can also confirm that this record has been played once only . Personally , i would rather have a record that has been played once and described to me as plays perfect , because as we all know , some records even from new ( ie still sealed ) can arrive with faults which obviously can't be seen beforehand , so this way , at least you know that you are getting a records that has only been played once , but more importantly , you know it plays perfectly so you won't have any problems . Obviously for this reason , i am not going to give my usual detailed descriptions of the record or cover , just a brief one . As expected from just the one previous play , it plays perfectly , but please , as you know , do bare in mind that no vinyl record ever plays perfectly noise free , even from new . The cover , as i say is still in it's original shrink wrap though has been carefully opened down the opening edge only . As i can see , all appears to be fine , though obviously it is hard to tell with it still being in the shrink wrap and all i can see is a normal little , small and very light storage wear on the corner tip ends only . All in all a lovely and now quite rare and very collectable example . Thank you very much for your time and interest and happy bidding .
Postage prices shown are for the UK . All items are sent via Royal Mail 1st class std post , unless otherwise stated in the listing . Please note that any bids that exceed £20 GBP ( inclusive ) , will be sent via 1st class recorded in the UK and International signed for ( only 7" singles are available to post for Europe , no LP's outside the UK sorry ) in Europe , this is due to Royal Mail now only covering up to £20 on standard deliveries. Please be aware that the extra cost for this WILL be added on to the base rates that are shown if this is the case , thank you . Please do feel free to contact me for signed for extra charges prior to bidding . Please can you wait for my invoice before paying if i have to change the invoice to signed for , thank you . Please also note that I always obtain proper proof of postage when I post any items .
Please note, all records are packed in proper pro card mailers with a minimum of 3 stiffeners for LP’s and 2 for 7" singles ( more if i think they are needed ) . CD’s , Cassettes and DVD’s are sent in strong bubble wrap envelopes. These are also taped with brown parcel tape along all edges and seams for added protection.
Please note that whilst I haven’t increased my postage charges for a very long time now , this now other recent price increase , has seen me , unfortunately , have to put a slight increase on my overall charges . This is also topped with the rise in cost for quality card mailers , jiffy bags , stiffeners and Ebays new 10% extra fee for postage costs to all sellers , but I do obviously want to still remain competitive and still offer my usual top quality service . Please also note that I now send ALL LP’s with a minimum of 3 stiffeners on all none GF LP's and all 7" singles with a minimum of 2 stiffeners . I do not agree with making money out of postage from people who are good enough to buy an item from me and would never enter into this practice , as you can see by my charges on all my items , after all the fees and costs etc , i never make anything from it and wouldn't want to , in fact in the end , i actually lose money on postage . For a quick example , i now charge £4.25p ( as from 25/3/19 ) to post an LP 1st class in the UK , you can check on the stamp and see that i paid £3.55p ( also as from 25/3/19 new RM charges ) , now you may well be thinking , hang on why haven't i charged £3.55p to you , when i say i do not make any money from postage ? . The reason for this is , there are many other costs involved with postage for me . Ebay firstly will charge me 10% of the postage i charge , in this case 43p , take this off what i charge and that comes to £3.82p which leaves 27p over . I have just topped up my mailers and stiffeners and i paid £28.00p for 50 mailers and 100 stiffeners , i also have to buy extra stiffeners because i send my LP's out with at least 3 ( but quite often 4 ) stiffeners which also are not cheap , so as you can see 1 mailer and 2 stiffeners cost me 56p , add on the price of another 2 stiffeners ( max ) plus also take into account Paypals percentages , who now i have just noticed have started to take 20p per item that are sold on Ebay plus their usual charges which craftily they work out on the whole cost of the deal , including the postage ! and other things like petrol etc . I am sorry for having to explain this , but i just thought you would like to see that any extra has gone as soon as the deal is done , so you can clearly see , i do not make any money at all from postage , in fact it's clear to see , i actually lose money , i would estimate that i actually lose about 55p to 65p just on postage , i totally understand this is my problem and no one is bothered about this in the slightest , but i just wanted to point out these facts and show you how i am not one of the many people who actually charge more than this for postage and don't even send the record in a proper mailer etc , please do see my feedback on my packing etc , thank you again for your time in reading this .
