Frequently asked questions about postage:
Do you combine postage? Yes. I am not a business. I have decent scales and if someone buys more than one item I pack, weigh and then send the invoice. If someone buys quite a lot I will take the time to work out the various ways I can combine items to get the lowest postal costs with the correct insurance.
Will you send by standard postage? No. I will not post anything unless it has the correct insurance and a signature at point of delivery. This includes international postage.
The Beatles SGT.PEPPERS LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND Mono Gatefold Insert 1st press
From our own collection and owned by us from new.
This LP is in extremely good condition for its age. I have played it all the way through on both sides and there are no jumps, no sticking points and it sounds brilliant.
The cover is in excellent condition and is clean and shiny - some wear to the corners and some small creases in the laminate at some of the edges. No laminate missing or lifted patches. The spine is intact and clearly legible. The inside of the gatefold is in immaculate condition with just a faint inscription on the top right. It has the glued down folded over flaps at the top which have not lifted at all. There is no shelf wear to the bottom edge.
The original inner sleeve is long gone and I will put the record in one of those anti static master sleeves.
The insert is uncut - the only fault is a faint rub line to the top left edge. There are no marks on the back.
The vinyl itself plays brilliantly. I have listened to both sides all the way through and there are no jumps, no sticking points, no clicks or pops. The only problems I can hear is a little faint surface crackle in the following places:
Fixing a Hole - here and there
She's Leaving Home - a couple of seconds right at the start
Lovely Rita - very, very faint
A Day in the Life - faint right at the start
This record is now nearly 50 years old and has been much loved so there are inevitably sleeve scuffs on the surface of both sides but these do not affect the sound quality other than I have described above.
The labels are both intact, with a sticker on Side1 which will probably come off with a little help but I don't want to do it! There are spindle marks on both labels which you can see when you tilt the record against the light.
Matrix/runout Side 1: XEX 637-1 there is also AOL on its side and a 2 on its side
Matrix/runout Side 2: XEX 638-1 there is also what looks like AAL on its side (the A's could be upside down V's) and a 6
