I have supplied  supersize photo's of various aspects hopefully so you can assess for yourself the  condition of this UNCOMMON LP.

There are NO visible scratches or BUT LIGHT SPIDERWEB LINES ( paper scuffs) in sunlight are visible, but are non sounding. (see final 2 photo's taken in sunlight)

Yes there are spasmodic pops or static crackles quietly in background of quietest playing sections as per all vinyl (especially as it is nearly forty years old), but nothing  repetitive. There are no rotational spindle marks on the label.

Record came to me obviously cared for and I would think very infrequently played. However I HAVE  wet washed it  it twice with a record cleaner, then treated with LAST "power cleaner" and LAST "record preservative" (said to protect from playing wear for upto 200 'plays'). Most audiophiles such as yourselves are probably already using this or similar, I have just saved you the time and expense.

The cover is suffering only from some slight bottom corner light bends.  ALL seams are clean and no signs of splitting. Small bottom corner discoloration and small rounding, (see photo's), except for those small wear and aging signs, its a little ripper!! as we would say in OZ.

The reverse is slightly yellowed .

The original EMI inner sleeve has  some wrinkles from living inside the cover but is otherwise good.  However just having cleaned it so well, I am supplying a more modern archive quality sleeve with anti stat and no scratching properties.  This is from the modern audiophile company Mobile Fidelity (MFSL) and is standard issue with their vinyl pressings.

International Buyers – Please Note:

 

 

• Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer’s responsibility.

   

• Please check with your country’s customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.

In other words I will not discount any stated sale price on Customs declarations as that is illegal.

TO BE PROPERLY INSURED, I WILL NOT UNDER DECLARE THE SALE PRICE OF THE ITEM,

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, Germany and possibly Malaysia at least, probably more, has this problem I believe, ) 

In other words, buyers asking me to understate the customs declaration on this item need not bid, as I flatly refuse under international law to do so.  (Last Buyer who did that gave neg feedback (it was retracted obviously) as they thought it was my fault they had taxes to pay(?????)

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

This listing in Australian dollars because I don't live in US or UK, and if you don't, WHAT A WASTE OF DOUBLE CONVERSIONS THAT WOULD BE!!!

The keen starting price offers a great opportunity to own this great recording at a reasonable starting price.

Combined postage with other items closing this week welcome. Please ask.
