Hello!  Please note, that I will be doing TWO sets of auctions this week!  This auction will end on late Wednesday 11th July UK time.  Of course, I usually end my auctions on Sundays.  However, as I have a large amount of AWESOME extra LPs, I will be doing 2 AMAZING sets of listings this week on both Wednesday 11th and Sunday 15th!!!!  So don't forget to check back before Wednesday - to see some incredible items added to BOTH auctions!  Please read on about this AMAZING item below, and GOOD LUCK if you decide to bid:-

On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by The Rolling Stones called "Flowers" and is an ORIGINAL 1967 UK EXPORT 1st Pressing on the 1st Press UNBOXED 'Grooved' Decca label!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  THIS IS ONE OF THE ROLLING STONES RAREST LPs EVER MADE - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!!  JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!!  IT WAS ONLY MADE IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS (STRICTLY FOR EXPORT ONLY!) - AND IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND AS A UK EXPORT 1ST PRESSING!!!!  LATER PRESSINGS ARE COMMON - BUT THEY HAVE NO GROOVE ON THE LABEL AND DATE FROM 2 OR 3 YEARS AFTER RELEASE!!!!  BUT THIS ONE IS A 100% GENIUNE UK EXPORT 1ST PRESSING - WITH AN ULTRA RARE 'GROOVED' UNBOXED DECCA LABEL (NOT A LATER ONE!) - AND BARELY ANY WERE EVER MADE LIKE THIS!!!!  SO DONT UNDERESTIMATE JUST HOW AMAZINGLY RARE THIS LP REALLY IS!!!!  IT WAS NEVER GIVEN A DOMESTIC UK RELEASE - AND WAS ONLY EVER 1ST PRESSED IN THE UK, IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS FOR EXPORT ONLY!!!!  AND THIS IS EXACTLY WHY THIS LP IS OF THE UTMOST RARITY AS A UK EXPORT 'EARLIEST' MONO 1ST PRESSING - BECAUSE BARELY ANY WERE EVER MADE!!!!

THIS LP IS MADE EVEN RARER STILL, AS IT IS 1ST PRESSED IN MEGA RARE MONO (MOST EXPORTS WERE IN STEREO!) - AND IS ALMOST NEVER SEEN IN THIS FORMAT!!!! 

AND ALTHOUGH THIS LP ISN'T IN MINT CONDITION - IT PLAYS THROUGH FINE (NO STICKS AND NO JUMPS!), IS STILL VERY BRIGHT & SHINY LOOKING INDEED, AND HAS A VERY PRESENTABLE COVER!!!!  AND OF COURSE, THIS LP IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN MEGA RARE MONO, SO IT IS DEFINITELY WELL WORTH CONSIDERING!!!!   THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1967 UK EXPORT MONO 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS UNBOXED 'GROOVED' DECCA LABEL, 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE, AND 1ST PRESS 'ROBERT STACE' LAMINATED EXPORT MONO COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!  This is the ORIGINAL Decca UK EXPORT 1st Pressing from 1967!!!!  The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl.  The Cat. No is LK 4888 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press UNBOXED Decca label (see picture) and is a much MUCH rarer UK MONO 1st Pressing!!!!

The record labels (see pictures) have NO writing, some minor damage to the centre hole (the record still slides on snugly and does not move about!), NO wear, and only a few VERY light spindle marks!!!!  The vinyl is still VERY bright & shiny looking and plays through FINE!!!!  The record has NO nasty concentric marks AT ALL, only 2 or 3 small lateral hairline type marks, NO nasty 'tick' marks AT ALL, a few scufflines, only 2 or 3 surface marks, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  Most strangely of all there are some lighter grooves in a band on 1 side ONLY, and these are strange because this DOES NOT affect play AT ALL!!!!  So I can guessing this is a manufacturing error - rather than from any wear!!!!  The record plays with NO sticks, NO jumps, only a few light clicks/pops (though mostly NONE!), NO skips, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!!  The record must grade Fair if not better - though despite this grading, it is still VERY bright & shiny and plays through FINE, with NO skips and NO jumps AT ALL!!!!  AND OF COURSE THIS LP IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN MEGA RARE MONO!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  The ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Robert Stace' Laminated EXPORT MONO Cover is in GREAT condition overall - and is still a VERY presentable cover indeed!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, NO splits, slight corner wear, NO rips, NO tears, slight dulling to the laminate, NO stickers, only a few light creases (cover is still VERY flat looking!), NO annotations, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!!  Even the unlaminated back of the cover is in GREAT condition with NO ringwear, 2 or 3 MEGA faint 'age traces', NO yellowing, slight rubbing (especially towards the top), NO sticker tears, NO sticker marks, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must grade Good+ (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - and is still a VERY presentable cover indeed!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE (ESPECIALLY IN MEGA RARE MONO!) - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!

HAVE A LOOK AT MY PICTURES - I DO MY BEST TO SHOW THE RECORD FROM ALL ANGLES AND MAKE THE PICTURES AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE - THERE IS NOTHING TO HIDE!!!!  It really is a GREAT looking LP and it is truly rare to find any copies of this MEGA RARE LP!!!!  THIS WILL BE YOUR ONLY CHANCE TO BUY AN ORIGINAL 1967 UK EXPORT MONO 1ST PRESSING OF "FLOWERS" BY THE ROLLING STONES!!!!  Dont forget to take a look at all my other items including many other TOP LPs and contact me with any queries you may have.  Postal discounts for multiple buys are always available - and I guarantee to ALWAYS undercharge on postage!  Paypal, Bank Transfers, Cheques, International Money Orders, and Postal Orders accepted.

Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items (I always try my very best to describe everything exactly!) - PLEASE REMEMBER to contact with me FIRST, if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one!  I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem!  This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy!  Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem.  Thanks again - Graham @ XXXRecords.

PLEASE NOTE - Private feedback bidders must consult me first prior to bidding - due to previous problems regarding non-payment, and non-receipt.   MY POSTAGE UNDERCHARGE GUARANTEE TO ALL BUYERS (I always undercharge on postage!):-  Due to UK Royal Mail's obscene price increases this year - I have had no choice but to increase postage charges a little.  Until this year - I had kept them exactly the same since I joined ebay back in 2002.  However this years price increases have been so obscene, that I have had no choice but to increase my postage charges for the first time ever.  However PLEASE NOTE - my absolute 100% guarantee to you as a buyer - is that I will ALWAYS undercharge postage on everything I send out.  Even after the increases, I am still charging you the buyer LESS than I am being charged myself.  On each package I send out - the price is clearly stated on the front of the package (please check it when you recieve it!).  I also do NOT charge for packaging costs - ONLY for postal costs!  And should you find that I have overcharged you postage in ANY way - I will refund DOUBLE the difference.  THAT IS MY 100% POSTAL GUARANTEE FOR EACH AND EVERY BUYER!  No buyer EVER deserves to be overcharged on postage - and on my listings, I'll make sure they are ALWAYS undercharged.  Any questions - please ask!
