Beatles - Abbey Road - Export pressing - secondpressing

Before I start the auction there are some general remarks.

1.

Should you not be satisfied with the item, then I will take it back and I will return the money after I have received the item back. I request you not to leave negative feedback, because the item will be taken back.

2.

I charge the normal price for postage and package. I will send the item by registered mail. The difference I will pay by myself. The reason for this is that I find it safer to send only by registered mail. If you do not want the item sent by registered mail, then it is OKAY, but you will be responsible fro the lost of the item, damage and so on. In that case I cannot take any responsibility, because the item could be sent by registered mail.

The postage will take place in material, which has especially been designed for sending of the vinyl.

3.

The gradation is according to the system of the British Record Collector. I mention the deficiencies separately in the description of the item and I place pictures of them in the auction (see above).

As I mention the deficiencies separately in the description, I will not state: without writing is EX and with a name on the cover is EX minus or VG plus. Then it will be: EX with writing on the cover (woc), so that it is clear that there is written on the cover. I will also mention whether it is on the frontside of the cover or on the backside of the cover.

4.

I am not a professional photographer, so I hope that you will find the pictures clear enough. Otherwise you can contact me and I will, if possible, try to supply you with better pictures. In any case you can see the pictures (above).

5.

I am located in the Netherlands, so that the item will be sent out of the Netherlands. This will be visible in the calculation of the costs of the mail.

The price of sending by mail is:

The Netherlands GBP 4.00

Europe (outside the Netherlands) GBP 4.00

Rest of the world GBP 6.00

6.

I prefer PayPal. Dutch buyers I request to send the money by bank transfer (in Dutch per bankoverschrijving).

Now I start the description of the item.

The cover I will grade as GOOD PLUS / VERY GOOD MINUS. There are some deficiencies. There is some ringwear and an previous owner has removed a sticker, as can be seen on the right side above on the front cover (see picture above). On the backside of the cover there still is the original export- sticker. It is in used condition, but it is there, as can be seen on the picture above.

Visiually I grade the vinyl on both sides as GOOD. The labels on both sides I will grade as VERY GOOD PLUS.

I did play the album. In the beginning of side 1 and in the beginning of side 2 there are some taps/ raps.There are also some taps/ raps at the end of side 2. Further there is an jump (only 1 jump) at the end of side 2. Overall background noises can be heard, but the album is still playable.  I give the playing of the album as overall gradation a GOOD PLUS. In order to avoid disagreement: this one is not in VERY GOOD or EXCELLENT condition.

I hope that you can agree with my gradation. I have done my utmost to grade the album. Should you not agree with the gradation after you have bought the album and after you have listened to the album, then you can return it. After I have received the item back I will return the money to you.

Remember: this is a very rare export album for South Africa. This is not the first pressing, which does have the yellow lettering, but this is the second pressing which has the white lettering.

I wish you good luck with bidding and if you have questions you can contact me.
