Item Description
BLUR - CRAZY BEAT / THE OUTSIDER - ORIGINAL UK 2003 RELEASE ON PARLOPHONE RECORDS.PICTURE SLEEVE RED VINYL 7 SINGLE ARE UNUSED UNPLAYED.PLEASE SEE PHOTOGRAPHS MORE MORE DETAILS.POSTAGE INFO NOTES Europe Royal Mail International Tracked 9.05.
I include below UK Record Collector magazine s grading system to assist in your bidding decision.MINT:
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
advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Minit.
itemsVERY GOOD:
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:
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.FAIR:
The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly
and displays considerable surface noise it may even jump.The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.POOR:
The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise,
etc.
The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.CDs
As a general rule, CDs and cassettes either play perfectly ? in
CASSETTES: which case they are in Mint condition ? or they don t, in
which case their value is minimal.
Cassette tape is liable to
deteriorate with age, even if it remains unplayed, so care should be
taken when buying old tapes.
CDs are difficult to grade visually: they
can look perfect but actually be faulty, while in other cases they may
appear damaged but still play perfectly.
Cassette andCD inlays and
booklets should be graded in the same way as record covers and sleeves.
In general, the plastic containers for cassettes and CDs can easily be
replaced if they are broken or scratched, but card covers and digipaks
are subject to the same wear as record sleeves.If
you request packaging over above the good standard l provide or
Recorded Delivery of any sort , please request this at first point of
contact and not after sending payment.
I don t want to make money from
excessive postal charging but l don t want to lose out either ie: more
packaging is larger heavier and has to be paid for, whatever mode
of delivery.
Thank you.

XXX::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::Hello XXX.
Thanks for the question.
There is no poster with this UK pressing from HMV, UK.
The record was not sealed when purchased.
I have to be honest as quite a Blur collector, I did not know a poster was
included in UK issue.
Do you have any further information?
Perhaps a catalogue number etc that firmly puts a poster in the first UK issue
when released here?
I ve just done some discogs etc trawling and I can t find anything so far.
Was it just a promotional item rather than part of UK stock copy issue?
Was it just included in other European vinyl 7 versions etc.
I ll cancel the auction if something is missing from the package that I did not
know about.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Regards, Brian, UK.
