87

Artist: U2 Title: 2 Sides Live Year: 1981 Label: Warner Bros. Number of Tracks: 13 Condition (Vinyl): 6/10 (some light surface marks and a few very light scratches on both sides, but plays beautifully - I usually don't use standard Goldmine grades, but due to the scarcity of this item I'll make an exception and grade it at a strong VG+) Condition (Sleeve): 8/10 (light corner wear on the bottom right and the very slightest of ring wear - still glossy and no creasing, sticker residue, rips, etc - beautiful) Notes: One of the most collectible U2 releases ever, this is the extremely rare Warner Bros. promo LP from 1981 featuring the band's March 6, 1981 performance at Boston's Paradise Theatre. Unfortunately, this does not come with the latter sized information sheets, but copies complete with those sheets are few and far between. Regardless, this is a very clean copy that has been well cared for and is 100% authentic - the matrix numbers match known good matrix numbers excactly, right down to the odd marks and symbols. PLEASE NOTE: Due to the value of this item, I am requiring insurance be purchased for the item for all bidders and only offering Priority Mail shipping for international bidders. That means it will be $4.00 to ship this in the US (or $8.00 for Priority), plus $3.00 for insurance, $22.50 to ship this to Canada plus $5.00 for insurance or $30.00 to ship this to the rest of the world plus $5.00 for insurance. If you're looking at this auction you no doubt already know the significance of this release, so don't miss out on your chance to own this slice of U2 history...

Condition/Grading

I grade both the media itself and the package/artwork separately. Each gets a grade from 1-10, with 10 being the best condition and 1 the worst. A new, unplayed record or CD will get a 10. A record or CD that's been played but is still in mint condition will get a 9. Things go down progressively from there. If there is a notable flaw, I will reference it after the number grade. I have given up on letter grading because I found that the definitions were too varied from seller to seller and buyer to buyer and think a number grade will give buyers a little better idea of what to expect.


Postage/Shipping

My shipping rates are clearly posted below:

If you don't agree with them, please don't bid. I do not ship CDs or 7" singles media mail, they always go at least first class. I can upgrade any domestic purchase to Priority Mail for an additional charge. All non-US winners get their items shipped via USPS First Class International Mail. The additional per item charge in this table is generally good for 4 or 5 items. If you buy more than that, the rate will go down further even further; send me a message for specific info. Also, unlike a lot of other sellers, I generally count double releases (those with two 7"s singles in a gatefold sleeve, two CDs in a single jewel case or double vinyl LPs) as just one item, but if it's a particularly lavish release (with posters, booklets and such, even if it's just a single disc) there may be an additional postage charge.


Check out my feedback and bid with confidence! Thanks for looking and good luck!
