Paganini 6 violin Concertos 5LP box Accardo Dutoit DGG

DGG 2740 121 5 LP box set

Made in Germany

Sound sample auto started, turn up your speakers and have a read and a listen.

Calculated post quoted at 1.5 kg, but it MAY pack finally as 1.25 kg which for overseas buyers may end up between $5aud (ASIA) and $8aud (Europe) cheaper

USA buyers, due to recently enforced air security measures, please note if this is delivered to USA (or Territories) there is now a 9AUD  handling surcharge PLUS the normal post charge (x ray search) so that is why postage to USA destinations is so expensive in the postage Tab!!!!

9 minute 43 seconds Sound sample of first few minutes of both sides record 1 (Concerto No.1) where any scratches or needle drops most likely show up. First part of sample is side A concerto No.1 . After a short break as I flip the disc, side 2 commences at 5 mins 34 secs.

The rest of the LP's seem almost unplayed and should sound no worse than that opening sample section, as there is only a few paper scuffs on the other LP's

My low sample rate DOES NOT give the full effect of the dynamics of these fabulous LP's. 

Other than a few initial pops and tics, quite clean as you can hear.

LP's NM minus  / outer sleeve VG  (yellowing of white box edges, they don't show as yellow in the photograph, but they are ,and a PUNCH HOLE through front and back of box (See photo 3)  Previous owner has also removed the punch hole from the booklet by cutting bottom corner off the booklet, see photo showing punch hole, booklet to immediate right (Photo 3

Track List

Records 1-5 Paganini Violin Concerto's 1-6

Salvatore Accardo Violin, Charles Dutoit Conducting the London Philharmonic Orchestra.

5 LP's CONDITION

Excellent overall, Other than to say I think it looks and sounds GREAT! with only very few paper scuffs only visible in sunlight, and only the very occasional pop or tic, which is spasmodic and non damage related, has its original like new gloss, I doubt this has been played very often at all. FULLY TEST PLAYED before listing on ebay, but only as background to me doing something else, I did not hear anything other than an odd tic or pop as per normal vinyl replay. (NO a $20 start does not get me listening intensely to every second of 5 records, it was all played in the background of my other household chores.

The LP's labels are in excellent unmarked condition, only a few spindle marks.

Records offered as found, not washed but VERY clean.

COVER  VG CONDITION 

downgraded only due to a couple of small corner rubs. the yellowing edges and the PUNCH HOLE (photo 3)

  Trace of bottom edgewear on cover, and some corner rubs  and  No splits or bends.

Original? (NO punch holes...) plastic lined inner sleeves excellent no splits or tears just a few wrinkles

Won't spend too much time (???) waffling  so any specific questions please email me!.

Mailing costs will be significant as complete box and packing will weigh in just under 1.5 Kg but if it comes in under 1.25kg will refund anyn overpayment, my old spring scales indicate it MIGHT be under 1.25 kg , so just in case its invoice is for 1.5 kg

I CAN ONLY INSURE BASED ON THE CUSTOMS DECLARATION STATED VALUE, PLEASE BE AWARE SHOULD YOU BE LIABLE FOR ANY CUSTOMS ON A SECOND HAND LP IN YOUR COUNTRY, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT PAYMENT (UK, Sth Korea and Germany at least probably more, has this problem I believe) 

In other words, buyers asking me to understate the customs declaration on this item need not bid, as I flatly refuse under international law to do so.  (Last Buyer who did that gave neg feedback (it was retracted obviously) as they thought it was my fault they had taxes to pay(?????)

RULES FOR BIDDING

DOES ANYBODY READ THIS?? I THINK NOT BASED ON RECENT BIDDING ACTIVITY ON MY ITEMS!! PLEASE READ...

If you have hidden feedback, or

less than 98% positive, or

less than 50 recent visible positives, (that's NEW EBAY registrations with little activity yet, that have proven your good buying habits)  THEN -

I would appreciate email contact first to establish your credentials.  Credentials mean that I need to know you will be paying with VERIFIED PAYPAL account, and I of course will only be mailing to that verified address. DON'T EXPECT TO GET MY PERMISSION IN THE LAST 2 HOURS OF BIDDING, DO IT BEFOREHAND. (Buyers who have had trouble free transactions with me already qualify of course, regardless of the feedback status)

Winning bids unpaid after 7 days will be reported as non paying bidder and item opened to second chance offer.

HAPPY BIDDING, QUESTIONS WELCOME

This listing in Australian dollars because I don't live in US or UK, and if you don't, WHAT A WASTE OF DOUBLE CONVERSIONS THAT WOULD BE!!! Also as the exchange rate is more like R.S. not U.S against our vibrant economy in sunny Australia

The keen starting price offers a great opportunity to own this great recording at a reasonable starting price.
