Description
On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by Roxy Music called "For Your Pleasure" and is an ORIGINAL 1973 UK 1st Pressing on the 1st Press Island label!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!! THIS IS ONE OF ROXY MUSIC'S RAREST LPs EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!! JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!!

THIS LP ALSO COMES WITH AN AMAZING BONUS!!!! THE ONE PREVIOUS OWNER OF THIS LP WAS A REP & PROMOTER IN THE MUSIC BUSINESS (I EVEN HAVE PROOF OF THIS!) AND REGULARLY MET BANDS TO ARRANGE DETAILS OF RECORDINGS / TOURS. IN THIS CASE HE MET ROXY MUSIC IN LATE 1973 / EARLY 1974 AND OBTAINED THESE SIGNATURES FOR A YOUNG RELATIVE. HOWEVER UNFORTUNATELY (OR INDEED FORTUNATELY IN THIS CASE!) HE DIDN'T GET AROUND TO GIVING THEM TO HER! SO HERE WE HAVE THE LATE 1973 / EARLY 1974 ROXY MUSIC LINEUP - OF BRYAN FERRY, PHIL MANZANERA, EDDIE JOBSON, ANDY MacKAY & PAUL THOMPSON - ALL NEATLY AND CLEARLY SIGNED ON A HOTEL SLIP!!!! CLEARLY 100% GENIUNE, CLEARLY COMPTEMPORARY FROM LATE 1973 / EARLY 1974 - AND NOT THE LATER RUBBISH YOU SO OFTEN SEE!!!!

Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items (I always try my very best to describe everything exactly!) - PLEASE REMEMBER to contact with me FIRST, if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one! I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem! This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy! Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem. Thanks again - Graham @ XXXRecords. PLEASE NOTE - Private feedback bidders must consult me first prior to bidding - due to previous problems regarding non-payment, and non-receipt. MY POSTAGE UNDERCHARGE GUARANTEE TO ALL BUYERS (I always undercharge on postage!):- Due to UK Royal Mail's obscene price increases this year - I have had no choice but to increase postage charges a little. Until this year - I had kept them exactly the same since I joined ebay back in 2002. However this years price increases have been so obscene, that I have had no choice but to increase my postage charges for the first time ever. However PLEASE NOTE - my absolute 100% guarantee to you as a buyer - is that I will ALWAYS undercharge postage on everything I send out. Even after the increases, I am still charging you the buyer LESS than I am being charged myself. On each package I send out - the price is clearly stated on the front of the package (please check it when you recieve it!). I also do NOT charge for packaging costs - ONLY for postal costs! And should you find that I have overcharged you postage in ANY way - I will refund DOUBLE the difference. THAT IS MY 100% POSTAL GUARANTEE FOR EACH AND EVERY BUYER! No buyer EVER deserves to be overcharged on postage - and on my listings, I'll make sure they are ALWAYS undercharged. Any questions - please ask!
