This is an original LP pressing in very nice overall condition! Manufactured in Holland specifically for the UK market. The LP has a shiny matt sleeve which has no barcode on the rear sleeve. It has its original Lyric/ Picture Inner Sleeve. This is printed on paper. The record is pressed on thick vinyl & has 1st press A/ B matrix stampers.
A genuine 1st pressing of this highly regarded Heavy Metal/ Thrash LP. I have some other rare & collectable 1980's Heavy Metal/ Thrash etc.. LP's for sale. This includes some other "Agent Steel" LP's. Please see my other listings.
Sleeve: There are two small areas (1.5 cm & 2 cm) of more moderate rubbing wear on the bottom edge. This is at the spine & sleeve opening areas. There is light, mild or very mild rubbing wear to the corner tips. There are 4 light 1 cm hairline creases at the spine area. Otherwise, the spine is in near excellent condition overall. The spine text is completely legible. There is some light, very mild or very minor ringwear on some areas. NEAR EXCELLENT condition.
Vinyl: There is one very light 6 cm hairline surface mark on Side 1. There is one light 5 cm hairline surface mark on Side 2. Otherwise, there are some light, very mild or very minor sleeve rubs which can hardly be seen under a strong light. Overall, Very Good++ condition. The labels are in Excellent condition and show light or very mild spindle wear only.
The Picture/ Lyric Inner Sleeve is in Excellent+ condition. It shows light or very minor ringwear & fading. There are no seam splits.
I have play tested this LP in its entirety & it plays Very Good++ to Near Excellent overall, & Excellent in many places. There is some light, very mild or very minor crackle in some quieter places. There are no clicks or pops. Overall, a Very Near Excellent audio copy.
I shall place the record into a separate plain paper inner sleeve. This will protect the original inner sleeve from any damage during the shipping process.
Traceable insurance is already included in the stated P&P price for this listing.
Discount is given on P&P for multiple purchases. I shall always weigh combined purchases to get a completely accurate price. So please wait for the invoice to be sent before paying. Please see below for a more detailed description.
AN INVOICE WILL BE SENT TO YOU VERY SOON AFTER THE AUCTION ENDS. PLEASE WAIT FOR THIS BEFORE PAYING.
Royal Mail have very recently increased their postage rates. So I have revised my postage costs to reflect their increases. (Please note that these prices include packaging costs too)
Double LPs are classed as two LPs. Also gatefold sleeves, posters, inserts, etc.. can increase postage costs. One parcel must not exceed 2kg (approximately 4-6 LP's).
Please note that there are now VAT import charges from the UK into all EU countries. Anything under 150 Euros will need an IOSS number. VAT is paid at point of sale. For any items over 150 Euros in value. There will be a customs charge too. These vary, I believe, from country to country. Please check your relevant postal service online for details. Please note that these charges are beyond my control and are now the law for outside parcels going into the EU.
All records will be sent in high quality vinyl mailers with at least two card stiffeners either side of the LP or 7" Single. I use a cruciform box for larger orders (3-6 LPs). All parcels will be marked "Fragile" and dispatch time will generally be between 1-3 days after payment.
I will also remove the vinyl from the sleeve & place them in a re-sealable polythene sleeve. In order to prevent seam splits. Depending on the inner sleeve; I often remove the vinyl from the inner sleeve & place it in a separate plain paper, or polythene-lined, plain inner sleeve. I am very conscientious and careful when packaging your LP(s).
I consider my postage & packaging costs to be very transparent & very fair. Packaging costs will generally be between £0.80 to £1.50. I am not adding any further costs for handling, etc...
If you are uncertain about any of the above, or just simply want some information regarding any item, please do not hesitate to contact me. I welcome any questions.
Remember to check out Lots of rare & quality vinyl! Most are UK 1st Pressings. It is quite likely that there will be more records by this artist, or records in a similar vein.
