Condition of record is a real nice high VG+ with just a few visible surface marks which cannot be felt and will not affect play. Condition of cover is a high VG with a 1" tear coming in from the lower spine, a stained area at one corner on both sides of the cover, a 1-1/2" split in the right side of the bottom edge, some ring and contact wear, and some wear and a little flaking along the edges and on the corners. Cover has no writing or stickers. Capitol Records stock inner sleeve is in real nice crisp condition with no splits or tears. This PROMO ONLY LP would be a nice addition to any Beatles record collection! Media mail postage within the U.S. is $4.00. I WILL SHIP WORLDWIDE - PLEASE NOTE: NEW FIRST CLASS INTERNATIONAL AIRMAIL POSTAGE TO AREAS OUTSIDE THE U.S EXCEPT FOR CANADA (17.50) AND GERMANY is $22.00 - YES IT'S CRAZY, THIS IS THE U.S. POSTAL SERVICE AS OF 1/27, NOT ME!!! PLEASE NOTE: AN EXTRA $13.95 TO COVER REGISTERED POSTAGE WITH TRACKING AND SIGNATURE DELIVERY WILL BE ADDED TO ALL SHIPMENTS VALUED OVER $50.00 GOING TO BUYERS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES. ALSO, DUE TO THE GERMAN POST AND CUSTOMS CONTINUING FAILURE TO DELIVER MY PACKAGES, I AM FORCED TO ADD AN ADDITIONAL $13.95 TO COVER REGISTERED POSTAGE WITH TRACKING AND SIGNATURE DELIVERY TO ALL SHIPMENTS GOING TO GERMANY. I APOLOGIZE FOR THIS, BUT I CANNOT CONTINUE TO LOSE MONEY AND HAVE MY EBAY REPUTATION DAMAGED BY THE GERMAN POST AND CUSTOMS' INABILITY TO DELIVER MY PACKAGES.

I will give an immediate refund (less shipping) upon return of the LP if buyer is dissatisfied for any reason. Good luck!
