Description
*** BID WITH CONFIDENCE: As a long-time Beatles collector, I’ve had my share of bad experiences buying vinyl on eBay - so I know the disappointment and frustration. I grade conservatively, strive to provide accurate descriptions and detailed photos, package each item VERY carefully and ship quickly - see details below. ***
**********************************
*** NOTE: I use visual grading only, and Near Mint is the highest grade I use. ***
Beautiful unplayed copy of the rare 1989 US Capitol (blank white label) test pressing of McCartney's Figure of Eight (Capitol 7PRO-79889). Vinyl 45s were being phased out at the time, so there was no commercial or even promo issue on vinyl - just a commercial cassette single and a promo CD single.
The disc trail-off area has the machine-stamped "MASTERED BY CAPITOL" and the hand-etched matrix # 7PRO-79889-G1 on both sides.
This is a really tough one to find - it rarely shows up on eBay. Even way back in Perry Cox's last Beatles price guide in 2007, it was listed as $300 for a Near Mint copy (Spizer ID CAP 79889.TP1, page 212).

* FAST SHIPPING: Free domestic shipping via USPS Media Mail. Sorry, but I only ship within the lower 48 states. My goal is to ship each item out the day after I receive payment, andI haven’t missed one yet.
* PACKAGING: I package every item VERY carefully, just the way I’d want to receive it:
(1) Using standard LP and 45 mailers with insert pads;
(2) Removing unsealed vinyl from its cover/sleeve to prevent seam seam splitting during transit; and
(3) Labeling the front & back of the package with a bright orange sticker (“FRAGILE - VINYL RECORD - Do Not Bend or Crush”). Please check out my feedback comments - severalbuyers have specifically mentioned how well their records were packaged.
Please contact me if you have any questions about this item.. Thanks for looking, and stay safe - Rick in TX
