Description
The experience of buying records on Ebay is ruined if, when they arrive, you discover that they are either not in the condition stated or have been damaged in the post! For this reason I describe all my items in detail, and only post using strong sturdy packaging in a 'box' mailer with the record outside the sleeve to avoid seam-splitting. They are also from a non-smoking and pet-free home.
I accept returns and offer a full refund if you are not happy with your purchase.
Morrissey - 'The Last Of The Famous International Playboys' - UK Promo 12" - 1989
Catalogue no. 12POPDJ 1620 - HMV Records
The first six Morrissey solo-release singles, from 'Suedehead' to 'November Spawned A Monster', were promoted to radio stations by a specially-pressed 12" which each had large 'A' and 'B' lettering on the labels and were packaged in a differently-coloured die-cut outer sleeve in each case. These promo 12"s have now become very collectable and sought-after, and this auction is for the third of the promotional 12"s in the series; namely that which was pressed to promote 'The Last Of The Famous International Playboys', and which came in a green outer sleeve with matching labels. This is an original and scare example of a collectable which seems certain to rise in value as the popularity of collecting Smiths and Morrissey vinyl continues to grow, and has survived in superb condition over the past 25 years (see below).The vinyl and labels are in near mint condition, having practically no marks at all on the labels or on the surface of the highly-glossy vinyl. The rare outer sleeve is in strong excellent condition, having no creases and no seam-splitting. There is just some very minor corner and edge wear in places, but nothing to spoil the appearance of the sleeve which remains flat and glossy. A terrific example of this very rare record and sleeve. Please see the accompanying photos for more detail; note that the 'Ebay ID' lettering is just on the pictures and not on the item itself.
All my auctions start at 1P and have NO RESERVE. They are all 100% genuine, original versions. Some are in mint/new condition and some are used; all will go to the highest bidder. I offer a money-back guarantee if anything is described incorrectly. Postage and Packing is 3.20 in the UK for untracked and uninsured standard postage, this is subsidised by myself and the actual costs to me will usually be higher. Please do consider paying the extra 70p for tracked postage since there is nothing that can be done to find out what happened if the parcel is lost when standard postage is chosen. Shipping costs are greater for overseas buyers, but still subsidised and very good value; please check prices by using the options above or feel free to ask. Extra items are sent at no extra postage charge to the buyer (see below). I always take great care to package items well with strong mailing materials.See my other auctions for related rare items here. If multiple auctions are won at the same time (within a week), I will charge only the postage cost for the heaviest item and pay the remainder myself. This is the case wherever you live. If you are planning to bid, but cannot be around at the end of the auction, I have found this free site to be useful; note that I am not affiliated with the site in any way!
