Hello!  Please note, that this auction will end on late Friday February 9th UK time.  Of course, I usually end my auctions on Sundays.  However, as I have a large amount of AWESOME extra LPs, I will be doing 2 AMAZING sets of listings this week!!!!  So don't forget to check back before Friday February 9th UK time - to see some incredible items!  Please read on about this AMAZING item below, and GOOD LUCK if you decide to bid:-



On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by The Beatles called "Let It Be" and is an ORIGINAL 1970 UK 1st Pressing on the 1st Press Dark Apple label!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!!  THIS IS ONE OF THE BEATLES MOST SOUGHT AFTER LPs EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!!  IT IS ALSO WORTH NOTING THAT THIS WAS THE STANDARD 'SINGLE RELEASE' 1ST PRESSING - WITH A 'GREEN APPLE' ON THE REVERSE OF THE COVER & A 1ST PRESS DARK APPLE LABEL!!!!  THIS LP WAS WOULD HAVE BEEN SOLD AT THE SAME TIME AS THE 'LET IT BE' BOX SET - WITH THE 'GREEN' APPLE ON THE REVERSE DENOTING A SINGLE LP 1ST PRESSING - AND A 'RED APPLE' DENOTING LPs MADE FOR THE BOX SETS.  THIS LP IS MADE EVEN RARER STILL - AS IT IS ONE OF THE 'EARLIEST' GREEN APPLE 1ST PRESSINGS EVER MADE - WITH A 'NARROW' SPINE COVER, DARK APPLE LABEL, AND 2U/2U MATRIX ENDINGS!!!!


THIS LP IS MADE EVEN RARER STILL - AS IT IS AN ULTRA RARE 'FACTORY SAMPLE' 1ST PRESSING!!!!  AND THIS IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND ON THIS LP!!!!  'FACTORY SAMPLE' PRESSINGS WERE ONLY EVER PRESSED IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS (NO MORE THAN A HUNDRED COPIES AT THE VERY MOST!), AND WERE ONLY EVER USED FOR 'IN-HOUSE' USE BY EMI / PARLOPHONE THEMSELVES (FOR PROMOTIONAL PURPOSES), OR VERY OCCASSIONALLY ONE WAS GIVEN OUT TO 'IMPORTANT VISITORS' TO THE FACTORY - SUCH AS PROSPECTIVE CLIENTS FOR EXAMPLE!!!!  BARELY ANY 'FACTORY SAMPLE' 1ST PRESSINGS OF THIS LP WERE EVER MADE - MAKING THIS LP OF THE UTMOST RARITY!!!!

THIS PARTICULAR LP I HAVE NO HISTORY WITH.  I ACTUALLY DISCOVERED IT IN MY LOCAL RECORD SHOP SOME YEARS AGO.  HOWEVER, THE 'FACTORY SAMPLE' STICKER LOOKS 100% GENIUNE - AND HAS CLEARLY NEVER BEEN REMOVED SINCE THIS LP CAME FROM THE FACTORY.  THE STICKER IS 100% FLAT WITH NO CREASES AT ALL, SO IT HAS CLEARLY BEEN ON THE RECORD SINCE THE DAY IT WAS MADE.

NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN GREAT CONDITION!!!!  JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!!  THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1970 UK 'GREEN APPLE' 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS DARK APPLE LABEL, 1ST PRESS 2U/2U MATRIX ENDINGS, 1ST PRESS 'BLACK TEXT' PATENTS INNER SLEEVE, AND 1ST PRESS FULLY LAMINATED 'GARROD & LOFTHOUSE' GREEN APPLE 'NARROW SPINE' COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!  This is the ORIGINAL Apple UK 1st Pressing from 1970 and is in GREAT condition!!!!  The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl.  The Cat. No is PCS 7096 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Apple label (see picture) and is a UK Stereo 1st pressing (there were NO Monos!)!!!!       

The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a few VERY light spindle marks!!!!  The vinyl is in GREAT condition!!!!  Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO nasty concentric marks AT ALL, only a few MEGA light hairlines, NO nasty 'tick' marks AT ALL, only 2 or 3 lateral hairline type marks, only 1 long (but NON sounding!) scuffline, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!!  It is also great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!!  It plays with NO skips, only a few light clicks, NO jumps, NO sticks, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some audible background sound on the run on grooves & gaps - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!!  The record must grade Very Good(Minus) (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - and is still a VERY decent record indeed!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 'Black Text' Patents inner sleeve which is in GREAT condition!!!!  The ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Garrod & Lofthouse' FULLY Laminated 'Narrow Spine' Green Apple Cover is in GREAT condition!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear (PERFECT side words!), a few TINY creases along the spine, only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour!), NO rips, NO tears, only a few VERY light creases elsewhere (cover is VERY flat looking!), NO splits, the usual laminate record impression, only some very VERY minor evidence of 'tipping in' to the corner tips, NO annotations, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!!  Even the laminated back of the cover is in GREAT condition with NO grubbyness, the usual laminate record impression, NO yellowing, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - and is still a very VERY decent record indeed!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!! 

HAVE A LOOK AT MY PICTURES - I DO MY BEST TO SHOW THE RECORD FROM ALL ANGLES AND MAKE THE PICTURES AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE - THERE IS NOTHING TO HIDE!!!! It really is a GREAT looking LP and it is truly rare to find any copies of this MEGA RARE Beatles LP!!!! THIS WILL BE YOUR ONLY CHANCE TO BUY AN ORIGINAL 1970 UK 'GREEN APPLE' 1ST PRESSING OF "LET IT BE" BY THE BEATLES, IN GREAT CONDITION!!!!  Dont forget to take a look at all my other items including many other TOP LPs and contact me with any queries you may have.  Postal discounts for multiple buys are always available - and I guarantee to ALWAYS undercharge on postage!  Paypal, Bank Transfers, Cheques, International Money Orders, and Postal Orders accepted.

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!
