Welcome to this listing:
David Bowie
The Man Who Sold the World
RCA Victor 1971
General info: This is the UK/US release with sleeve, inner and poster carrying LSP 4816 code and vinyl with both LSP 4816 and BPRS 4512 codes but with no Dynaflex logo. The vinyl has 2E/1E matric codes so this is an early copy and in great condition.
Sleeve: Excellent - there is one crease (more a pressure mark) top right
Inners/inserts: The original inner is Excellent as would the poster be if not for a tiny area of loss bottom right (it has not been used)
Vinyl: Excellent. A great copy.
We try to be as clear as possible in descriptions and any given gradings so buyers receive what they expect. Please read descriptions carefully and view the accompanying photos.
• In the unusual event that you are disappointed with your purchase, we make the returns procedure hassle free (and fully participate in the eBay money back guarantee). Please therefore bid or buy with confidence.
• All vinyl is supplied with a brand new polylined inner sleeve and a brand new 'clear glass' plastic cover for protection.
• All components are separated before packing to avoid seam splits.
• Quality bespoke record mailers with additional card stiffeners are used for packing.
• We play test some records fully and all records partially (due to time constraints) and focus on any areas where there are marks or wear on the surface, noting where these present a deterioration in the audio.
We appreciate that while the condition of the sleeves can be clearly seen on the photos, it is often difficult to pick up any marks on the playing surface or labels. Therefore, here is a general grading guide as to what to expect from our vinyl:
NM (Near Mint): appears barely played. There may be one or two visible spindle trails on the labels but will appear essentially as new.
EX (Excellent): a really solid copy with no visible marks except light lines under bright light. Plays well with very little if any lessening of the sound quality. May be a handful of spindle trails but no evidence of anything other than light previous use.
VG+ (Very Good Plus): May have a couple of visible marks and a higher number of light hairlines but still plays with strong audio, maybe some non invasive static/crackle in places but no repeating clicks. May have more spindle trails around the central hole hinting at fairly regular previous play.
VG (Very Good): The record will have some deterioration to the audio which may impact the listening enjoyment in some but not all areas. May be caused by light scratches or scuffs, these will be visible without the aid of bright light. There will be no jumps or loops unless specifically mentioned. A larger number of spindle trails may be in evidence around the central aperture hinting that it has ben well used in the past..
