Razormaid Class X Series CX-3 --- VG+ Rare 1987 2x 12" --- RM-CX-3
Flaws  ---  Both vinyl are VG+.  Inner sleeves and outer jacket, the originals, are VG.   This and all Razormaid items I list were major-league working records/CD's for me in the clubs and yes, I was a subscriber, but no, I don't have everything they did.
Music:
A1 The Quick  -  Young Men Drive Fast A2 Talk Talk  -  Talk Talk B1 Seona Dancing  -  Bitter Heart B2 The Twins  -  Face To Face, Heart To Heart C1 Frankie Goes To Hollywood  -  War C2 Leisure Process  -  Love Cascade D1 Nick Straker Band  -  Leaving On A Midnight Train D2 Miro Miroe  -  Nights Of Arabia

The Quick  ---  England  ---  Colin Campsie and George McFarlane.  One actual new wave 'hit' single, "Bed Of Nails".  After The Quick ran its course, the gents formed Giant Steps and had real hits, starting with "Another Lover".
Talk Talk  ---  England  ---  R.I.P. Mark Hollis, 25 February 2019.   One of the top new wave bands that almost inexplicably went ambient basically when they were at their peak.
Seona Dancing  ---  England  ---  William Moat (a.k.a. Bill McRae) and Ricky Dene Gervais ; Yes indeed, THAT Ricky Gervais.  Two singles in 1983 and that was that.  One of the titles, "More To Lose", the original 12" copies go for over $300.
The Twins  ---  West Berlin, Germany  ---  Two gents from the prog rock band Mythos went all new-wavy.  The Twins ran up eight albums and a whole bunch of singles, including at long last, an extended remix of 'Blue Girl', the track many fans say was one of their best songs.
Frankie Goes To Hollywood  ---  England  ---  Relax, two tribes (are going to) war.   ;-)
Leisure Process  ---  England  ---  Gary Barnacle and Ross Middleton.  Mr. Middleton was more sedate in his music business life.  Mr. Barnacle, on the other hand, it's probably easier to list the bands and artists he did NOT play with, produce, etc.  Srsly.
Nick Straker Band  ---  England  ---  The group comprised of members from Limmie Funk Limited and the folks who one-hit-wondered the song 'Straight Lines', Tony Mansfield's group called New Musik.
Miro Miroe  ---  England  ---  Ms. Berenice Nally and Mr. Ian Ritchie.  Ms. Nally had a few singles after Miro Miroe.  Mr. Ritchie went on to be one of the most sought-after session and live musicians and producers on the planet.

Now for the not-reduced-to-ultra-fine-print business part - this is on every listing I run up - so you can be sure nobody gets screwed over and I don't get taken to the cleaners by folks who would do so to get stuff for free, or worse, make a seller look bad for whatever reason (yes, it happens and that's sad).   I'll also never and I mean never ever notaneffingchance - I'll never engage a 'bid-bot' in the blind to run up an auction price.   That's about as lowlife as anyone can get in business and says a lot about them as a person.
I'm offering new wave and prog rock (and some other styles including a few titles of very early-in-the-game techno/rave) CD's and vinyl.
Most of what's offered will be set in at auction.   Some items may start as low as $2.99.   From time to time, items will be run up at a fixed price and without question, at time of listing will be the lowest price - period - and will keep checking to make sure that's the case.  If I'm undercut by other sellers, I'll leave mine off the board until theirs sells.  Go for it, that's what it's all about.  No harm no, foul on my end.  See the shipping part below for what's up there.
I don't accept offers.  Why won't I accept offers ?   Just being honest:  Staying on top of my 'store' here is difficult enough.   Sellers get screwed sometimes without realizing it and when sellers decline offers, customers can get corked off, start cussin' n' stuff......  It becomes overwhelming and more than once at the start, I considered chucking it all.   So no offers entertained, and please don't ask.    I won't reply anyway (and if that-all makes me seem the a-hole, then so be it).
You might notice I'm going a tad over the top with most descriptions and sometimes the amount of photos on many listings.   That's solely so you know which end is up.   Not gonna hide anything.   Any missing artwork, pieces, parts, etc., and/or any real flaws on all items will be noted in plain language and sight in the description panel and of course, in the photos.
I was a nightclub DJ on LawnGuyLand NooYawk back when new wave was new and almost every new wave title I have - vinyl and CD - 95% of 'em - were "working" items.   I'll never ever offer for sale any item I wouldn't buy myself,   I'd rather just give 'em away or toss 'em in a dumpster.   Please see the photos on each new wave/club-use item listed, you'll understand.   If CD jewel cases or inner sleeves on vinyl were replaced with new, that will be noted as well.  More......
On most of the new wave CD's and vinyl, there's stickers with my hand-written notes (BPM, Artist/Title, version, etc.). It was easier to see that in a dark club/DJ booth than pulling the rekkid itself.   I make no apologies for doing the sticker thing - it helped.   I know I wasn't the only one doing this kind of thing either.
No warranty expressed or implied on any item offered.   All sales final.   No returns.
Buyer is responsible for any sales taxes and/or VAT due.  Shipping not included in price, be it an auction or fixed price listing.
NewWaveAndProgRockDJ (meaning yours truly) absorbs the cost of cartons/packing material. It might not seem like much, but if you've never sold items before, the cost of padding material, packaging, new CD jewel cases, carton sealing tape and mailing labels, etc., that stuff adds up rather quickly.   Also, let's not kid ourselves:  Of course that cost is built into the opening bid price.   From very early in 2021 to now, the costs of packaging materials has pretty much doubled.  So, additional pricing is being built in as part of the shipping cost.   Put it this way:  A listing selling for $2.99, the direct cost of packaging a CD the proper way is close to half of that.  Vinyl:  At least half.  Then add the cost of going to the post office, 'my time' doing everything, etc.  Not making any excuses, this is reality and I have this thing about at least breaking even.  Know what I mean ?
And as far as actual packing goes, I'm kinda sorta maybe pretty good at making sure your item(s) leave here with their seat belts properly fastened, seat in the upright position and tray-table secured to the seat in front. Tain't my first rodeo with ye olde shipping/receiving/logistics thing.
NewWaveAndProgRockDJ (again, meaning yours truly) is not responsible for any delays, non-receipt, permanently lost in the bilge of a slow boat to nowhere, nor damage incurred by your items during shipping and transit to you via any carrier.  And adding to that:
Here's an important note for international customers:  Please be advised that customs departments here and on your end will quite probably open your package for inspection.  Once your package is documented as received by our postal service here for transfer to the eBay international system, NWAPRDJ does not and will not assume any responsibility of any kind, financial or otherwise, for any and all delays, issues and/or damages caused by any national or private postal service, customs division or other agency, including contract carriers, that had possession of your package even for a single second.
Re-sellers welcome. If you think my opening bid/fixed pricing makes me seem off my meds - meaning I'm way under what something should go for - please by all means grab it and go for it.  It's all good.
Lastly.... To all customers, first-time, occasional, and long-time:  If you're bidding on multiple items, of course I'll combine the items to a single transaction, discount shipping, etc.  Plus, and if it's a decent total dollar amount and if you're in the continental 48 states of teh choo-ess-aay, I might be a real good guy and cover the overall shipping cost.  When you're all set - bid items won - don't complete the transaction(s).   Let me know and I'll send you an invoice.
International customers, shipping will also be combined, however, I have no control over the cost there.  Sorry.    (Note to customers in Canada:  As far as I know, there's still a limit of five items per shipment, everything must be declared on a specific form that has no add-on page.)
