Please read the Terms and Conditions lower in the listing about payment, postage costs and insurance BEFORE placing a bid. Thank you.
I am happy to answer any questions, but please read the listing carefully before sending a question or placing a bid. I try to provide comprehensive details and information in every listing so the answers to most questions should be found below.
******************************************
This also has the first press matrix numbers in the run out grooves: 588171 A//1 and 588171 B//1. This is not quite as rare as the turquoise sleeve copies but it is a first pressing orange sleeve example pressed on heavy (140 gram) vinyl and is very hard to find.
Detailed description
Vinyl: The vinyl has various marks and some light scratches visible on either side. It is totally flat. I have played the whole record and it can be listened to and enjoyed all the way through without any problem and the sound reproduction when the band are going full pelt on tracks like Dazed and Confused and Communication Breakdown is awesome. There is some background noise and crackle and there are places where you get a quiet repetitive click but nothing that lasts very long and never too intrusive. There is some swishing noise, mainly in the quiet parts. There are absolutely no jumps, skips or sticks anywhere at all and no loud continuous clicks.
Labels: See photos. Both labels look great, with absolutely no signs of damage, writing, stickers etc and just typical spindle marking when tilted into the light.
Sleeve: The sleeve has no writing, splits, tears or stickers etc and just light signs of use. There are a few light laminate creases and corner creases, laminate lift near the spine and a scratch in the laminate on the front (in the white area below the Zeppelin) which is hardly noticeable.
Edge wear: none
Corner wear: There is minimal wear to the corners at the opening and moderate wear to the corners at the spine, especially the bottom one.
Inner sleeve: Plain
Other inserts: n/a
Detracting features not covered above - none.

I am an ebay top-rated seller with a 100% feedback rating because my records are always described accurately and fairly. All photographs are of the actual item you will get. I will always do my best to point out any blemishes which might detract from the item.
Please check out my other items and take advantage of reduced postage costs for multiple buys.
Unless stated otherwise, vinyl is visually graded. I play grade records where possible but there just aren't enough hours in the day to play them all, so I usually restrict play grades to collectors' items and rare records which are particularly hard to find in top audio condition or other records where a visual inspection has identified flaws on the playing surface. A visual grading will identify physical flaws (such as scratches) and will determine whether a record has been cared-for properly, but it will not detect static or crackle caused by dust in the grooves or other invisible sources. A visual grading will provide an indication of how a record might play, but it is not a guarantee of the record's sound quality, even if it looks perfect.
First pressings and originals: Many of the records I sell are first pressings and, if this is the case, I will usually identify them as such and may include the relevant matrix information etc in the description. However, sometimes I cannot be certain whether a record is a first pressing or not. In these instances I will often use the word 'original' to identify a pressing which I think might be a first pressing, but do not know for sure (but which is certainly NOT a recent pressing or audiophile release etc). If you specifically want a first pressing, and know how to identify it, please ask the relevant questions before you bid.
Feel free to ask any questions about the item (but please don’t leave it to the last minute as I may not get a chance to reply).

POSTAGE & PACKING
I care about the records I sell and believe that they need to be carefully and securely packaged to ensure that they survive their journey through the post. Vinyl is removed from the sleeve for posting and my standard packaging includes:
- A brand new, high-quality record mailer
- At least two brand new rigid cardboard stiffeners
- All packages are labelled "Do not bend"
- I reinforce the mailer seal with special "FRAGILE" parcel tape
