Selling-up my extensive record collection. Lots of interesting records in the collection - do have a look at my other items, and there are new listings every week. I may have obscure things that you didn't even know you wanted!
Classic 1968 mono album in very good round die-cut cover. Record has some damage but plays well.  Incidentally, this definitely isn't the 1975 NEMS Immediate re-issue - that clearly says NEMS on record labels (I have one of those), and the round cover on that is different. And it's not mono.
Pictures are my own photos of the items for sale. Photos are part of the description, have a good look. 
Cover - for anyone unfamiliar with this, it's one big die-cut piece of card, five circles, the circles joined by just short joining pieces 2" long. These joining pieces often tear (especially if one was foolish enough to keep the record in it), so you end up with a bunch of separate circular pieces. This one is still all in one piece, none of the joining pieces are torn (just slightly starting to, on some). Panels are all nice, but the front has a bend / crease on the right side.
Record - has two previous owners' names, one crossed-out, on both labels. Visual inspection showed-up a heavy fingernail type impact at the start of track 1, and a succession of stylus scratches crossing the whole side.  On side two, a nasty-looking heavy fingernail-type mark. Both sides have various other scratches, marks and impacts, so rather than compile an endless list, I've done a play-test of the whole album - loud, on my posh hi-fi - with very good results.  No skips or catching.The sound on this is excellent, clear and very loud - being the mono version may make it seem (or actually be) louder. The music on side one starts-out loud, and easily drowns-out any audible effect from scratches. This is true of almost the whole side - Lazy Sunday at the end, is the quietest song, plus the first half of Rene. Afterglow has one loud pop, and crackles in brief quiet moments. Track 3 has one noticeable crackly moment. Rene and Song of a Baker play very well. Lazy Sunday has background crackles in quietish part at the beginning.  Side two (Happiness Stan story) has crackles at the start, and moderate crackles during the first song. Again, this is mostly loud music, and no crackling is heard. The fourth song is quieter, has some clicks at the start. In-between songs, is the narration by Stanley Unwin. As this is just speech, crackles are noticeable - loud at the start of the side, getting much less loud as the side goes on. 
1968 copies of this are expensive in top condition - the mono version more expensive than the stereo. This copy scores heavily for having the intact cover, then loses points as the record doesn't look great. And it plays well, as described above.
When I'm checking for damage on records, I look at them carefully with my reading glasses on, in good daylight. This method detects any bits of damage that will affect what you hear when listening to it - and lots that are not audible. Using a spotlight or direct sunlight shows more surfacey marks sometimes, but I don't do that - records are for listening to, not trying to see your face in.
Postage at cost within UK - £3.00 plus 50p for a proper record mailer with two stiffener sheets of cardboard (or whatever's appropriate). Happy to do combined postage wherever practical. I'll charge you what it costs me - so anything up to six (or so) LPs would still be the same charge, £3.50. I'm happy to send this overseas. See below for details, if bidding from outside UK - YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS STUFF.
Dispatch will usually be "next day".
Collection in person is welcome.
I don't mail things personally, to countries outside the UK - ( I mean it, don't ask) - but I am happy to use E-Bay UK's Global Shipping Program, for sending things abroad. Under this scheme, I send the parcel to an e-bay depot in UK, and they forward it to the overseas buyer.
They have a tracked courier service, for the journey from their UK depot, to the buyer.
This means that I can ONLY accept payments through e-bay (Pay Now button), and I can't send invoices.  
E-Bay UK tells me, they do NOT do combined postage in the Global Shipping Programme. Charges to the customer for delivery and customs charges are whatever you're told they are - if you don't want to pay the postal / courier charges individually for the items, then do not bid. HOWEVER, if you win several items, and pay for them all in the same payment, their system may well spot this and do combined postage. If this happens, pay what you're told, and I will refund the excess postage paid to me - if you buy three LPs, I would be getting three lots of £3.50, but I can send all in one parcel, so I only need one lot of £3.50, usually. The exception is, if the items you buy weigh more than 2 kilos altogether, I need to make two parcels - there is a special cheap postage rate in UK, for parcels under 2 kilos. Overseas customers - please DON'T request an invoice - I can't make one, and it screws-up the e-bay system.
International buyers should be able to see a postage cost to their country, you may have to input your location, if your country is included in the scheme.
If your country is not mentioned, please do not bid.
International postage to the following countries will be shown (this is the latest list that I've seen - lotta countries!)
Australia Austria Belgium Bulgaria Canada Croatia Cyprus Czech Republic Denmark Finland France Germany Greece Hungary Ireland Israel Italy Japan Lithuania Luxembourg Malta Netherlands New Zealand Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, Singapore, South Korea, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand Turkey Norway Poland Portugal Romania Russia Slovakia Slovenia Spain Sweden, United States, Antigua & Barbuda Aruba Bangladesh Barbados Belize Bermuda Bolivia Brunei Darussalam Cambodia Cayman Islands Dominica Ecuador Egypt French Guiana Gibraltar Grenada Guadeloupe Guernsey Iceland Jersey Jordan Liechtenstein Macau Maldives Martinique Monaco Montserrat Nicaragua Oman Pakistan Paraguay Peru Reunion Saint Kitts & Nevis Saint Lucia Sri Lanka and Turks & Caicos Islands
Applicable customs charges will probably be shown to buyers in non-EU countries - E-Bay collects customs duty for the receiving country, wherever import duty is appropriate. If you don't want to pay the customs charges, do not bid.
I don't send to China (because I prefer not to), and I also don't send to Japan, Brazil, Ecuador and Peru, as importation of vinyl records is not permitted in their customs regulations.
