"DAMAGE DONE"

(1980 MERCIFUL RELEASE - RARE DEBUT 7" SINGLE!)

THIS IS ONE OF THE RAREST GOTH / PUNK SINGLES OF ALL.

ONLY 1,000 COPIES OF THIS SINGLE WERE EVER PRODUCED. THIS IS A SUPERB, ORIGINAL 100% GENUINE EXAMPLE OF THE DEBUT RELEASE "DAMAGE DONE" BY THE SISTERS OF MERCY.

I HAVE COLLECTED PUNK AND INDIE ALL MY LIFE AND IT IS NOW TIME TO, SOMEWHAT RELUCTANTLY, START SELLING OFF MY COLLECTION AND LET SOMEONE ELSE ENJOY THEM.

MINT (M) THE RECORD ITSELF IS IN BRAND NEW CONDITION WITH NO SURFACE MARKS OR DETERIORATION IN SOUND QUALITY. THE COVER AND ANY EXTRA ITEMS SUCH AS THE LYRIC SHEET, BOOKLET OR POSTER ARE IN PERFECT CONDITION. RECORDS ADVERTISED AS SEALED OR UNPLAYED SHOULD BE MINT.

EXCELLENT (EX) THE RECORD SHOWS SOME SIGNS OF HAVING BEEN PLAYED, BUT THERE IS VERY LITTLE LESSENING IN SOUND QUALITY. THE COVER AND PACKAGING MIGHT HAVE SLIGHT WEAR AND/OR CREASING.

VERY GOOD (VG) THE RECORD HAS OBVIOUSLY BEEN PLAYED MANY TIMES, BUT DISPLAYS NO MAJOR DETERIORATION IN SOUND QUALITY, DESPITE NOTICEABLE SURFACE MARKS AND THE OCCASIONAL LIGHT SCRATCH. NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ON THE COVER OR EXTRA ITEMS, WITHOUT ANY MAJOR DEFECTS, IS ACCEPTABLE.

GOOD (G) THE RECORD HAS BEEN PLAYED SO MUCH THAT THE SOUND QUALITY HAS NOTICEABLY DETERIORATED, PERHAPS WITH SOME DISTORTION AND MILD SCRATCHES.
