ITEM DETAILS

VARIOUS - "DREAM SEQUENCE'"

On offer is a very rare 1983 UK 24-track DOUBLE VINYL LP on the 101 International label (INTEL 4).

This is VERY rare (first time I have had a copy!) and features stuff ranging from Mininal Synth, Synth Pop, Twee and New Wave, to Rock and NWOBHM, over 4 sides (24 tracks). As far as I can tell, most of these bands never got to release anything other than the tracks on this album, which is a pity as many of them would have made great singles at the time!

Side 1 is mainly Mininal Synth and Synth Pop, apart from the last track which is prog-ish New Wave Of British Heavy Metal.
Side 2 is all New Wave Of British Heavy Metal and Hard Rock.
Side 3 mixes Minimal Synth, Indie-Pop/Twee/C86 and Mod-Power Pop.
Side 4 mixes DIY Punk, Minimal Synth and Indie-Pop.

**IMPORTANT** - please note that I expect this item to finish above £25.00 in which case it will require insurance wherever you live! In the UK, this is via Recorded Delivery (extra £1.10) which covers the item up to £50 - if the item finishes above £50, then insurance will be via Special Delivery (extra £5.25). If you are abroad, it will be via International Signed For (extra £5.30 up to £50) or by Airsure (extra £5.40 up to £50), depending on your location or extra £7.90 if the item sells for £50+.

CONDITION & TERMS

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU READ THE DETAILED DESCRIPTIONS GIVEN BELOW - although the stuff I offer is cheap, I still make a big effort to give a very detailed description, rather than just putting a simple 'G','VG' or 'EX'. Similarly, the photos provided may not always show every detail in the description (especially on the covers), so please ensure you have read and understood the whole description before placing a bid or using 'Buy It Now' ... thanks!

POSTING OVERSEAS - I must also add that recently I have had quite a lot of bids from people in countries where insurance is compulsory and the winners have then either argued about the CLEARLY stated terms or refused to pay for insurance. I don't see how I can make things any plainer, but just to reiterate, if you live anywhere EXCEPT the UK, Europe (NOT Italy, Turkey or Russia), USA, Canada, Japan, Australia and New Zealand your parcel MUST be insured and sent via International Signed For - this is at EXTRA cost to the buyer and will be clearly detailed in the POSTAGE & PACKING section (please scroll down to below 'Grading' section).

COVER - in VG/VG+ condition, with the following signs of age; the sleeve shows some 'storage' outer rim record-shaped impression to front and rear and a little minor related wear to the top (front) and middle (rear). There is a small bend in top left and bottom right corners and a small mark top right where a sticker has been removed. Finally there is a very small amount of wear/rubbing at the bottom of the spine (bottom left corner). Overall, nothing major at all though and otherwise fine.
VINYL - viewed under a bright halogen bulb, Record 1 is in EX+/Near Mint condition, Record 2 is in EX+ condition. There is nothing to report except for the odd mega-light 'hairline' surface mark and a very pale 'storage' line on track 1 of Side 3 (very minor and obviously NOT affecting play). Judging by the minimal spindle traces this has hardly been played.

Overseas buyers (non-English speakers) - you are welcome to bid but remember that the items I am selling are USED and will mostly NOT be mint. There is a detailed description above so please make sure you have READ AND UNDERSTOOD this before bidding. If in any doubt or if there is something you do not understand, please ask. I will be VERY unhappy if anyone bids and then says afterwards that the "vinyl is only in VG condition" or similar if it's clearly stated! So PLEASE make sure you are clear on what you are bidding on before hitting the button ... thanks!

GRADING

MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint. (please note that I will NEVER use this grade, as I think you are asking for trouble! The highest grade I will use will be NM (Near Mint) as even a new record/CD can have a tiny fault if you look hard enough!)

EXCELLENT (EX): The record shows signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD (VG): The record has obviously been played a number of times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and maybe some occasional light scratches. If there is any surface noise it will be occasional, light and unobtrusive. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD (G): The record has obviously been played a lot and while it still plays through OK, it will have a lot of surface marks and/or light scratches (maybe also the occasional 'feelable' scratch) and most likely there there will be regular and noticeable surface noise. The cover and contents may suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine and/or seam splits, discoloration, etc.

ABOUT MY LISTINGS (PLEASE READ)

Naturally we would all like to be able to buy a 1st pressing Beatles album in mint condition for a tenner; however, returning to the real world, this is obviously not possible (or at least, very unlikely!) The music I will be offering for sale will be from my own vast collection; it will therefore be used but will be affordable and will be ideal for buyers who want a solid, playable copy (and who don't mind if the item isn't in pristine condition) without paying a fortune. If you want stone-cold mint first pressings then you are in the wrong place! Most of what I sell will be in the G-EX range and will often be at a set Buy It Now price (no waiting 7 days only to be outbid at the last minute - if you want it, get it right away!).

Condition-wise, if any surface marks are mentioned in the description, these will be precisely that - NON-FEELABLE and on the top surface of the record or CD only. Any deeper or feelable marks will be noted and if it affects play, again it will be mentioned in the description. Basically, I will only list anything I would happily buy myself. I have a mountain of stuff to get through so may not always have time to give a full track-listing; if you want more info., feel free to ask but please try Discogs or the All Music Guide first as you will almost certainly be able to find out what you need on one of those two sites. If not, then drop me a line. Finally, all grades used (see above) are those used by "Record Collector" magazine (please take note of this if you are a US bidder as Goldmine's grades are very different to those used in RC). Thanks for reading all this, and please save me on your favourite sellers list as there will be thousands of items in the £1-£5 range listed in the coming months.
