The Crazy World of Arthur Brown 1968 A1 B1 Track Records

I bought this LP new in 1968 and am now selling it as my vinyl record collection has to go - not enough room to house it and I can't keep dragging it around when I move - it's too heavy!!  This was actually the 3rd LP I ever bought.  The inner sleeve has gone decidedly brown over the years but it is the original polythene lined one it came in all those years ago.

STEREO

THE COVER   is in overall very good condition. Slight wear on the corners.

The front:    is laminated.  There are a few wrinkles and a small scratch on the 'Z' of 'CRAZY'.

The spine:
  
clean, undamaged

The back:   a few wrinkles at the edges.  Unfortunately, at the time I bought it I was so proud of my tiny record collection I stuck initial stickers on the bottom left corner.


THE VINYL:  spindle marks on both sides and another initial sticker on side 1. I've played it all the way through on both sides and there are no jumps or sticking points, plays really well and sounds great.  There are minor sleeve scuffs on both sides. 

*****

If you live in the Canterbury/Herne Bay area you are welcome to collect or I could possibly deliver to a convenient venue.


POSTAGE:  I do not charge for packing materials, time spent packing or walking/driving to the Post Office!  Ebay are now taking a postage fee of 10% of whatever a seller charges.  (Thanks to all the greedy sellers who were deliberately making money on the postage they were charging buyers.) 

UK:   I send items with a value of up to £45.00 by 2nd class Recorded/Signed For to UK addresses.   I will only post an item if it has the correct amount of insurance. This means that the actual postage could be more than quoted at the top of this listing.  The following prices for posting one LP in a mailer with a cardboard stiffener are from the Royal Mail's website.

Value up to £45 - postage will be £3.70 for Second Class Signed For

Value between £45 and £100 - postage will be £6.95 for Royal Mail Special Delivery Guaranteed by 1 pm

INTERNATIONAL: I send items by Airsure if it is available, which means that international postage can be very expensive.  I will only post to countries that are listed on the Royal Mail's website as providing a signed for service at point of delivery.  

If you are happy to pay the Airsure postage, I am happy to post to the following countries for the price shown in red:

EU: - Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Irish Republic, Latvia, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden

FEEDBACK POLICY:  feedback is the fastest way for me to know if your item(s) have arrived safely and after selling quite a few bits and pieces on Ebay I got a bit fed up with buyers who couldn't be bothered or were just too lazy or ill-mannered to leave me feedback so I now leave feedback only for buyers who leave feedback for me. You scratch my feedback and I'll scratch yours!!
