RE LISTED DUE TO AN ERROR I MADE WITH AUCTION DURATION
HI FOLKS. I RECENTLY FOUND A HUGE COLLECTION OF ALBUMS FROM A RADIO D.J. HERE IN ZIMBABWE. ALL OF THEM WERE GIVEN TO HIM AS SAMPLES FOR HIS RADIO SLOTS IN THE HOPE THAT AIRPLAY WOULD GENERATE SALES . HE HAS SINCE LEFT THE COUNTRY AND I AM NOW OFFERING THEM FOR SALE. I WILL BE LISTING THEM OVER THE NEXT SIX MONTHS SO PLEASE WATCH MY AUCTIONS FOR SOME AMAZING RECORDS COMING UP.
UP FOR SALE IS THIS SUPER RARE ALBUM OF
IRON MAIDEN , THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST
PRESSED IN ZIMBABWE , SOUTHERN AFRICA .
THE VINYL IS IN POOR CONDITION. IT IS COVERED IN MARKS SCRATCHES. SAMPLE STAMP TO LABEL.
THE CRUDE GENERIC GRAMMA RECORDS SLEEVE IS GOOD . NOW IN A NEW PLASTIC SLEEVE. 'PRODUCTION CENTRE' AND SAMPLE STAMP TO FRONT.
PRODUCTION CENTRE WAS THE DEPARTMENT OF ZIMBABWE MUSIC CORPORATION RESPONSIBLE FOR HANDING OUT SAMPLES TO RADIO DJ'S. THIS WAS CLEARLY DONE PRIOR TO THE RELEASE OF THIS ALBUM HERE , HENCE THE GENERIC SLEEVE. THIS ALBUM WAS RELEASED IN VERY SMALL NUMBERS HERE. I RECENTLY SOLD A RARE COPY OF KILLERS FOR OVER 600 GBP. THIS PARTICULAR RECORD FELL INTO THE HANDS OF THE DJ'S SONS HENCE IT'S POOR CONDITION. IT IS , HOWEVER , A SERIOUS MAIDEN COLLECTABLE. MATRIX DETAILS ARE THE SAME AS THE SOUTH AFRICAN AND UK RELEASE.
PRINTED ON RECYCLED BOARD AS IS THE NORM FOR AFRICAN RECORDS. NOTE THAT DUE TO THIS , AFRICAN COVERS ARE NEVER AS GLOSSY AS OTHER COVERS AND ARE MORE PRONE TO WEAR . A NICE ADDITION TO ANY COLLECTION. WILL BE SHIPPED ANYWHERE WORLDWIDE FOR STATED FEE. WILL BE PACKED IN STIFF BOARD AND SENT AIRMAIL, THIS TYPICALLY TAKES 2 WEEKS AND IS EXTREMELY RELIABLE, NO NEED TO WORRY ABOUT INTERNATIONAL BIDDING.SEE MY FEEDBACK. ALL RECORDS SOLD FOR OVER £50 ARE SENT REGISTERED / SIGNED FOR AIRMAIL.
RECORDS MADE IN SOUTH AFRICA / RHODESIA / ZIMBABWE WERE PRESSED IN VERY SMALL QUANTITIES MAINLY FOR THE SMALL WHITE POPULATION. THEY ARE NOW BEING RECYCLED AND MADE INTO HAND BAGS ETC AND ARE VERY RARE. SOME DISCOGRAPHIES PUBLISHED DO NOT INCLUDE THESE PRESSINGS AS THEY WERE NOT KNOWN TO EXIST.
ALL ALBUMS ARE SENT IN STIFF BOARD WITH THE RECORD PACKED OUTSIDE OF THE COVER TO PREVENT SPLITTING IN TRANSIT.
IMPORTANT!!!
IF U ARE IN ANY WAY DISSATISFIED WITH MY DESCRIPTION OR SERVICE ,PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE OPENING A CASE OR LEAVING FEEDBACK SO IT CAN BE RESOLVED. THANKS , GORDON. I AM AIMING FOR 5 STAR RATINGS ON ALL SALES AND I DO MY VERY BEST TO DESCRIBE RECORDS ACCURATELY. I WILL GLADLY COMBINE POSTAGE. I HAVE BEEN TO THE POST OFFICE TODAY AND WAS TOLD INTERNATIONAL POSTAGE COULD TAKE UP TO 3 WEEKS, BUT AS I SAID IS 100 % RELIABLE. THANKS.
