Description

I love this old Prestige stuff ... I mean, who doesn't? And this here is a bargain copy. The sleeve has some issues, but this LP is a solid VG playing copy. There's some slight crackle, but overall it's pretty solid. ... highly suggested this one, it's well worth the price of admission.

See below for more detail:

VINYL: VG (6.5 of 10) OG Prestige press, 50th address, RVG hand etch (on one side, stamp on the other) in runout, flat edge, Deep Groove press. Has some light scuffing. Maybe a small amount of light scratches, but overall it's still a very pleasant record to listen to. It's not a chore to listen to, and definately a step (or two) above a filler copy.
COVER: Lower VG (5.8 of 10) So there's a few issues with the jacket (some are repaired!). When I got it, the entire spine was split -- however I repaired it with seamzeasy strips (google them if you don't know, they're great). There's still some smaller areas with chipping and such, but overall it's good. Art is all solid, the back actually looks pretty good, but there's a tear on the front opening, on the front and back. Aside from that, the gloss is great, and it still is nice-ish. ... I really think this is a decent copy for most people, even despite the blemishes.
_________________________________________________________________ Now the standard messages:

GRADING: Yes I use standard grading. HOWEVER, I will NEVER use the word "mint" or "near mint" to describe a used LP ... sorry, won't do it. The highest I go is VG+. I use a number after to more represent a combination of how the vinyl looks and how it sounds. 10 is the best. I'll describe what I see in addition. I've found the combination of these two can minimize expectation gaps. But ask questions when in doubt.

CLEANING: Yes. All vinyl is cleaned ... on my own machine I made. Vacuum machine. I wash and rinse with my own formula cleaners -- once with my enzyme cleaner, and rinsed with my own distilled water/alcohol formula. ... this process has worked for me for years.

TESTING: Yes. I've listened to the records I sell. I play on a Lenco L70, via Denon 103 MC cart; tube preamp, a Dynaco ST-70 all tube amp to KLH 17 speakers. An super tubey setup, right!?
SHIPPING: $4.99 for anywhere Media Mail, domestic. Overseas is BY WEIGHT, so check that weight before bidding, you overseas-ers! LPs shipped in a proper box with plastic sleeve, and yes, vinyl shipped outside the sleeve. 
RETURNS: Generally a no go, unless you have a damn compelling reason. But if there's a serious problem, I'm sure we can figure it out with a return. I mean, I am an adult ... allegedly. But I do describe accurately, offer time for questions, and I deal in used records, not new stuff ... yes, it's always kind of a gamble buying via eBay, which is why I try to do my best to make an objective attempt to describe the LP in question. ASK QUESTIONS WHEN IN DOUBT. I promise, we can make this an easy transaction
