Description
What It Is:
Did you get what you wanted for (insert this holiday's name here)? Why not give yourself one of the top Cure collectibles in excellent condition?
This is the promotional Spanish release of The Blood / Six Different Ways, pressed in minute numbers (300-400 is the estimate) and released only in Spain. The picture sleeve is textured, and the design and images are unique to this release. This single has perfect labels, the vinyl looks VG+, and it plays VG++ (it sounds wonderful).
If you have any concerns about my feedback rating: Please read the story about my single negative feedback in 11 years on eBay. Tracks are: Side 1- The Blood
- Six Different Ways

country of origin: Spain
copyright (generally, release) year: 1985

Condition:
Jacket: VG+: minor ring wear, more on side 2; some loss of black paint leaving white marks on the side, bottom, and much less on top; a little wrinkling; (what looks like a white scrape in the scan of the cover, bottom left, is present on all pictures of the cover on popsike.com [search for "cure blood"]); no seam splits, no rips, no price stickers, no major problems -- overall looks great.Record: play grading: VG++, some fairly minor surface noise before the music starts and as it ends on both sides, but no noise (except one pop on side 2?) while the music is on -- really sounds fabulous: great bass, very open and dynamic, better than my original UK vinyl Head on the Door.
visual grading: VG+, hairlines around the edges on both sides (side 2 much more, and with some hairlines across side 2) -- much less on side 1.
Grading standards:
All items are visually graded, and if they've been play graded that will be noted. I follow Goldmine grading standards. My grading is conservative, at least as good as I would expect from anyone that I would buy from.Payment:
I accept PayPal or personal checks (personal checks must clear before I ship). If you must return the item, it must be in the same condition that I sent it, but I will refund your full purchase price and return shipping cost within the USA (outside of the USA, I'll refund the bid price, but you must pay for return shipping unless I've made a serious error, in which case I'll pay shipping too) -- I guarantee your satisfaction.Shipping cost and Insurance:
Within the USA: I ship via the US Postal Service, priority and media mail. Costs are based on the shipping weight and package size. Please contact me for shipping to other locations. As always, if your winning bid is above $50, I will pay for insurance within the USA.Outside of the USA: I'm willing to ship outside of the USA, cost based on the winner's address and size and weight of the package. I usually insist on airmail for reasonable delivery time and better handling. I state the shipping size and weight in the ad so that you'll have an idea of cost, though final determination of shipping cost will occur when the auction completes. Unfortunately I can't offer free insurance as it often gets quite expensive for overseas shipment, however, I strongly advise that you select insurance as I cannot be responsible for delivery in another country.
Thanks for looking and bidding!
