BLACK SABBATH
MASTER OF REALITY
Warner Brothers BS 2562
Original 1971 LP
Still in Shrink Wrap with
Correct Inner Sleeve
and
Original Poster
Taking photos of the cover was difficult due to the black background and shrink wrap
giving it a mirror-like appearance. Please note the second photo.
The shrink wrap is peeled slightly in the upper right corner.
Where the shrink is peeled there is some edge paper rubbing.
The original "Warner Loss Leader" inner sleeve is correct for this 1971 release.
There are no splits on the inner sleeve.
The original 4 square large poster is included. This, too, is correct for the original 1971 release.
The poster has a very tiny rub in the center. Also has a small crease.
The three pictures of the poster show it 1) Completely folded out
2) Folded into two squares and 3) Folded into one square
The vinyl was cleaned and thoroughly play tested:
Visually, some light paper scuffs.
Nice playing condition.
In terms of surface noise:
On side one there is some light noise in the dead wax between tracks.
On side two, there is less. Any surface noise heard in the main body
of the tracks is fairly scarce and light.
VG+
Almost all records sold on ebay are rated visually. While this is a useful process for obvious flaws, such as scratches and rubs, it fails to detect hidden sound problems such as skips, pops and crackle. Crackle sounds somewhat like the sound frying bacon makes while cooking. The only way to accurately rate record quality, simply put, is to play it. I am a low volume seller and take the time to thoroughly test the sound quality of records. All records up for sale are play tested. I strive for accurate description of sound quality. Any record with excessive background noise is rejected and not offered for sale.
BE WARY OF SIGHT GRADED RECORDS Rating vinyl by visual inspection is a flawed process. Many times it results in an inflated grade.
All records are packaged in a commercial record mailer. Records are removed from the cover before packing to prevent seam splits during mailing. In the case of a single album, the record and cover are placed in a plastic sleeve. They are protected by the ample use of bubble wrap. If more than one album is won, the albums and records are tightly wrapped in cellophane to prevent shifting and are also protected by bubble wrap. The outside of the package is clearly stamped as 'FRAGILE' and 'DO NOT BEND'
Media mail shipping is $4.00 additional individual albums may be combined with minor additional shipping charges. Shipping discount up to 4 records. Additional record purchases will be packaged and charged separately with original mailing costs. This is due to limited record mailer depth.
You may return any album that does not play to your satisfaction. However, please email me with any problems you have in this regard before return. All albums must be returned in the time allotted and in the same condition and manner as they were shipped. This applies to individual LP's and lots. However, you may not split up lots for a partial refund. I will reimburse your purchase price and original mailing cost. Return mailing cost is the responsibility of the customer. I package records with great care and ship with delivery confirmation. I have shipped thousands of records without breakage or loss and the USPS does a great job with delivery
