The Beatles - Sgt. Peppers AND Abbey Road Picture Discs - Factory Sealed And In Bags Since Purchase During 1978.
Capitol Records -- Sgt. Peppers # SEAX-11840 --- Abbey Road # 11900.
Okay, lissen up heah. Yes, they're factory sealed. If you look closely at the front of both albums, you'll see the outer seal started to come apart. Sgt Peppers, look to the left and right of the bass drum, to the left of John and both sides of Pau's noggin. Abbey Road, look in between Pauland George and also over the VW. There's a few other smaller spots like that on both.
Seriously though, these two albums haven't left their bags since the day I got 'em when they were new in 1978. Been through several moves, etc. The yellow tape on the back of the bags I put 'em in is the original too.
Below the next section, something quite the funny. You've gotten this far, so keep going.

Here's the not-reduced-to-ultra-fine-print business part, so you can be sure nobody gets screwed over and I don't get taken to the cleaners by folks who would do so to get stuff for free, or worse, make a seller look bad for whatever reason (yes, it happens and that's sad).
I'm offering new wave and prog rock (and some other styles including a few titles of very early-in-the-game techno/rave) CD's and vinyl, plus rather decent door hardware (handsets, locks, etc.) from well-known manufacturers. Kind of an odd mix, eh ? But then again, so was my day job. ;-)
Most of what's offered will be set in at auction. Some items will start at $1.00, especially the door hardware (all of that is open box, N.O.S. - new old stock - and the like). From time to time, items will be run up at a fixed price and without question, at time of listing will be the lowest - period - and will keep checking to make sure that's the case. I also have a few items left over from a small-ish concert sound system that will be listed as well.
You might notice I'm going a tad over the top with most descriptions and amount of photos on many listings. That's solely so you know which end is up. Not gonna hide anything. Any missing artwork, pieces, parts, etc., and/or any real flaws on all items will be noted in plain language and sight in the description panel and of course, in the photos. On most of the new wave CD's and vinyl, there's stickers with hand-written notes (BPM, Artist/Title, version, etc.).
I was a nightclub DJ on LawnGuyLand NooYawk back when new wave was new and almost every title I have - vinyl and CD - 95% of 'em - were "working" items. I'll never ever offer for sale any item I wouldn't buy myself, I'd rather just give 'em away or toss 'em in a dumpster. Please see the photos on each item listed, you'll understand. If CD jewel cases or other things were replaced with new, that will be noted as well.
No warranty expressed or implied on any item offered. All sales final. No returns.
Buyer is responsible for any sales taxes and/or VAT due. Shipping not included in price, be it an auction or fixed price listing. NewWaveAndProgRockDJ (meaning yours truly) absorbs the cost of cartons/packing material. It might not seem like much, but if you've never sold items before, the cost of padding material, packaging, new CD jewel cases and even carton sealing tape, that stuff adds up rather quickly. Also, let's not kid ourselves. Of course that cost is built into the opening bid price. Momma dinna rayz no dummie. ;-)
As far as actual packing goes, I'm kinda sorta maybe pretty good at making sure your item(s) leave here with their seat belts properly fastened, seat in the upright position and tray-table secured to the seat in front. Tain't my first rodeo with ye olde shipping/receiving/logistics thing. To say I'm gonna take double-secret-probation-extra-good care in packing these two albums is an understatement. It'll be done proper, marked 'fragile', the whole shebang.
NewWaveAndProgRockDJ (meaning yours truly) is not responsible for any damage incurred by your items during shipping and transit to you via any carrier.
Re-sellers welcome. If you think my opening bid/fixed pricing makes me seem off my meds - meaning I'm way under what something should go for - please by all means grab it and go for it. It's all good.
KLS, South Florida

Pop Hates The Beatles
My daughter needs a new phonograph, She wore out all the needles, Besides, I broke the old one in half, I hate the Beatles !
She says they have a Liverpool beat, She says they used to play there, Four nice kids from offa the street, Why didn't they stay there ?
What is all the screaming about, Fainting and swooning, Sounds to me like their guitars, Could use a little tuning.
The boys are from the British Empire, The British think they're keen, If that is what the British desire, God Save The Queen !
No daughter of mine can push me around, In my house I'm the master, But when the British come into town, Gad, what a disaster !
Little girls in sneakers and jeans, Destroyed the territory, 'Twas like some of the gorier scenes, From West Side Story.
Of course my daughter had to go there, The tickets are cheap, she hollers, I was able to pick up a pair, For forty-seven dollars.
When the Beatles come on the stage, They scream and shriek and cheer them, Now I know why they're such a rage, It's impossible to hear them.
Ringo is the one with the drums, The others all play with him, It shows you what a boy can become, Without a sense of rhythm.
There's Beatle books and T-shirts and rings, And one thing and another, To buy my daughter all of these things, I had to sell her brother.
Back in 1776, We fought the British then, folks, Parents of America, It's time to do it again, folks.
When they come back, here's how we'll begin, We'll throw 'em in Boston harbor, But please, before we toss 'em all in, Let's take 'em to a barber !
:-D
