I HAVE ACQUIRED A LARGE COLLECTION OF CLASSICAL ALBUMS THAT ARE IN THE MOST INCREDIBLE CONDITION I HAVE EVER COME ACROSS. THE ENTIRE COLLECTION ARE IN MINT / MINT MINUS OR NEAR MINT  CONDITION. NOTHING LOWER THAN THAT. EVERY RECORD HAS BEEN METICULOUSLY CARED FOR AND STORED UPRIGHT AWAY FROM HEAT OR COLD.

THE ORIGINAL OWNER HAS CLEARLY NOT PLAYED MANY OF THESE ALBUMS WHATSOEVER AND THE ONES THAT HAVE BEEN PLAYED HAVE BEEN PLAYED JUST THE ONCE.

THESE VOLUMES THAT I WILL BE OFFERING HAVE SLEEVES IN MOST CASES THAT MATCH THE INCREDIBLE QUALITY OF THE VINYL.

AS I HAVE SO MANY TO LIST, I WILL ONLY BE RECORDING SIDE ONE OF EACH VOLUME, BUT YOU HAVE MY 100% REFUND GUARANTEE IF YOU ARE NOT COMPLETELY SATISFIED WITH YOUR PURCHASE.

THIS MEANS THAT I WILL NOT ONLY REFUND THE COST OF THE PURCHASE , BUT I WILL ALSO REFUND THE COST OF THE RETURN POSTAGE AS WELL. I HOPE THIS PROVES I HAVE THE UTMOST CONFIDENCE IN THE RECORDS THAT I AM OFFERING FOR AUCTION.

IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING THAT CLASSICAL LP'S MORE THAN ANY OTHER TYPE OF MUSIC WILL ENHANCE ANY DEFECT ON THE PLAYING SURFACE DUE TO THE HUGE AMOUNT OF SILENT OR NEAR SILENT PASSAGES, SO PLEASE TAKE A LISTEN TO THE RECORDING BEFORE DECIDING IF YOU WANT TO PLACE A BID. I AM VERY CERTAIN THAT LIKE ME YOU WILL BE AMAZED BY THE INCREDIBLE QUALITY OF THE SOUND

THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE RED LABELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE, THE TYPEFACE IS UNWORN AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. I HAVE USED A MAGNIFYING GLASS AND THERE IS JUST ONE MICROSCOPIC SPIDER LINE AROUND THE SPINDLE HOLE

THE VINYL

THE VINYL HAS RETAINED ITS JUST NEW LOOK AND IS ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS. NOT A MARK ON THE SURFACE WHATSOEVER.  THE VINYL LOOKS AS GOOD AS THE DAY IT CAME OUT OF THE FACTORY. UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION IT ONLY SHOWS A COUPLE OF WISPY HAIRLINES AND ONE LIGHT NON SOUNDING HANDLING LINE ON SIDE ONE

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 WHOLE OF SIDE ONE OF THE ALBUM, AND WHILST THIS IS NOT THE WHOLE ALBUM, I AM SURE THAT IT WILL BE ENOUGH TO HELP THE BUYER DECIDED ON THE QUALITY. I DO THIS BECAUSE I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID. THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS

I PLAY THE LP'S ON AN OPEN DECK SO IT CAN ATTRACT DUST TO THE SURFACE WHILST PLAYING AND MAY CAUSE THE OCCASIONAL LITTLE STATIC NOISE WHICH WHEN PLAYED A SECOND TIME ISN'T THERE

THE FIRST THING TO MENTION IS THAT THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ONE IOTA OF DISTORTION ANYWHERE, AND SECONDLY THE OUTSTANDING LOUD AND POWERFUL STEREO SOUND IS A CRISP AND CLEAR AS A BELL

THERE IS NO BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND CERTAINLY NO CLICKS

NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE WHATSOEVER

I HEARD NO MORE THAN 1-2 TINY DUST POPS THROUGH THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH WHATSOEVER

THERE IS JUST THE OCCASIONAL MINUSCULE BIT OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC.

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS VINYL MINT MINUS  !!! FOR IT'S PLAYTHROUGH

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN THOUGH AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
