Description
Here's one with remarkably clean vinyl, given the not-good state of the cover!
See below for more detail:
VINYL: VG+ (8.0 of 10) OG, MONO, Deep Groove copy, RVG stamp in runout. I gotta say ... it's nice. Plays clean and true. A little light paper scuffing, and maybe a tiny or dull whisp here or there ... but it sounds incredible. I love the Prestige sessions, and it sounds great here.
COVER: G (3.0 of 10) Clearly not good. Bottom left corner chewed (?), cracking on bottom seam, but still holding together fine. Looks like something sticky was on the front and torn off. Solid spine and top seam (outside the corner damage). Back is fairly clean ... so clearly not ideal copy, but the vinyl is there, for sure. _______ 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 AT MM cart; tube preamp, a Dynaco ST-70 all tube amp to KLH 17 speakers. An super tubey setup, right!?
SHIPPING: Free 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 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 try to 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
