Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left // Orig 1st UK 1969 Pink Island LP Nice Copy

Description: Howdy from Sheriffs Records! And welcome to my record auctions. I pride myself on listing only the finest items. Collectability and Quality are the keywords. I have 20 years of experience selling high-end items all over the world to near 100% customer satisfaction. Grading is an art form that is to be taken very seriously, especially when it comes to high-priced items. All records on sale have been fully playtested and are guaranteed to not have playback defects such as skips, sticks, excessive surface noise and/or serious degrading in audioquality (not part of the original pressing). I am shipping from the Netherlands, not from the UK. Thank you. Please note: Shipping to the UK is not GBP9,50 but GBP18,50. Sorry, but that is the actual cost for me. Please refrain from buying if you cannot agree to this. I ship from the Netherlands, not the U.K. Thank you. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left // Orig 1st UK 1969 Pink Island LP Nice Copy Label/Cat#: ISLAND ILPS 9105 Matrix: A//2 + B//2 (Philips cutting) The Record: EX- (great gloss, few small surface marks on s1, s2 looks nearly spotless, audio is VG+ overall, s1t1-3 have the most noise with moments of repetitive clicks, s2 is much better tho not entirely without noise, no distortion) The Labels: EX (few lines around spindle) The Sleeve: VG+ (fragile and prone to wear, this one has lasted very nicely, just some age related minor issues, correct clean inner incl.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I use the Record Collectors Grading system with just one + or – behind the grade. Mint minus is the highest grade I will use for *any* used item. Records are critically viewed under strong halogen light. Mint (M): The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet. booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records marked as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint. Excellent (EX): The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing. Very Good (VG): 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. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects is acceptable Good (G): The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc. *** All the records I sell will be shipped behind their sleeve in a thick sturdy package which uses extra stiffeners and bubble foam. I know from experience it is much better to prevent damage, than having to go through the procedure of claiming insurance. However, all parcels will be sent insured regardless, just in case of extreme mishandling. *** *** I will ship almost everywhere. Please be reasonable enough to understand that I cannot be held responsible for long delays. *** *** I can and will not be held responsible for any amount of income tax that may be charged on your purchase. If you have any requests, please contact me about this before shipping. *** *** Sending Express/Courier is always possible. Please contact me prior to buying for the shipping price quota. ***
