Description

UP FOR SALE THIS WEEK IS MY PERSONAL COLLECTION OF ORIGINAL PUNK/GRUNGE/SUBPOP RECORDS! I PURCHASED MOST OF THESE RECORDS BRAND NEW IN THE STORE, AND ALL OF THEM HAVE NEAR MINT, LIKE-NEW DISCS!

*PLEASE CHECK OUT MY OTHER AUCTIONS FOR ORIGINAL, FIRST PRESSING INDIE RECORDS!

**ALL RECORDS WILL BE SHIPPED IN PLASTIC SLEEVES, AND VINYL WILL BE PLACED OUTSIDE THE JACKET TO AVOID DAMAGE. I PACKAGE MY RECORDS IN LARGE CUSTOM BOXES WITH LOTS OF PADDING TO PROTECT THESE TREASURES. SEE GRADING SCALE AND ABOUT ME BELOW**

RECORD DESCRIPTION: NIRVANA AMSTERDAM LOVE BUZZ, GIFFEN RECORDS 079-- BLUE MARBLE VINYL!

MATRIX INFO (hand-written):
a) BBC-666-A-1
b) BBC-666-B-1

ITEM CONDITION: RECORD IS WONDERFUL, LIKE NEW NM/MINT 98 WITH NO MARKS OF ANY KIND VISIBLE WHEN VIEWED DIRECTLY UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT. THE LABELS ARE NEAR MINT 98 WITH 1 VERY LIGHT AND TINY SPINDLE MARK VISIBLE ON SIDE 1, AND NO MARKS AT ALL ON SIDE 2 LABEL. THE JACKET IS EXCELLENT 80 WITH LIGHT CREASES AROUND THE EDGES, AND LIGHT CORNER WEAR.

THIS RECORD WAS PURCHASED FOR ME IN 2005 BY MY BROTHER WHEN HE WAS VACATIONING IN ENGLAND. ACCORDING TO THIS WEBSITE (http://sliver.it/nirvana/test/index.html), AN UNOFFICIAL RELEASE WITH THE SAME SERIES NUMBER (BBC-666) WAS RELEASED AS A BBC TRANSCRIPTION DISC IN 1994, BUT THE WEBSITE MAKES NO MENTION OF THE RELEASE "AMSTERDAM LOVE BUZZ". THIS VERSION IS DATED 1994.

GOOD LUCK AND CHECK OUT MY OTHER COOL PUNK/GRUNGE RECORDS!

GRADING SCALE
ALL RECORDS VISUALLY GRADED UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED. I WILL USE + OR - IF NEEDED FOR BORDERLINE ITEMS

MINT SEALED: SAYS IT ALL! JACKET WILL BE GRADED SEPARATELY TO ACCOUNT FOR ANY FLAWS

NEAR MINT/MINT 95-100: RECORD WILL LOOK BRAND NEW, NO VISIBLE SIGNS OF USE AND ONLY THE LIGHTEST OF SLEEVE MARKS MAY BE NOTICEABLE WHEN VIEWED DIRECTLY UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT. JACKET AND LABELS WILL SHOW LITTLE TO NO SIGNS OF USE OR WEAR OF ANY KIND. ONLY THE NICEST, LIKE-NEW ITEMS WILL GET THIS TOUGH GRADE!

EXCELLENT 80-94: LOOKS GORGEOUS WITH MINOR FLAWS TO KNOCK IT DOWN FROM NEAR MINT. SHOULD STILL LOOK LIKE NEW AT A GLANCE.

VERY GOOD 70-79: RECORD AND/OR JACKET WILL SHOW SIGNS OF USE, BUT NOTHING MAJOR. RECORD WILL SHOW LIGHT MARKS FROM FREQUENT USE, BUT NO DEEP SCRATCHES, NO LOUD REPEATING POPS AND CERTAINLY NO SKIPS OR RETURNS. RING WEAR MAY START TO SHOW ON THE COVER, AND SMALL SEAM SPLITS MAY BE PRESENT, BUT SEAM MUST BE LARGELY INTACT.

GOOD 60-69: RECORD AND JACKET WILL SHOW SIGNIFICANT SIGNS OF USE. STILL A RECORD THAT IS PLAYABLE AND NO SKIPS OR RETURNS.

FAIR 50-59: A WELL LOVED ALBUM THAT WILL PLAY WILL SHOW MUCH USE AND LITTLE CARE. I WILL NEVER LIST A FAIR OR WORSE RECORD UNLESS IT IS INSANELY RARE IN ANY CONDITION!!

POOR 49 AND LOWER: SEAMS TOTALLY SPLIT, TONS OF SURFACE WEAR ON LABELS AND RECORD. AGAIN, ONLY IMPOSSIBLY RARE RECORDS WOULD EVER SHOW UP IN MY EBAY WITH THIS GRADE.

ABOUT ME: I AM AN EXTREMELY PICKY COLLECTOR. ALL RECORDS ARE INSPECTED UNDER A BRIGHT BULB AND I MAKE SURE TO NEVER OVERSTATE THE CONDITION OF MY COLLECTIBLES. MY EQUIPMENT IS A DUAL 606 TURNTABLE AND A SHURE M97XE CARTRIDGE THAT HAS LESS THAN 150 HOURS ON IT. IF YOU ARE EVER UNHAPPY WITH MY GRADING, I WILL GLADLY ACCEPT RETURNS AND REFUND YOUR MONEY!
STAY TUNED FOR MANY MORE RECORDS OF ALL GENRES!!
