Beatles Related 45 & PS John Lennon Cold Turkey Apple 1969 EX/NM!

Many great Beatles picture sleeves are up for sale this week.  ALL 45’s ARE IN AT LEAST EXCELLENT CONDITION!  These will be final upgrades.  The sleeves are not NM, but they are also pretty nice.

COMBINED SHIPPING: You can win up to 4 singles for one shipping cost of $4.16.  If you win multiple singles, please wait to be invoiced!  I have tried repeatedly to refund buyers who have paid multiple shipping costs, and it simply doesn’t work.  For whatever reason, PayPal does not recognize names or monikers, and will only accept phone numbers associated with PayPal accounts.  It’s too much of a pain in the butt to track people down, just to have them not want to give me their phone numbers (neither would I, to be honest), so just WAIT TO BE INVOICED.  Please and thank you.

Sleeve:  Excellent.  One of the toughest sleeves to find at all.  Because of the black glossy sleeve, when you do see one, it usually has at least moderate damage to it.  Not this one.  NO SPLIT SEAMS.  Very light amount of missing slick to all seams.  Extremely light record outdent to the front side of the sleeve, NONE to the other.  Extremely light label outdent.  This is where these sleeves get into serious trouble because of the serrations around Apple labels.  This sleeve was affected, but just barely.

Best of all, this is the scarcer thumb tab sleeve.

Vinyl:  NM.  Looks unplayed, save for a light manufacturer’s defect on side one.

Labels:  NM.  1969 brand new, factory-fresh looking.

Plates:  W3/ W3.  Los Angeles pressing.

Note:  All 45’s ship outside of their sleeves in order not to damage the sleeve during shipment. Generic plain, white sleeves and Mylar provided.

Please don’t bid unless you’re willing to honor your amount, okay? Thanks!

(Please note:  Regarding play-testing, my Technics turntable has somehow seized.  The tone arm is stuck in the up position, and I can’t get it to fully return to its cradle.  Is there anyone out there, who can tell me if this is an easy fix?  Thanks!) 

As these records have been in storage for many years, they will play back with crackling and tics, however; a good moisturizing and cleaning with either D4 Discwasher or a VPI machine always clears them up.  Thanks!)

Winners in all other countries will be charged actual shipping to their locations, so please wait to be invoiced.  You will be quoted for the cheapest shipping to your country that the US post office can afford me.  Please let me know if you would prefer to pay for a faster means of shipping, but do NOT ask me to declare packages as gifts, or any other means of defrauding the postal services.  Much appreciated.

I ship on Mondays and Thursdays.  This means that immediate payments will be shipped out the following morning, and later payments must wait until the first available Monday or Thursday after payment is received.  Please pay within 7 days of the auction ending.  I do leave negative feedback for non-payers.
