THE BEATLES

PLEASE PLEASE ME

1963 GOLD PARLOPHONE LABELS

MONO ISSUE

Dick James publishing credit for the tracks 'Please Please Me' & 'Ask Me Why'

THE VINYL IS IN EXCELLENT- CONDITION. THERE ARE SOME VISIBLE SURFACE MARKS, BUT THESE DO NO HARM TO THE SOUND QUALITY WHICH IS EX+. I PLAYED THIS AND HEARD NO CLICKS, POPS OR JUMPS, AND THERE IS VERY LITTLE SURFACE NOISE, EVEN BETWEEN TRACKS.

THE SLEEVE IS VG. (SEE PHOTOS) THE FRONT IS VG+ WITH SOME EDGEWEAR AND SOME WEAR AND CREASING AT THE OPENING. THE BACK IS ONLY G WITH A REPARED SPLIT AT THE BOTTOM WHICH IS ALSO DISCOLOURED FROM A PAST REPAIR JOB USING SELLOTAPE. THE PREVIOUS OWNER ALSO WROTE THEIR INITIALS IN BIRO ON THE TOP RIGHT CORNER. (about 1cm x 2cm)

WITH ORIGINAL TRACING PAPER LINED 'EMITEX' INNER-SLEEVE

I'VE ONLY SEEN ABOUT 5 COPIES OF THIS AND THIS ONE IS THE BEST BY MILES, PARTICULARLY THE SOUND QUALITY.

  I have been a record trader for 30 years and I would say that my grading of records (ie judging the condition of records such as mint, excellent, vg, good, etc.) is accurate 99% of the time (nobody's perfect!) If you win an item and you disagree with my grading, please contact me so that we can resolve the matter amicably. I am always willing to offer a refund.

I send all my records in solid card mailers which are further strengthened with cardboard stiffeners. So you can rely on your prized item arriving in the same condition that it left me. I know how disappointing it is to receive damaged items that have been badly packaged, so I ensure that everything posted by me is professionally packaged and secure.

Any item sold for more than £20 to Italy, Russia or the United States will be sent by 'signed for' postage. This costs more, but I can't afford to lose any more expensive items.

 I HONESTLY ONLY CHARGE WHAT IT COSTS ME FOR POST & PACKAGING. CONTACT ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS.
