Couple of words about me: 

I'm coming back with selling on eBay after a break just to unload some of my collection. Don't worry about overgrading, fakes or even unproper packing. I know the bussiness. So many records bought and sold already since 2003 :).

I used flat postal service: 5GBP to Europe and 10GBP outside for single LP. Records will be well packed without chance on any damage (or at least such a chance will be minimalised). I used only Priority email so records should arrive pretty fast, and of course "Signed-For".

On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by Steppenwolf called "Steppenwolf" and is an ORIGINAL 1968 UK MONO 1st Pressing on the 1st Press Black RCA label!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!! THIS WAS STEPPENWOLF'S FIRST & RAREST LP EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!! JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!! BACK IN 1968 WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED IN THE UK, IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS - AND WAS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY DELETED!!!! AS A RESULT IT IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE TODAY!!!! THIS LP IS MADE EVEN RARER STILL - AS IT IS THE 'EARLIEST' UK 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE, WITH 1/1 MONO MATRIX ENDINGS, AND A NON-SILVER LAMINATED COVER (UNLIKE U.S. 1ST PRESSINGS NO 'SILVER' COVERS WERE EVER MADE AS A 1ST PRESSING IN THE UK!)!!!!

NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN GREAT CONDITION - AND STILL A VERY VERY DECENT EXAMPLE INDEED!!!! JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!! THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1968 UK MONO 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS BLACK RCA LABEL, 1ST PRESS 1/1 MONO MATRIX ENDINGS, 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE, AND 1ST PRESS 'CLOUT & BAKER' LAMINATED MONO COVER!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!! This is the ORIGINAL RCA UK 1st Pressing from 1968 and is in GREAT condition!!!! The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The Cat. No is RD 7974 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Black RCA Label (see picture) and is a UK MONO 1st Pressing!!!! 

The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a few VERY light spindle marks!!!! The vinyl is in GREAT condition!!!! Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, only 2 or 3 MEGA light hairlines, only 2 or 3 VERY light NON sounding scufflines, only a few TINY pressing marks (clearly from manufacture, absolutely TINY, and completely NON sounding!), and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL JUST PRESSED LOOK!!!! It is also GREAT to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual!!!! The record plays with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some VERY slight background sound on the run on grooves & gaps - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!! The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!! The record must MEGA STRICTLY grade Very Good ++(PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - and is still a very VERY decent record indeed, that plays BRILLIANTLY!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! The ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Clout & Baker' Laminated MONO Cover is in GREAT condition!!!! The cover has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only slight corner wear (NOT through the colour!), only a few VERY light creases (cover is VERY flat looking!), shiny laminate, NO splits, only some very VERY minor evidence of 'tipping in' to the corners, NO rips, NO tears, and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering!!!! Even the unlaminated back of the cover is in GREAT condition with NO yellowing, NO grubbyness, only some typical slight rubbing (almost UNAVOIDABLE on this cover type!), and NO writing!!!! The cover must grade Very Good++ (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - and is still a VERY decent cover indeed, with NO major defects AT ALL!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
