I recently buy the white album but i want to know how much does it really cost (i purchase it for $40+$20 shipping)
it has the number 4550 enbossed with the "o" on top of a big dot, so i can assume is the first version.
it the holland version, serial number 1A 138-04173 and 1A 138-04174
he told me that in those days, this album come with a german cover (aparently because all european covers (except uk) were from Germany), serial number 1C [172-04 173/74] stereo
the problem here is that i try to investigate (after i made the purchase) about a this version and i can say i found almost nothing, except:
the serial number appears in "1980's" or 1977

and there is a "holland disk, german cover" white album

so far i think its a reissue with numbered cover ... but i really dont know, someone know more about this version or know at least if it is a reissue or the first issue
but on the bright side the disks are near mint and sound fantastic (both of them :teeth1: )
and if you need pics for the album itself (apologies from some pictures are blurry):

and
a person is trying to sell me a Corgi Yellow submarine, he said: "its looks like is from the 70's, i cant remember, it was a gift when i was a child..."
he ask like $50 for it, but is not in a good state, the hatch are kinda loose and the colors are a little faded, should i buy it?
thx in advance for your answers
