A great condition copy of this 1967 Pretty Things psych rarity, this being the original "DEMONSTRATION NOT FOR SALE" copy. Vinyl is in superlative condition - near mint, in fact, having been barely played, gleaming and completely flat. Labels are pristine with no discernible spindle trails. Sound quality is equally impressive, as you would expect, with no clicks or background crackle/interference. Comes with original UK Columbia 7" advertising sleeve - no seam splits, just some minor creasing and very minor fraying on top edge.

POSTAGE COSTS :  

For the UK £2 using Royal Mail tracked 48; 

for continental Europe £7 using Royal Mail 1st class tracked, 

and for the rest of the world £10 using Royal Mail 1st class tracked. 

I do provide posting and packaging discounts for multiple purchases. I make no profit from postage.

Note that I always insert the vinyl into a new plain white poly-lined inner sleeve in order to protect the original during postage, and separate this from the outer sleeve to prevent seam splits. I use thick cardboard stiffeners and take great care in my packaging to ensure as far as possible that these precious records reach their destination in exactly the same condition as when they leave me.

 If you require any further information, including photos, then let me know and I'll do my best to oblige.

A bit about myself : I have been collecting UK vinyl for over 54 years from a variety of sources : my own collection, friends and family, car boot and garage sales, door-to-door leaflets, and even through placing an advert in my wife's shop window! My ebay feedback speaks for itself so rest assured that you are buying from a trusted seller and in the very unlikely event that you are unhappy with your purchase just e-mail me and I will sort out the problem. I offer a "no questions asked" refund policy. If you require any further information, including photos, then let me know and I'll do my best to oblige. There is NO RESERVE on this item. Richard
