Description

Since I've recently moved, I'm clearing out various stuff that has been collecting dust for long enough. In this case, it's the Damage Done/Watch single, the first release by The Sisters of Mercy, quite rare nowadays. It's their first single, and was produced in very limited numbers. It's certainly not their best record, I will admit that, but probably the most sought after. As you can see from the photos, this is not the 1980s bootleg with a more cropped picture on front. The vinyl has the groove inscriptions "anudder porky prime cut", "for trixie", "mr - 7 - words - 1" on the label side and "a porky prime cut", "for spiggy" and "mr - 7 - picture - 1" on the picture side. Any questions, please ask! I have a bunch of other The Sisters of Mercy stuff, too. Most of the singles, both on cd and vinyl, the Floodland flag etc, so if you're interested, send me a message and I'll put them up on eBay.

The administrative stuff. This record currently resides in Stockholm, Sweden, although hopefully it will soon be in your hands instead and I'll have some money for a new floor. There are two shipment options; registered mail or local pickup. No unregistered mail because problems have occured to me before on eBay with lost/stolen packages and it's a bag of hurt. Insurance is extra and the cost depends on the final price. My shipping costs will be what the postal office charges plus the cost of the packaging material (in the case of this record, I'd prefer to wrap it up rather well!), nothing else. No returns, so please ask your questions before bidding, not after you've already received your items and realize you'd prefer to buy a motorbike instead!
