Vinyl Surfaces - EX


Audio Test: EX.  (Basic deck through Audio-Technica studio headphones) 

  • Album sounds great, nice bright sound with no skips or jumps 
  • Very light background noise on gaps between songs  but this does not take away from the enjoyment of hearing this classic as it was originally meant to be...in Analogue. Knocks seven bells out of the the CD version for 'real' feeling, the trade off being that with any vintage vinyl there'll be a bit of background noise in between tracks.   

Visual/Bright spotlights: EX  

  • Small-to-moderate  number of very light hairlines - the kind you get from careful handling and playing. 
  • No deep scratches or marks 
  • Excellent sheen


Labels - NM

• Both labels excellent  

• No mould, scratches or marks. 

• Colours and printed text all perfect 

• Tiny amount of wear on spindle holes 


Outer Sleeve - VG+

• Nice sleeve with fantastic sheen all round, no marks, rips, label marks or colour loss on front or back covers 

• Spine has a minimal wear, writing is perfectly visible 

• Corners have a TINY amount of wear 

• Has clearly been stored in a plastic sleeve and very well cared for. 


Vinyl Care/Preparation

• I hand-clean every vinyl listed using L'Arc Du Son cleaning solution. This removes old grease, dust etc. to improve the playback quality. This does sometimes leave residue marks, but these don't affect play. 

• Once cleaned, I 'buff' the Vinyl using a very soft cleaning-cloth, then place it into an anti-static black sleeve. This sleeve is supplied with the Vinyl you buy. 

•  I also carefully clean and dry the Vinyl outer sleeves to remove old finger marks, dirt and dust. Once done the sleeves are placed into a PVC sleeve to keep them nice and clean, they are shipped with the plastic sleeve. 

•  Vinyls are then listened to end-to-end before grading, in order to make sure they don't skip etc. BEWARE VISUAL-ONLY GRADINGS...some Vinyls that look Near Mint to the eye have skips, others that look marked play near-perfectly. I've learned that you can't grade a Vinyl without listening to it :) 

•  Finally, I take lots of pics and rip the Vinyl to 256kbps MP3 (budget deck only at the moment) and make a sample video, uploaded to YouTube to let you hear the quality of the vinyl surfaces and see HD large pictures of the item. 

•  All of the above is done to help buyers be sure of what they are getting before they spend hard-earned money! For this reason, I am not the cheapest on eBay and don't want to be. All offers are considered but please don't expect me to give them away :) 


Shipping & Payment 

• Well packaged in stiff, thick card mailer + Stiffeners for protection. 

• Vinyl will be removed from inner and securely packed during shipping to prevent splits 

• I combine shipping cost for multiple purchases - please contact me to let me know before paying and I will give you a quote.
