UB40 LP&EP 180gm Present Arms (1981 UK DEP Original 1st Pressing) NM/EX/MINT
On DEP International Records (Cat: LPDEP1 & 12XDEP1) this LP & 12” EP set was released in 1981 in UK on 180gm vinyl, and comes in the original cover, along with the original inner sleeves.
I have owned this from new & played only a handful of times.
RECORDS: The records have been played to check on sound quality, and all tracks play like new with no crackles or clicks, and no jumping or sticking. The labels are clean and free from writing, stickers or other blemishes. There are no paper scuffs on the surfaces, which are clean and have a good sheen. The record is graded NEAR MINT. (PLEASE NOTE: I only grade as MINT factory sealed discs, and also unsealed discs that I have genuinely not played from new).
INNER SLEEVES: The paper sleeves are like new with no issues - no creases and no writing, tears, stickers or other blemishes. The inner sleeves are both graded MINT.
CARD COMPANY COVER: The cover is in great condition, and is graded EXCELLENT. See below for more details.
CARD COMPANY COVER: All edges are sharp, the spine print is perfect with no wear. The upper spine corner has a tiny crease approx. 4mm x 10mm. The lower spine corner has a smaller crease approx. 4mm x 4mm. The other corners are sharp with no wear. On the front surface there is a thin mark approx. 10cm long at the upper spine area, but this only shows up in bright light – this is not a crease. There is a small area on the rear near the upper edge which has a partial ring mark. There are no other areas on front or rear with ring wear marks. There are no other creases, and no writing, stickers or other blemishes. The cover is graded EXCELLENT.
Please see my feedback to give you assurance of my descriptions.
Track list: See photos.
GRADING: Records are graded using the Rare Record Price Guide – please ask if you require further information. I always play grade the records I sell, unless sealed or stated otherwise.
PACKAGING: This item will be protected inside a strong thick card pro-mailer with a stiffener – see my feedback. I prepare a record (unless factory sealed) for despatch by re-packaging it in a new polythene-lined inner sleeve or card sleeve, and place it separately from the company cover to avoid splitting the seam. The record could otherwise slip around inside and cut through the edge of the card cover. To add further protection, I place the whole package inside a polythene outer slip case. If you have an alternative request for packaging, please contact me before making payment.
From a smoke-free, pet-free home.
COMBINED POSTAGE: I always combine postage costs wherever possible. On multi-purchases up to 4 single albums (LPs), postage is the same as for a single item (LP). This includes gatefold covers as well. Please wait for me to invoice you after the auction/sale, or if you prefer to pay straight away, I shall reimburse any over-payment for postage via Paypal.
POSTAGE UK: £FREE Royal Mail Parcelforce Tracked 48. Other postal services – please email me.
POSTAGE OVERSEAS: Shipping charges are available on the drop-down country list. The Global Shipping Program is used for overseas destinations – packages are posted to the UK GSP central depot, where they are re-addressed & shipped to the final destination. There may be a further (import duty) charge at the destination country.
