I'm sure you all know just HOW incredible this album is - it'll forever rate as one of thee GREATEST 60's garage-punk LPs of all time - few have ever been so consistent and so packed with melody at the same time. It includes both sides of their legendary first two singles: 'UNDECIDED' + 'WARS OR HANDS OF TIME', and 'BURIED AND DEAD' + 'SHE'S MY GIRL'...plus 'HOT GULLY WIND' the killer R'n'B howler from their first EP, plus 'BUT ONE DAY' & 'MY GIRL' were on another Astor single...and then there's the rest: 'DANCING GIRL', 'I FEEL FINE', 'THEME FOR A SOCIAL CLIMBER' (a single 'B' side), 'DON'T FIGHT IT', and 'JOHNNY B GOODE'....none are less than about 8.5 out of 10 garage or r'n'b winners.

CONDITION:

COVER: (VG+[+])...original flipback cover...front has some minor crinkles, a couple of creases, a couple of scuffs, a tiny split on the spine, and a tape-repaired split at the bottom...back cover has some pretty mild ringwear, a little bit of tape from that spine split, and a name and address at top right...
VINYL: (VG++)...that's a visual grading - actually plays about EX virtually ALL the way through...it's a very nice copy...and it sounds great!
LABELS: (Side One: M- / Side Two: M-)...small pencil markings on Side One label...

If you have any concerns about the accuracy of my gradings, please check my feedback for the odd nice comment from some satisfied folk out there.... (and hopefully you may be able to join their ranks).

You can pay in US$'s or UK pounds or Australian dollars.

Thanks for considering this item. Best of luck if you decide to bid...Cheers, Jules.

The Small Print

(it's a good idea to read this)

POSTAGE:

: first class airmail to USA, all of Europe, Canada, and UK = GBP7.30 / US$12.50
: first class airmail to Israel / South America / Central America / Africa / Continental Asia (Russia, Turkey, etc.) = GBP7.30 / US$12.50 -

...and...take note:
..postage costs come down considerably per LP/12" if you happen to win more than one...(for instance, to the UK/USA/Europe, etc., winning 2 x LPs/12"s means adding only GBP2.80 or US$5.00 extra postage for the second, and even less for a third)...

PAYMENT

OUTSIDE AUSTRALIA:
You can pay by: 1. Money Order (you'll need to add a US$4 exchange fee for a Western Union m/o or a US Postal m/o ; or a US$8 exchange fee for any other non-Australian dollar money order)
.. .. ..or.. .. ..
2. CASH (MUST be in a registered envelope..ONLY)
.. .. ..or.. .. ..
3. via Bidpay (aka Western Union Auction Payments) (you need to add a US$4 exchange fee for payments via WUAP/Bidpay)
.. .. ..OR.. .. ..
4. Paypal..easiest and cheapest way is to just use your normal account and select to pay in AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS, in which case there are no extra fees...BUT...if you wamt to pay in UK pounds (GBP) or U.S. dollars (US$)..you should know that Paypal unfortunately (for us all), charge we here in Australia, a hidden exchange rate fee which equates to 7% (.. ..it WAS originally 14%, then 11% until early Dec.2002); so it's not as bad as it was, but still a tad cheeky and unfair (this is NOT to be confused with their normal fees, which I will, of course, pay for); but, all the same, IF you’re prepared to cover that 7% exchange fee, you CAN use Paypal (it still works out cheaper [and obviously faster] than Bidpay or registering cash, for any amount below about US$100 / GBP55 )..its up to you, but PLEASE don’t think I condone their business practices; the other options are there for you to use. [My alternative, otherwise, is to allow them to take that much from every item..and they do not disclose that this is what they do. If you don’t agree with covering for this (and why should you!), please do consider another option.] IN AUSTRALIA:
Pay by Paypal (in Australian dollars...with NO fees to be added), Money Order, Bank Cheque, Personal Cheque (allow 5 days for clearance)...or Direct Deposit into our account (quickest method, along with Paypal).. .. ..or cash (again, MUST be in a registered envelope).
