Description

This is an UN-PLAYED copy of the rare black and white splatter vinyl pressing of this 4-song 12" EP. I purchased this new from Rasputin Records in Berkeley, CA circa 1987, when they had a sudden flood of West German Depeche Mode colored vinyl come in all at once.

As I already owned the standard black-vinyl U.K. release of this same EP, this copy has never been played, and the vinyl is immaculate.

The sleeve shows light wear from spending nearly three decades on my shelf, as detailed in the "condition description" section above and the close-up photos I've provided, but overall this is a very clean item.

I will also be listing a copy of the Limited Edition version of this 12", which is on grey vinyl, but oddly enough, I believe this splatter-colored pressing of the standard 12" is more rare than the gray "Limited Edition" version, and definitely the prettier of the two colors.

The reserve on this auction will be very reasonable, especially given that it is pristine un-played vinyl, as I need the cash and am therefore pricing all of my auctions to move. Don't pass up this opportunity to benefit from my precarious fiscal status.

Shipping will be the actual calculated cost of the service you select, plus $5 to cover the cost of packaging it properly, a necessity when shipping expensive vinyl. Please ask any questions before bidding, and good luck.

I will be selling more vinyl, including a number of additional un-played colored vinyl Depeche Mode records acquired at the same time as the one in this auction, plus 90's-era indie and punk rock, and maybe some hip-hop. So please check my other auctions over the next several days as I get the listings up.

Thanks for checking out my auction!
