Description

The experience of buying records on Ebay is ruined if, when they arrive, you discover that they are either not in the condition stated or have been damaged in the post! For this reason I describe all my items in detail, and only post using strong sturdy packaging. They are also from a non-smoking and pet-free home.
I accept returns and offer a full refund if you are not happy with your purchase.

The Smiths - 'The Headmaster Ritual' Holland 7" - 1985

Catalogue No. MD 5290 - Megadisc/CBS

This is a slightly obscure Smiths original release from 1985 which has a fairly bizarre sleeve design somewhat incongruous with the majority of the Smiths back catalogue. Being issued in a very thin paper sleeve, it is quite difficult to find one of these in good condition these days and it is also not very common to see them up for sale. Possibly many of these were played and discarded owing to the underwhelming nature of the sleeve, making this a nice find for completist Smiths collectors.

The vinyl and labels are in strong excellent condition, with just a couple of light superficial surface 'scuffs' on the vinyl in a few places. It is in the large centre-hole 'jukebox' format as issued. The labels are free from any marks or damage. The outer sleeve is also in strong excellent condition, with no serious signs of wear other than a few very light and unobtrusive creases. The record has been stored outside of its sleeve and there are consequently no tears or splits in the very thin red sleeve. Please see the accompanying photos; note that the Ebay ID lettering is just on the pictures and not the item itself.

All my auctions start at 1P and have NO RESERVE. They are all 100% genuine, original versions. Some are in mint/new condition and some are used; all will go to the highest bidder. I offer a money-back guarantee if anything is described incorrectly. Postage and Packing is free in the UK for untracked and uninsured standard postage, but please consider paying the 1.00 surcharge for tracked postage since there is, of course, nothing that can be done to find out what happened if the parcel is lost when standard postage is chosen. Shipping costs are greater for overseas buyers, but still good value; please check prices by using the options above or feel free to ask. I always take great care to package items well.

See my other auctions for related rare items here. If multiple auctions are won at the same time, I will charge only the postage cost for the heaviest item and pay the remainder myself. This is the case wherever you live.
