THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE PASTEL GREEN COLOURED LABELS ARE ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE. NOT ONE BLEMISH ON THEM AND ALL OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECT AND UNRUBBED. THE SPINDLE HOLE HAS NO SPIDER LINES AROUND IT WHATSOEVER.
THE VINYL
THE VINYL GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. IN DAYLIGHT IT IS NEAR FLAWLESS, WITH ONE LIGHT DULL STREAK ON THE LINKING GROOVE BETWEEN TRACK ONE AND TWO ON SIDE TWO, AND EVEN WHEN PLACED UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A COUPLE OF WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL LINES.
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.
I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH. I AM CONVINCED THAT ANY POTENTIAL BIDDER WOULD WELCOME THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE CONSIDERING BIDDING ON, BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE LP PLAYS THROUGH PERFECTLY ON BOTH SIDES, AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE SOUNDBITES WHICH DEMONSTRATE JUST HOW FANTASTIC THIS ALBUM SOUNDS.
THERE IS NO DISTORTION TO THE SUPERB STEREO REPRODUCTION AT ANY POINT.
NOR IS THERE ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE OR LOUD CLICKS.
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER, AND ONLY A FEW RANDOM SPLIT SECONDS OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC.
I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR ANY MORE THAN TWO TINY DUST POPS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH, APART FROM THREE REALLY TINY TICS IN THAT DULL STREAK I MENTIONED ABOVE
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS ALBUM NEAR MINT !!!!
BUT PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE THIS SUPERB DISC FOR YOURSELF
THE SLEEVE
UNLAMINATED TRI-FOLD SHOREWOOD SLEEVE
THE FRONT SURFACE IS IMMACULATE, ALL OF THE ORIGINAL COLOUR IS THERE AND UNRUBBED. THE TWO FRONT FLAPS ARE PERFECT AND HAVE NO DAMAGED EDGES.THERE IS A TINY DING TO THE TOP LEFT CORNER TIP
THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES OR DEEP CREASE LINES
THERE ARE ZERO LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINES ON BOTH SIDES OF THE SLEEVE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, NONE ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND JUST ONE TINY THUMB LINE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE FRONT FLAP
THERE IS NO RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE
THE TOP EDGE IS ABSOLUTELY MINT WITH ALL OF THE COLOUR THERE AND RUNNING FROM CORNER TO CORNER AND EVEN THE TIPS ARE UNBLEMISHED. THE BOTTOM EDGE IS ACTUALLY THE SPINE AND HAS SOME VERY LIGHT SHELF RUB, ALTHOUGH THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE
THE REAR SURFACE IS NEAR PRISTINE WITH JUST A FEW TINY LINES AGAINST THE LEFT AND RIGHT EDGES, AND A LITTLE DING TO THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER TIP
THE PLAIN WHITE INNER DIE CUT INNER SLEEVE IS THE CORRECT ISSUE FOR THIS ALBUM AND IS ALSO IN TOP CONDITION. NO SPLITS, NO CREASES, A LITTLE LIGHT AGEING AND A SMALL STICKER REMOVAL MARK IN THE TOP LEFT CORNERTHE RED LYRIC INSERT IS IN MINT CONDITION
I HAVE NO HESITATION IN GRADING THIS SLEEVE NEAR MINT
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
