David Bowie - Rare Sound And Vision 6-LP Box Set - Ryko Records - Clear Vinyl

	£		85
	$		113

Selling-up my record collection. This is one of a very limited number of vinyl sets made by Ryko when Bowie joined their label in 1989. Made in USA. More info here - www.discogs.com/David-Bowie-Sound-Vision/release/728492 

Pictures are my own photos of the items for sale. Photos are part of the description, have a good look.

This was a lucky find for me, in a local secondhand shop. Box has a lift-off lid made of plastic - see my second picture. This lid has picked-up lots of scratches and some miscellaneous dirt, but is not cracked or broken, and the image is still intact. Lower half of box is cardboard covered in a textured glossy black paper, still very good. The six records are on clear virgin vinyl, housed in 3 gatefold sleeves. These sleeves are in excellent condition. Front of each sleeve has an image that lines-up with the picture on the clear box top, as shown in my first picture. Lots of info on the gatefold sleeves. 

I have had a careful look at the records - it isn't easy to spot damage on clear vinyl. After a lot of staring, I found three short scratches or fingernail marks towards the end of side 6, but nothing apparent on the other playing surfaces. The excellent condition of the fragile gatefold sleeves suggests that the records have not been played much. Records are in top-quality poly inner sleeves. Tracks include a few rare / unreleased items, and tracks from albums up to and including Scary Monsters.

When I'm checking for damage on records, I look at them carefully with my reading glasses on, in good daylight. This method detects any bits of damage that will affect what you hear when listening to it - and lots that are not audible. Using a spotlight or direct sunlight shows more surfacey marks sometimes, but I don't do that - records are for listening to, not trying to see your face in.

Postage at cost within UK - £2.95. Happy to do combined postage wherever practical.

I'm happy to send this overseas, see below for details, if bidding from outside UK.

Dispatch will usually be "next day".

Collection in person is welcome.

I don't mail things personally, to countries outside the UK - ( I mean it, don't ask) - but I am happy to use E-Bay UK's Global Shipping Program, for sending things abroad.

Under this scheme, I send the parcel to an e-bay depot in UK, and they forward it to the overseas buyer.

They have a tracked courier service, for the journey from their UK depot, to the buyer.

This means that I can ONLY accept payments through e-bay (Pay Now button), and I can't send invoices. Combined postage may or may not be possible through the Program - if e-bay shows combined postage for their courier job, I'll do combined postage for the transit inside UK. I can't see information about this until you pay.

International buyers should be able to see a postage cost to their country, you may have to input your location, if your country is included in the scheme.

If your country is not mentioned, please do not bid.

International postage to the following countries will be shown (this is the latest list that I've seen - lotta countries!)

Australia Austria Belgium Bulgaria Canada Croatia Cyprus Czech Republic Denmark Finland France Germany Greece Hungary Ireland Israel Italy Japan Lithuania Luxembourg Malta Netherlands New Zealand Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, Singapore, South Korea, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand Turkey Norway Poland Portugal Romania Russia Slovakia Slovenia Spain Sweden, United States, Antigua & Barbuda Aruba Bangladesh Barbados Belize Bermuda Bolivia Brunei Darussalam Cambodia Cayman Islands Dominica Ecuador Egypt French Guiana Gibraltar Grenada Guadeloupe Guernsey Iceland Jersey Jordan Liechtenstein Macau Maldives Martinique Monaco Montserrat Nicaragua Oman Pakistan Paraguay Peru Reunion Saint Kitts & Nevis Saint Lucia Sri Lanka and Turks & Caicos Islands

International postage plus applicable customs charges will probably be shown to buyers in the following non-EU countries - E-Bay collects customs duty for the receiving country: Australia, Brazil, Canada, Israel, Japan, New Zealand, Russia and USA, and wherever else import duty is appropriate - e.g. Norway.

I WILL DEFINITELY NOT post to countries that are not included in the above lists, and I don't send to China.
