CONDITION:

VINYL - VISUAL VERY GOOD+ to EXCELLENT- The vinyl is very clean and bright but has obviously been played many times with numerous light surface marks on both sides. The paper labels show typical signs of use but the four prong push-out centre is strong and complete with a KT tax stamper on the A Side. 

VINYL - AUDIO EXCELLENT The audio reproduction play grades as excellent on both sides with very little lessening in sound quality. IT SOUNDS GREAT!

SLEEVE EXCELLENT The green and white company sleeve has typical light creasing and signs of handling with no major defects although there is a small price sticker blemish on the front cover. The record will be dispatched with an additional new die-cut white paper sleeve. 

AN EXCELLENT EXAMPLE OF THIS SUPERB 1960s BRITISH JOE MEEK & FREAKBEAT RARITY

Remember, no 'Buy It Now' offers please - this record will only be sold by auction. Good luck if you bid.

BIDDERS WITH A FEEDBACK SCORE OF 10 OR UNDER: We all need to start somewhere but, due to an unacceptably high proportion of phantom U.S. non-payers, I would ask all low feedback potential buyers to EMAIL ME BEFORE BIDDING. Any bids received from zero feedback buyers who have not contacted me prior to bidding will be immediately deleted.

PLEASE WAIT FOR ME TO INVOICE YOU BEFORE YOU MAKE YOUR PAYMENT, especially if you have bought more than one item - you will be entitled to a postage discount for multiple purchases.

This vinyl and sleeve will be dispatched within a plastic sleeve, carefully packed WITH FOUR CARDBOARD STIFFENERS and posted in strong, good quality cardboard packaging. Please try to recycle the packing cardboard if possible - it might just help to offset the damage done when it was originally manufactured. Alternatively, throw it away and set fire to a couple of old tyres.

I CAN ACCEPT NO LIABILITY FOR ANY ITEMS THAT MAY BE LOST OR DAMAGED IN THE POST

I always strongly recommend that you select the insured option for postage irrespective of the value of the contents. Naturally, I will happily provide buyers with any necessary paperwork in the event of them having to make a claim against Royal Mail, but if you do not select the insured option, and your parcel is damaged or goes missing in the post, then you will not be entitled to any compensation, it's that simple.

Please do not ask me to send expensive items by the cheapest service available as I will not do so. Bitter experience has taught me that it is a nightmare to resolve to everyone's satisfaction if the postal service lets us down.

ABOUT ME:

If you haven't done business with me before my name is ANDY HIBBERD. I am based in England and own a real, old-fashioned record shop called 101 COLLECTORS RECORDS in Farnham, on the Surrey/Hampshire borders, about one hour out of central London.

I am proud to be a TOP RATED EBAY SELLER with a 100% POSITIVE FEEDBACK HISTORY and over 1,645 SATISFIED ONLINE CUSTOMERS.

I deal in old and collectable records, CDs, DVDs and music memorabilia in most genres, as well as new vinyl and CD releases and re-issues. 95% of my business is done in the shop, with my eBay sales offering just a, hopefully tantalising, taste of my overall stock. Please feel free to get in touch if you need any further information about this item, if you have any questions about what's currently in stock, or if you need any advice about selling a collection.

I can be contacted on 01252 734409 between 10am - 5.30pm Monday to Saturday.

I am always happy to receive your Wants Lists, but I sometimes file them carefully under bits of paper, which are in turn under slightly larger pieces of paper, that aren't always where I thought I had left them. This could be blamed on incompetence on my part, but I prefer to blame it on the pixies that clearly infest my shop and move things about after I have gone home, the little bastards. However, I will do my very best to find what you want a) immediately, b) the day after you have found it elsewhere, or c) about a year after you have quite frankly lost the will to live.

That said, I do appreciate your interest in this listing. If you are thinking of bidding, please make sure that you have read the description and P&P costs carefully, and take the time to look at my Returns Policy. Also, please check out my Feedback comments and past sales - I am not an anonymous internet seller but a responsible (pixies permitting) and contactable UK record dealer.

Thank you.

Andy
