GENESIS: SELLING ENGLAND BY THE POUND
I will try my best to describe this record as honestly as possible. Photographs are included to help you assess condition and value. I accept that sometime issues like "sound quality" can be subjective so I offer a no quibble return policy if your purchase does not meet your expectations.
Overview: Beautifully preserved 1st 1973 UK pressing, it belonged to a collector who transferred his records to cassette and will have only ever been played a handful of times. Vinyl, sleeve and labels look close to mint. Excellent audio with a punchy, warm yet detailed - all analogue sound. Collectable condition.

The record will be posted out in a professional cruciform mailer (pizza box style) with high quality rigid corrugated card stiffeners, I will take every precaution to safeguard your purchase. If the album is not new and sealed I will remove the discs from the sleeve and house in plain white sleeves if they come with custom inner sleeves. I'll also include a protective PVC outer.
I don't spend all day hooked up to my computer but will guarantee to answer any questions within 24 hours.
I unconditionally guarantee anything I sell, so buy with confidence.
