PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL RECORDS ARE FULLY PLAY TESTED ON BOTH SIDES .

CONDITION DESCRIPTIONS ARE AS PER THE RECORD COLLECTOR RARE RECORD PRICE GUIDE.

The Poppies 7" There's A Pain In My Heart Rare USA ? Red Vinyl . There is no mention of a label on this or a country of manufacture , but the record catalogue number is FF1 . I am also unsure as to the year , I have put a ? purely because I have seen these types of labels before and they are usually from the USA , but obviously I can't be sure . The B Side is Spellbound . I must admit , I haven't seen one of these before .

Cover: Plain brown poly lined card sleeve in very good overall condition . There is a different song title and artist written small in biro along the top opening edges and a few light surface marks .

Record: The overall grade is very good condition . There are quite a few surface marks to both sides . It plays crisp and clear throughout , but there is some crackle noise in places on both sides , heard more on the usual run ins/offs . There is a tiny spot mark on each side . This appears to be actually on the vinyl itself . Someone has tried to get these off with a finger nail and has slightly marked the vinyl where the spot marks are , but luckily has not caused too much damage , just marked the surface a little . These spots do give off a few lightish ticks but are really just for two or three seconds , I must stress that they did not cause any jumps etc when played on my deck . None of this in my opinion is overly excessive and it still plays through fine . I did try to take a photo but they were just too small . The record as I say , does still play and sound great overall and the audio tones are still great to . There are as I say , no jumps etc when played on my deck and it still retains a decent shine . As you can see the record has a large centre hole and unfortunately I do not have any of the plastic spindle hole inserts at the moment , sorry for this . The rest of the paper labels are nice and clean . Obviously for the reasons stated , I am starting this off with a low price . Thank you very much for your time and interest and happy bidding . Please do read the following ref post and packing and item conditions explained , thank you .

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch.

Postage prices shown are for the UK and Europe only . Please note that any bids that exceed £19.99p GBP ( inclusive ) , will be sent via 1st class recorded in the UK and International signed for if outside the UK , this is due to Royal Mail now only covering up to £20 on Standard deliveries. Please be aware that the extra cost for this WILL be added on to the base rates that are shown if this is the case , thank you . Please do feel free to contact me for signed for extra charges prior to bidding . Please can you wait for my invoice before paying if i have to change the invoice to signed for , thank you . Please also note that I always obtain proper proof of postage when I post any items .

Please note, all records are packed in proper pro card mailers with a minimum of 3 stiffeners for LP’s and 2 for 7" singles ( more if i think they are needed ) . CD’s and DVD’s are sent in strong bubble wrap envelopes. These are also taped with brown parcel tape along all edges and seams for added protection. All are sent via RM 1st Class post or Airmail small packets as standard , unless signed for as previously explained .

Please note that I do not own a pro record cleaning machine , so whilst all my records are generally all clean and have a very nice shine , there obviously maybe some small traces of dust particles from cleaning manually if this is needed , though most , i do like to leave as they are , as i try to be very picky with the quality of records i sell ( unless stated otherwise ie very rare but some marks etc ) thank you .

Please note that whilst I haven’t increased my postage charges for quite a while now , this , now other recent price increase , has seen me , unfortunately , have to put a slight increase on my overall charges . This is also topped with the rise in cost for quality card mailers and stiffeners and Ebays new 10% extra fee for seller postage costs . Please also note that I now send ALL LP’s with a minimum of 3 stiffeners on all none GF LP's and all 7" singles with a minimum of 2 stiffeners , but I do obviously want to still remain competitive and still offer my usual top quality service . My apologies also to all my European friends , as there is now yet another steep increase on all postage outside of the UK , so again I am sorry for also having to increase my European postage prices .
