	£		490
	$		649

MEGA RARE ( MAY ONE OF ONLY A HANDFULL ) SOLID CENTRE SOLD IN UK DISC ONE 1969 TRANSITIONAL STEREO STICKERED ISSUE....L@@K

NOT ONLY IS THIS A SUPERB TOP COPY OF A MUCH MUCH RARER STEREO PRESSING AND STILL WITH IT'S CORRECT WHITE INNERS ( AND with blue lyric sheet of course )  BUT ALSO JUST A BIT SPECIAL WITH :-

A) IMPOSSIBLY RARE SOLID CENTRE STEREO WITH SOLD IN UK TEXT FOR DISC ONE

B) CROSS OVER DISC TWO ALSO SOLID CENTRE BUT WITHOUT SOLD IN UK TEXT

C) INCREDIBLY RARE FACTORY STEREO STICKERED MONO SLEEVE

D) NO TAX STAMP ON EITHER DISC ONLY IN THE RUN OUT GROOVE

  ONLY A HANDFULL OF THESE COPIES MAY EXIST AND AS THIS IS NOW THE THIRD COPY THAT I HAVE SEEN IN 40 YEARS I CAN NOW CONFIDENTLY EXPLAIN THEIR ORIGIN....

IN 1969 EMI WERE FINALLY CEASING MONO PRESSINGS. HOWEVER IT IS CLEAR THEY HAD A FEW MONO SLEEVES STILL IN STOCK AND RATHER THAN TRASH THEM THEY SIMPLY STICKERED THEM WITH ONE OF THE THREE SO FAR KNOWN EMI FACTORY STEREO STICKERS. AT THE SAME TIME THE SOLD IN UK TEXT WAS BEING DROPPED FROM THE LABELS AND SOLID CENTRES HAD BECOME THE NORM. HOWEVER WHEN RE-PRESSING DISC ONE THEY MUST HAVE, EITHER BY MISTAKE OR AGAIN SIMPLY TO USE UP OLD STOCK, USED STEREO LABELS WITH THE SOLD IN U.K. TEXT

UP UNTIL NOW STEREO'S , UNLIKE MONO'S , HAD ONLY BEEN AVAILABLE IN PUSH OUT CENTRE FORM AND THIS IS THE ONLY KNOWN INSTANCE OF A STEREO DISC WITH THE SOLD IN UK TEXT IN SOLID CENTRE FORM ( IF YOU DISCOUNT THE 80'S/90'S RE-ISSUE WHICH WAS DONE FOR SOME KIND OF RETRO EFFECT ) AND SO FAR HAS ONLY BEEN FOUND FOR DISC ONE AND NOT FOR DISC TWO

DOMESTIC UK POSTAGE NOTE: FOR UK BIDDERS  ALL ITEMS  WILL NOW BE SENT VIA 2ND CLASS RECORDED/SIGNED FOR DELIVERY AS PER MY LISTING AS THIS IS TO PREVENT FRAUDULANT CLAIMS OF NON RECEIPT

FOR INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS PLS SEE MY FURTHER NOTE BELOW 

NON UK BUYERS PLEASE NOTE ...MY RETURNS POLICY ONLY APPLICABLE TO UK..RETURNS OUTSIDE UK BUYER WILL HAVE TO COVER ALL POSTAGE COSTSFurthermore international bidders please also note that due to ebays new "buyer protection " policy many sellers now refuse to sell internationally anymore. I am not one of those sellers yer but please note I do now reserve the right to refuse to complete a sale to any international bidder that may have low or bad feedback or for any other reason and this is especially so if the item sells for over GBP 100, like I say this is purely a result of ebay/paypals new policy that make it now even harder for sellers to  trade safely internationally. Please bare this in mind if you win an item but find that it has been offered first instead to a domestic UK Bidder.

FOR BIDDERS WITH ZERO FEEDBACK THIS IS ALSO VERY IMPORTANT...   I have recently been the victim of serveral spurious bids from several different members (usually based in the Russian Federation). Please note that if you win any of my items and have zero feedback I will ask you for immediate payment or for you to email and immediately confirm that you were a genuine bidder. Failiure to meet either of those critiera will result in the item being  offered to the next highest bidder without further delay. thank you. 

ALL MY RECORDS ARE USUALLY SOLD ON VISUAL GRADINGS ONLY, THEREFORE, WITH THE SINGULAR EXCEPT ION OF THOSE RARE OCCASSIONS WHERE I DO STATE THEY HAVE BEEN PLAY GRADED, AS ALL DISCS ARE 2ND HAND ANY PLAYING DEFECTS ARE THEREFORE CAVIAT EMPTOR AND SO NON REFUNDABLE. I ONLY REFUND  WHERE AN ACTUAL GRADING OF MINE IS DISPUTED     

Dont forget to take a look at my other items. Please feel free to contact me with any queries you may have.

                                             ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I ONLY DO A COUPLE OF RUNS A WEEK TO THE POST OFFICE BUT MY ITEMS ARE ALWAYS DISPATCHED WELL WITHIN ONE CALENDAR WEEK OF PAYMENT BEING RECEIVED. I APOLOGISE IN ADVANCE TO THOSE BUYERS WHO SEEM TO EXPECT THEIR ITEM TO ARRIVE THE NEXT DAY, IF YOU WANT TO CHECK WHEN AN ITEM WAS SENT JUST PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME AND I WILL BE VERY HAPPY TO TELL YOU!! (SOME PEOPLE DO MAKE YOU LAUGH, FOR ITEMS I BUY I ONLY NORMALLY GET CONCERNED AFTER A COUPLE OF WEEKS AND EVEN AFTER THAT THEN ONLY POLIETELY ENQUIRE IF AND WHEN THE ITEM WAS SENT).

                                   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

PAYMENTS BY PAYPAL ARE PREFERRED BUT I ALSO ACCEPT OTHER METHODS. I ALSO POST WORLDWIDE (PLS APPLY FOR RATES) BUT DUE TO A PROBLEM WITH A DISREPUTABLE BUYER IN JAPAN (PIGGIESSS - I AM HAPPY TO NAME THEM) , FOR ALL PAYMENTS MADE VIA PAYPAL THE ITEM WILL ONLY BE SENT BOTH TO THE UK AND WORLDWIDE BY RECORDED OR INTERNATIONAL SIGNED FOR DELIVERY. THIS IS TO ELIMINATE THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY ATTEMPT TO CLAIM BACK THE PAYMENT VIA PAYPAL EVEN AFTER ACTUALLY HAVING RECEIVED THE ITEM.

THIS OBVIOUSLY HAS HAD THE RESULT OF INCREASING MY COSTS FOR POSTING AND PACKING AND I AM VERY SORRY FOR THIS BUT PAYPAL OFFER NO PROTECTION FOR SELLERS UNLESS THERE IS PROOF OF DELIVERY!! PROOF OF POSTING WOULD SEEM INSUFFICIENT TO THEM AND I HAVE FOUND THIS OUT THE HARD WAY..

DUE TO THE BEHAVIOUR OF THIS SAME BUYER PAYPAL PAYMENTS WILL ALSO NOT BE ACCEPTED FROM BUYERS WHO DO NOT ALLOW THEIR FEEDBACK TO BE READ,

….EUROPE INTERNATIONAL SIGNED FOR MAIL COSTS ARE USUALLY GBP 9.99 FOR A SINGLE LP AND FOR USA/REST OF WORLD IT IS USUALLY GBP 13.99 FOR A SINGLE AND GBP 16.99 FOR A DOUBLE LP ...COMBINED MAIL IS AVAILABLE
