Description

VINYL HIfi2200 VINYL

 

 

Hifi 2200 has been collecting vinyl since the 1960s, is a part time seller and full time collector and based in Fife, Scotland,

I always take care to describe accurately and grade the records according to The Record Collector Magazine grading system.

 

Artist……………The Beatles

Record Title…...HELP

Record Label….Parlophone

Date…………….. 1965 

Catalogue No…PMC 1255

Matrix………….549 - 2   550 -2  KT tax on label side 1

 

Overall description- Play tested and it plays well. Vinyl is excellent, virtually unmarked. Labels - side one with KT is excellent, side 2 has a faint label mark above the Parlophone symbol.

The Garrod and Lofthouse front cover is very clean with just a few creases, the back has a small mark.

 

 

I have devised a good packing system, using recycled cardboard/ plastic and have sent records to all parts of the United Kingdom and to France, Holland, Spain, Germany, Italy, Austria, Greece, Norway, Finland, Sweden, Australia, Ukraine, Poland, Israel, America and Japan with not one problem (strong packaging).

 

Got a testimonial from a record shop that has bought several albums.

 

“Hello Ronnie, I buy a lot of vinyl on E Bay. 7 of of 10 - let's say let me down with over graded or bad packing or both. What you sent today and the way it was packed was simply a great effort and I would like to say a big THANK YOU. John”

 

Record Collector Magazine Grading system

Mint (M)

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 marked as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

Excellent (EX)

The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

Very Good (VG)

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 (G)

Te 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, discolouration, etc

Fair (F)

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.
