Description

Please also note - that this week I will have LOADS of 45s & LPs all ending March 3rd.  Of course, I will have my usual listings of Prog/Psych/Jazz/Blues LPs ending this day, but also some EXCEPTIONALLY rare Reggae/Ska, Freakbeat, Psych, and Rock & Roll 45s aswell!!!!   So an absolutely INCREDIBLE set of listings (LPs and 45s!) will all appear during the week - all ending March 3rd!!!!

SECONDLY:- For the all 45s my description will look different, as with 45s especially there is FAR less to describe and it does not warrant the descriptions that my LPs get.  And for once almost ALL the 45s (apart one or two exceptions) are fresh to the market - direct from 1 owner collections!!!!  And even the Reggae 45s (which are usually trashed) are almost all in BRILLIANT condition - with STUNNING unwritten labels!  Of course, please take the time to read each description in detail, but most of the listings are SUPER RARE items in BRILLIANT condition! 

Lastly - these aren't your run of the mill Reggae/Rocksteady listings, as there are some seldom seen and VERY sought after 45s in there!  This is just one 45 from this collection, so good luck if you decide to bid - and please take a look at this AMAZING item below:-


RARITY:-   Like most Reggae/Rocksteady 45s from this period, it was only sold in a few select record shops, sold very little, and is consequently VERY hard to find!  And I know this one is particularly rare - with only 2 or 3 copies turning up for sale in the last 10 years!

COUNTRY:-  UK

MONO/STEREO:-  MONO

PRESSING:-   1ST PRESSING

ARTIST:- ALTON ELLIS & THE FLAMES

TITLE:-  WILLOW TREE / CAN'T STOP NOW

CAT NUMBER:-  TI 7044

LABEL:-  TREASURE ISLE

DATE:-  1968

SIGNS OF PLAY:-  BARELY ANY!

LABELS:-   EX+!  SUPERB LABELS!

RECORD GRADING:-   The record is in BRILLIANT condition and still VERY bright & shiny looking indeed!  It has NO scratches, only 2 or 3 MEGA light hairlines, NO scufflines, only some MEGA faint bag sweat traces under light, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!  The record plays with NO pops, NO groovewear, NO jumps, NO sticks, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!  The record must grade Very Good++++ if not better!  A very VERY nice record indeed and VERY strictly graded! 

SLEEVE:-  Comes in a plain card sleeve.  I do not believe this 45 ever had a company sleeve.  But if it did, it doesn't now.

DEFECTS OUTSIDE OF THE GRADE GIVEN:-  N/A

Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items (I always try my very best to describe everything exactly!) - PLEASE REMEMBER to contact with me FIRST, if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one!  I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem!  This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy!  Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem.  Thanks again - Graham @ XXXRecords.

PLEASE NOTE - Private feedback bidders must consult me first prior to bidding - due to previous problems regarding non-payment, and non-receipt.   MY POSTAGE UNDERCHARGE GUARANTEE TO ALL BUYERS (I always undercharge on postage!):-  Due to UK Royal Mail's obscene price increases this year - I have had no choice but to increase postage charges a little.  Until this year - I had kept them exactly the same since I joined ebay back in 2002.  However this years price increases have been so obscene, that I have had no choice but to increase my postage charges for the first time ever.  However PLEASE NOTE - my absolute 100% guarantee to you as a buyer - is that I will ALWAYS undercharge postage on everything I send out.  Even after the increases, I am still charging you the buyer LESS than I am being charged myself.  On each package I send out - the price is clearly stated on the front of the package (please check it when you recieve it!).  I also do NOT charge for packaging costs - ONLY for postal costs!  And should you find that I have overcharged you postage in ANY way - I will refund DOUBLE the difference.  THAT IS MY 100% POSTAL GUARANTEE FOR EACH AND EVERY BUYER!  No buyer EVER deserves to be overcharged on postage - and on my listings, I'll make sure they are ALWAYS undercharged.  Any questions - please ask!
