In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. In the unlikely instance that you feel the need to open a resolution dispute before working with us, you will immediately be blocked from any further chance to acquire the rare music we present each and every week. Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Please keep in mind our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office.Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has became very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable and will result in blocking the bidder. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our 8000 plus positive feedback. We use a VPI machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery. We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music!

HIGHEST QUALITY VINYL PRESSING (see: AUDIOPHILE) Japan scarcity of the legendary 1967 WHO ~ "SELL-OUT" album ...This Japanese pressing blows away the USA issue:
Superior supersonic Japanese vinyl with lyrics pages insert ....Japanese vinyl releases are premium quality pressings, much sought after by audiophiles and collectors alike. In the 1960s Toshiba pioneered top quality red vinyl pressings using their trademark ‘Ever-Clean’ process this utilised a special ingredient intended to prevent the build-up of static electricity on the vinyl. Japanese pressings are synonymous with quality - the vinyl shines like no other vinyl - everything about their releases feels special. When US audiophile label Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab first released their series of high quality pressings the records were manufactured in Japan. The sonic quality of Japanese pressings is considered to be among the best in the world and, in addition, they are beautifully presented, their covers usually printed on better quality heavy stock paper and often including a bonus lyric insert with dual language Japanese & English text. This is a NICE collectible that is not getting any easier to find...future investment item....***Includes the all important original outer "OBI" strip to the pressing...

The mighty WHO featuring one of the best, most important, and thoroughly entertaining albums, peaking with the timeless smash gems, "I Can See For Miles" and "I Can't reach You" but don't stop there boys, there's nuggets up and down both sides...
So this is what happens if you let Mods go psychedelic -- rather than do a half-hearted jump on the bandwagon they will instead give you a full-fledged parody of the music world around them. Disguised as a show on a pirate radio station, complete with jingles and faux advertisements, The Who Sell Out shows that Pete Townshend was a keen listener to the music of 1967, because much of it shows up in more or less disguised form on this album -- The Piper at the Gates of Dawn and Sgt Pepper being some of the more obvious examples -- but almost always the context will be a funny one. Call it a step ahead, if you wish.
For The Who themselves, the album was a handy device to bridge what must have been a transitional period for them; this was at the time when they were just shedding their R&B-influenced Mod personalities, but they hadn't quite become the rock gods yet that Tommy would make them. That transition is also noticeable in the music, as a surprising number of themes and riffs from earlier songs show up on this album, and riffs that would be more fully developed on Tommy also make a first appearance here.
The Who Sell Out leaves a very strong artistic impression; it is a very clever, entertaining record with punch and some really great hooks. "I Can See for Miles" the obvious LP highlight -- they've never been this entertaining ever since this album.
