Description

The experience of buying records on Ebay is ruined if, when they arrive, you discover that they are either not in the condition stated or have been damaged in the post! For this reason I describe all my items in detail, and only post using strong sturdy packaging. They are also from a non-smoking and pet-free home.
I accept returns and offer a full refund if you are not happy with your purchase.

The Smiths - 'Best... I' European LP - 1992

Catalogue no. 450990327-1 - WEA Records

The 'Best I and II' LP pressings on vinyl are becoming very difficult to obtain and were clearly pressed in relatively few quantities in comparison to the other formats at the time. This is a 1992 German/European pressing of the album, which was not pressed on vinyl in the UK or US and only appeared in this format in Europe, as here, as well as Brazil and, apparently, Croatia (though I have never managed to track down a copy of the latter). It is a rare example in that it has been looked after particularly well and is highly collectable in this condition (see below).

The vinyl and labels are in strong excellent condition, with only light surface marks becoming apparent in a few places if held to the light. The record appears to have been played very little and retains its glossy appearance. The outer sleeve is also in strong excellent condition, with only light corner wear and rubbing to the edges in a few places. There are no creases, and no writing or damage with no seam splitting to the edges which remain sharp. Please see the accompanying photos for more detail; note that the 'Ebay ID' lettering is just on the pictures and not on the item itself.

All my auctions start at 1P and have NO RESERVE. They are all 100% genuine, original versions. Some are in mint/new condition and some are used; all will go to the highest bidder. I offer a money-back guarantee if anything is described incorrectly. Postage and Packing is 2.50 in the UK for untracked and uninsured standard postage, this is subsidised by myself and the actual costs to me will usually be higher. Please do consider paying the extra 70p for tracked postage since there is nothing that can be done to find out what happened if the parcel is lost when standard postage is chosen. Shipping costs are greater for overseas buyers, but still subsidised and very good value; please check prices by using the options above or feel free to ask. Extra items are sent at no extra postage charge to the buyer (see below). I always take great care to package items well with strong mailing materials.

See my other auctions for related rare items here. If multiple auctions are won at the same time (within a week), I will charge only the postage cost for the heaviest item and pay the remaining postage myself. This is the case wherever you live.
