For sale - VG to VG+ condition. £180 plus post. Now folks, like most copies of this that I have come across, there is what looks like a crack, but being a fairly poor quality styrene press, this is likely to be a pressing fault given that so many copies seem to have it. There have been numerous mentions of this on this site over the last few years. The upshot is that a previous owner has attempted an unnecessary 'repair' on the B-side using a couple of blobs of glue - see the scans below. I have discounted the price accordingly as otherwise would probably look for £220+. PM if interested. Cheers. 01 A Frown On My Face.mp3
