Description

Affinity - Affinity LP
Vertigo 6360 004
(Original UK pressing)
1970
Condition :- Cover looks (Excellent Plus) >>  It is in really great condition, and certainly one of my favourite Vertigo Swirl LP's. There is a bit of wear on the top-right corner, and some wear to the top and bottom edges but not too bad. On the inside of the gatefold there is a tiny crease, but minor and in the centre, and fractional wear on the gatefold inside corners, but tiny. I am being very fussy with the grading, and in my next paragraph I shall explain why
This is the ORIGINAL UK 1970 Pressing, NOT that DODGY counterfeit that is around which you can see here -

https://www.discogs.com/release/15936509-Affinity-Affinity 
Fortunately that counterfeit made a mistake of missing one of the Zero's out in it's Matrix Numbers. They put 636004 instead of 6360004. Which you can see here https://www.discogs.com/release/15936509-Affinity-Affinity/image/SW1hZ2U6NDg4Mzk0ODU= There are other differences also, especially with the cover, which they could not recreate close enough. They have banned that from sale on Discogs thankfully
My Original I am selling here has Matrix Numbers as follows on the dead wax

Side A = 6360004 1Y//2   1  1  4 Side B = 6  3  6 0 00    4 B ∇ 1      (then two digits that look like an)  L 1      5

I have added photos of close-ups of the matrix numbers  in my gallery photos   Condition :- Vinyl Record looks (Excellent) >> Really nice and clean, except for a very feint wispy line across Side A - Track 2, but is virtually invisible in ordinary daylight. So very feint and does not affect play and not a scratch, There is a few spindle-mark lines on both sides of the centre holes on the labels, so been played a few times, but doesn't look like too many, There is a tiny bit of damage to the swirl-side label on side A near the middle, but nothing major. It plays great to. I have owned this for over 30 years. One of my first vertigo LP's I ever owned, but as I am parting with more and more of my own record collection, then it's time to part with this to. It also has the Original Vertigo Swirl inlay which is in Mint Minus condition, been very well looked after

__________________________________________________________________________ <<<< (IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ) >>>>
(1) ** All the Vinyl's I sell/auction are visually strictly graded by myself under bright bulb-light in my house. NOT graded under sun-light!! ** 
(2) ** The condition grading I use are either - Mint > Mint Minus > Excellent Plus > Excellent > Excellent Minus > Very Good Plus > Very Good, etc.. I do NOT use the USA Goldmine grading system - which doesn't use Excellent grading, as their grading system jumps down from Mint Minus to a Very Good Plus, as you'll notice on Discogs site. I am a UK seller from England, and I use the UK Record Collector Price Guide grading system. **
(3) ** Any VAT/TAX which countries in the European Union (EU) and the Rest Of The World have to pay on items bought from UK sellers (such as myself) - Must be paid. Please don't ask me to break the law by undervaluing any item I am selling/auctioning on Ebay, just so you can escape paying VAT/TAX, as the answer will be NO (with absolutely NO exceptions). Also, I have to insure each Vinyl record when posting them to the buyers, so it has to state the full price in order to validate any claim I may have to make if it got lost, stolen or damaged, which protects both myself and the buyers. The way in which VAT/TAX collection for importation/exportation of items sold through Ebay has changed, due to recent laws. ** __________________________________________________________________________
All the records will be sent by (Royal mail Special delivery) in the UK and (Royal mail International Tracked & Signed For) for countries in the EU and the rest of the world. Also I parcel up the records very well with non-bendable strong packaging and two cardboard stiffeners. Cruciform style packaging which will protect the record properly. I never use those bendable envelopes. I know how important that is to collectors, and I also separate the vinyl in it's inlay sleeve from the cover and place it on top of the cover when posting it, which also prevents damage to the cover. __________________________________________________________________________
