Northern soul-Groovettes-Reness-Think It Over Baby

$

1,975

The Groovettes on the Reness label doing Think It Over Baby/Ain't A Thing You Can Do About It in VG+ condition or EX condition by United Kingdom grading standards. There is some very light staining and ring wear on the label (please see scan). It plays and sounds beautifully. You may not see another one for sale for a long time to come. This northern soul female vocal group single is fast becoming one of the most legendary (and best) records of its kind to emerge from Los Angeles. A previous copy sold for over two thousand dollars on Ebay in the same condition. Manship emailed me a quote of 1500 pounds for a mint copy. This stunning original vinyl copy has WLD-1000 B Re in the trail off groove. I start the bidding reasonably with no reserve to encourage as much bidding as possible. Global express shipping is mandatory for this item to insure tracking and priority delivery. I will split half the cost of global priority shipping ($30) for the benefit of the winning bidder. Insurance is optional to the winner. As always, I fully guarantee customer satisfaction. Thanks for looking.

I use the following grading system by US standards:

M(10) PERFECT! Label, vinyl, sound, all perfect…

M-(9) Maybe a few smudges, some very fine sleeve marks, etc. All glossy vinyl. Label pretty. Sounds great!! (sleeve marks are those tiny scratches with no effect on sound)

Ex+(8) or Vg++(8) A few sleeve marks or a few fine scratches, label still nice. Good gloss. appears-- still sounds great!! UK: EX+

Vg+(7) Probably lots of sleeve marks, OR several fine scratches, OR one or two more serious scratches, OR scuffs. Some gloss. Label is still real nice! Possibly a bit of dirt on it, etc. Overall, a fine copy. No noticeable record noise. UK:EX

Vg(6) It has sleeve marks AND: numerous very fine scratches, or a few more serious scuffs. Still nice looking overall. May be noise in quiet passages, but still sounds good! Still some gloss. Label is beginning to show signs of wear, but not serious. UK: Ex-, Or VG++.

Vg-(5) LOTS of fine scratches and almost no gloss. OR a few serious scratches, OR scuffed. Label is possibly worn. Plays with noise which doesn’t overwhelm the music. Gloss is possible, if the scratches are bad enough.UK: VG+

G+(4) COMPLETELY covered with fine scratches, OR a mix of fine and serious scratches or other defects. Label may be pretty trashed, but is generally readable. Plays with hiss, crackle or distortion, but not awful. UK:VG

G-(3) A filler. LOTS of serious scratches, definitely some audible. Noise is more prominent than the music. Label is BARELY readable. BUT: it plays ok… UK: VG- Between G and F

F(2) Almost unacceptable. Plays through. Label seriously worn. UK: G

P(1) POOR Gots lotsa scratches, scratches, scratches etc. I will NEVER list one like this.
