SUMMARY

OUTER SLEEVE

FRONT

Excellent -

There is some very slight fraying and creasing around the edges.   However the structure and spine ot the cover is strong.   Also the laminated plastic front cover has ensured that Bernard Yeszin's photo

of Martha and the Vandellas remains in excellent condition.

BACK

Very Good +

There is some creasing of the backcover.  Also there is some browning on the left handside and initials written in the top left hand corner.   This aside

Ray Scott's write up and the track listings still look great.

LABEL

Very Good +

On both sides of the label there are marks where the spindle of the record player has rubbed against the label.   

VINYL

Very Good +

There are some light surface marks and the occasional light scratch on both sides of the vinyl.

AUDIO QUALITY

Excellent -

There is some mild background popping, otherwise the audio delivered by Martha and the Vandellas is still very special.

 Introduction        * BE SURE TO ADD ME TO YOUR favorites list

Dear collector my name is Sam Barraclough and I have undertaken the task of selling my father’s extensive record collection. He has amassed a considerable and varied vinyl collection of albums and singles during his time as a DJ and critic, with many rare and items included.  In addition to the known rare records there are many demo and promotional items, which were not available for general purchase. 

I have a data-based collection using the Rare Record Price Guides' grading scale (If you are unaware of this grading system please don’t hesitate to contact me and I will reply as soon as possible with the guides description). As you can see in the description there is a grading given for Vinyl and Audio Quality. This is necessary because a record may seem poor quality when viewed, but when played the Audio Quality is often excellent.  Conversely the Vinyl quality may seem excellent but when played the Audio Quality can be quite poor.

The chronology of the collection stretches from the early 1960s to the early 1980s with a concentration of British Beat, Rock, Punk and Mod - but I will only be selling those records that I value at £18(€27) or over.  If you have any questions concerning this item or wish to enquire about my record collection please contact me by asking a question via ebay or email: sambarraclough@gmail.com. I aim to reply within 24 hours where possible.

 Refunds

I will offer a full refund (minus postage) to the winning bidder if you find that  any of the gradings (Outer Sleeve, Label, Vinyl or Audio Quality) given in the listing do not match the description of Rare Record Collector grading system. If you are dissatisfied, please notify me within 48 hours of receipt that you are unhappy with the record and are returning the album. 

 Postage

 I offer a choice of Royal Mail 1st Class Post, Royal Mail 2nd Class and Royal Mail Airmail for dispatch of your item.  Please select your preferred method of dispatch when paying for your item by using the “Pay now” link.  For all services I will obtain proof of postage which insures the record up to a value of £32 for lost or damaged items.  If additional insurance is desired, buyers should contact me after purchasing the item. 

-          All records are securely packaged in thick plastic protectors inside a record mailer, with stiffeners for extra protection in transit.

-         All records are cleaned with a professional vinyl record cleaning liquid before dispatch.

Those who wish to purchase more than one record (up to a batch of three) will receive postage reductions, which are shown in the tables below -

* When a combination of singles and LPs are won a fair postage calculation will be made

* When a double LP is won, the item is obviously heavier and is a further £1 on top of the regular postage cost (shown below)
