Description
About This Record. Here's another really cool item from my record collection. This is the The Doors Strange Days LP, their first USA pressing complete with lyric innersleeve (not in the best shape) but close to keeper if not a keepr copy for most folks. It was my keeper copy for decades until I recently chanced upon another first pressing, identified because both Side 1 and Side of the vinyl have a matrix number 74014-Mon-1. Please see more detailed grading comments below and please do CHECK my Feedback which shows you my grading Cover/Vinyl of other LPs I have recently sold and what the lucky people who are now taking care of my vinyl thought about our experience.
PLEASE see all my additional photos and details regarding condition of the cover and vinyl below. The photos of the labels or cover list the songs and any possible details about the labels.
I offer full refund including shipping both ways (for USA and most foreign buyers who contact me with questions beforehand) in case for some wildly strange reason you might be unhappy with this purchase. Comes hand-cleaned on my VPI 16.5 Record Cleaning machine (hate those automated 17's) and placed in a new dust-free sleeve for your grandchildren. And two plastic sleeves for moisture protection (for you and me).
Please note that I work for eBay and this link is to the Code I have to abide by as an eBay employee: http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/everyone-employee.html I have no clue who works in the Collectibles Division and am not involved in any policy or other decisions that go on; I just happen to like vinyl and happen to work at eBay
Cover Condition: Excellent Minus (EX-) Some corner wear, medium to bottom corners and light to the top. Just a little bit of ring wear; most copies have LOTS but I have kept this sleeved and carefully stored for decades;. Keeper copy as these things go for most folks unless you are luckier than me.
Vinyl Condition: EX- light paper marks and some light stylus marks, plays great; close to, if not, a keeper copy for most folks. Looks VG+ but plays solid EX to Near Mint to my ears, so I'll grade EX- because of the light visual issues so the lucky buyer will be very happy. I try to grade conservatively, look at my feedback because you can see the grade of the vinyl I sold (cover / record) and what people thought).
Inserts: Comes with original Elektra Records special Lyric innersleeve with photos and such, but the innersleeve has some tears and pieces missing on the opening edge, and no worries because the vinyl also comes cleaned on my VPI Record Cleaning Machine and in a new protective plain paper innersleeve (so the old dust does not reattach! OH my gosh!!.
Labels: EX+ labels (see photos of all labels).
Packaging. I clean all vinyl on my V.P.I. Record Cleaning Machine and place it in a new innersleeve so the old dust does not reattach; but I also include the innersleeve that came with the LP if it is the original. I separate the vinyl in its new sleeve after cleaning from the cover, and place the cover and the separately packed vinyl in at least one if not two plastic outer sleeves that help protect against moisture damage during this cool transition to your record collection. I use sturdy cardboard containers with real corners and packed with at least one insert stiffener, and I place neon stickers on the front and back of the package indicating “Do Not Bend” and “Fragile” to help facilitate a safe passage.
Shipping and Payment. PayPal only. I ship promptly worldwide. The automatic eBay invoice cannot compute accurate shipping/postage charge if you buy more than one LP, so if you are unsure email me and ask for an invoice. I will ship by any method you want. But if you do not pay for protecting your purchase by requesting insurance, or expensive International Priority Mail, then please understand the record will be shipped at your own risk and not mine. I offer full refund on this record including shipping both ways. CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS: Please add sales tax!
