Description:
A very rare item this is; not because of the record itself, although quite scarce, but for the immaculate condition! The vinyl has that lustre as the same as the day it was made. The label is fresh and bright with the white writing almost looking reflective! The previous owner told me that is was only played once and that was to record it on to a reel to reel tape, which is what he listened to after that, the record was stored away for decades and never saw the light of day! The cover is clean, crisp, rich in colour and free from any defects! I would of like to call this MINT but I only do that for sealed records that have never been handled, if there was one record that breaks that rule this is the one! The audio is simply amazing from this original pressing and from when Buddy Holly's music lived. The winning bidder will be buying a unique record the like of which will probably be never seen again!

MY GRADING SYSTEM:
We visually grade our records very strictly only under 100 watts bulb strong light.
Remember that some records regardless of condition can have occasional tiny tics.

Mint (M) Perfect Condition, which basically means that it is as good as new, literally. The vinyl has to look new and sound as though it was never played, and the cover has to look untouched. Some argue that the only mint records are brand new unopened ones still in their original packing.

Near Mint (NM) Vinyl is near perfect. At most, a light scuff appears on the record, but it should play without any noise or skips. The record sleeve should also be near perfect with only minor signs of wear. There should be no "ring wear" on the cover. (Ring wear is when the outline of the record inside shows through the sleeve.)

Excellent (EX) Vinyl should still play with no skips of any kind. There can be some very minor surface scuffs, but they should not affect the sound quality. The record sleeve can have some minor ring wear but it should be mostly in good shape. Also, there can be some minor creases in the corners but no splits in the seams.

Very Good+ (VG+) This is the grading category where the quality of the sound is affected -- there will be some surface noise -- and the vinyl will show wear, including surface scuffs and some light scratches. However, the record is still very listenable, as there are no deep scratches that cause skips. On the cover, the corners may be slightly bent, but not broken. There may be wear to the seams but not tears or holes.

Very Good (VG) Vinyl doesn't necessarily look good, but still plays well enough. Surface noise will probably be present, including pops and clicks. At higher volume levels, the music should overpower any pops and clicks present. There may be seam splitting, but not complete separation of the sleeve panels from each other. There will be noticeable ring wear on the cover, but the cover should for the most part still be in a intact condition.

Very Good- (VG-) Vinyl is well played and looks it. However, the record should still play without skipping. It will have substantial surface noise, pops and clicks. Loss of various parts of the dynamic range will occur due to worn grooves. This grade depends a lot on the owner and the type of records he or she collects. A rock record may still sound ok at a high volume, but quieter styles of music will be practically unlistenable. The record cover may have many problems including seam splits, tears, and writing on it.

Fair/Poor (F/P)     Using the word fair for this quality of record is, in the opinion of JRS, too generous and not recommended since it may be misleading. Records described as fair (F) or Poor (P) in the Goldmine grading system are ones that are basically unlistenable. Surface noise, skips and pops make hearing what's on the record nearly impossible, if not completely impossible. The cover is falling apart, torn, and has writing all over it. The only reason we would sell a record like this it is extremely rare.

Important details will always be described under description in my listings.

POSTAGE & PACKAGING:
I send out all items in strong cardboard mailers, with strong stiffeners, fully protected to ensure you get the item exactly as I have sent it. Sometimes my postage charges are considered by a few to be slightly high. The reason is my travelling expenses to my nearest Post Office by bus, which is quite expensive.

RETURN POLICY:
If the grade of the item in your opinion is not as described, I will refund the purchase price only if the item is returned in the exact state as it was sent to you (e.g. if an item is sent sealed, then it must not of been unsealed). Also, I will know if you substitute your own inferior item. Damaged items that have arrived back to me will not qualify for credit. The buyer is responsible for shipping back to us the item, in the same condition as it was sent to you. Please Note P&P will not be included in the refund.

INSURANCE:
If you require extra insurance over £30 you will need the item sent to you by ‘Special Delivery’ this will incur slightly higher posting rates, please advise before paying. Please Note: if the buyer refuses the extra insurance then they are solely responsible for any losses over and above the £30 mark.

PAYMENT:
Can be made with PayPal, Cheque, PO's or Cash. Please inform me which you want to pay with unless it's PayPal.
