I cannot say i will have definitely noticed all imperfections as somebody else will but will be as honest as i can.
Scary MonstersVisually the vinyl does show signs of damage and a number of surface marks and scratches can be seen. Surprisingly most of the vinyl plays VG+ and if not certainly VG with some crackle noticed and a good scattering of pops and clicks, most minor and very few worse than a quiet click. However, on side 1 there were two concerning areas heard which i shall now describe which do mean that overall this vinyl should be graded as fair. On track 1 of side 1 a few minor clicks were heard together at the very beginning and later on in this track there was a skip/jump but does play through this. Also on the last track on side 1 the vinyl sticks in two places, once at the beginning before the vocals and another time soon after the vocals start.
Ziggy StardustOn playback of side 1 crackle can be heard at the beginning of the side and through much of track 1 though becomes less apparent as the track progresses and there were about 5 or 6 mostly quiet clicks together, some a little louder than others, on this track and the crackle and surface noise does continue but is much less noticed after track 3. A single click was heard towards the end of track 3 and on the last track o0n this side there were a number of maybe minor clicks heard rather than pops which were very quiet and had a limited detrimental affect and there were 3 or 4 places on this track where there was 5 or more together.. On playback f side 2 crackle was noticed again at the beginning of the side which does continue but becomes less apparent as the track progresses but can be noticed on the rest of the side, mostly in the gaps and quiet parts. There was 5 or 6 minor or very quiet clicks together on the very last track. i would grade this vinyl as VG.
Cleaned with an ultrasonic vinyl cleaner (both LPs).
Will be posted by royal mail in one record mailer with stiffener or collection from L17.
I do postage discounts if you are buying from more than one vinyl listing and can usually fit 2 x 12" into one mailer - please request an invoice with regards to any postage discounts. As a general rule there will be no additional charge for posting one or two 12"vinyls and to post 3 or 4 would usually cost an addtional 85p compared to posting one to cover the cost of the additional mailer used. Any enquiries just ask.
