Pearl Jam NO CODE - FIRST U.S. Vinyl Pressing OPEN/UNPLAYED Copy ! With Set "C" Postcards. I purchased this copy around date of release. The LP has been opened but has NOT been played (except to record the first few seconds of each track for the attached audio sample). 
All of the LP's original contents are included, and the Set "C" Postcards are in Mint condition. The album's inner sleeve is in EX condition, which takes into consideration that there is a 2 inch seam split along the left edge of the inner sleeve (Picture 21). 


COMMENTS: Pictures 4 through 11 show each LP corner, starting from the Front Upper Left and proceeding clockwise (Pictures 4 through 7) and in the same order for the rear (Pictures 8 through 11).
There are small bumps to the front lower right corner (Picture 7), the rear upper right corner (Picture 9), and the rear lower left and lower right corners (Pictures 10 and 11). 
Picture 12 shows the four panels of the inner gatefold cover. 
Pictures 13 and 14 show both sides of the inner sleeve that holds the nine prints. 
Pictures 15 through 18 show the fronts and backs of each of the nine prints. 
Pictures 19 and 20 show the front and back of the LP inner sleeve. Picture 21 shows there is a 2 inch seam split on the left side of the LP inner sleeve. 

About My Used Records - NOT REQUIRED READING, BUT...If you have not purchased an open/used record from me, this section might be worth reading once, as I offer a handful of reasons why I think I offer a superior record-buying experience. Here goes:
1) I'm selling my personal collection. I purchased every item I sell here, and therefore I know where and when I got it, and whether the LP has been played frequently, or not at all, etc. 
2) I take care of my records. Once an LP is open, the record is always stored in a rice-paper (Mobile Fidelity/Quality Pressings-type) or a poly-lined sleeve. For over 20 years I've made a practice of cleaning a record EVERY TIME before I play it. I've owned VPI, Audiodesk, and Degritter cleaners, and for the last several years I use the KLAudio 200T, which is widely considered to be the best cleaner on the market (Acoustic Sounds is said to have their KLAudios running 24 hours a day for their used record business). I also clean my stylus after the end of each LP side. I currently use the DS Audio ST-50 cleaner. Finally, I use high-end cartridges for playback. Owing to these best practices, my LPs do not undergo the kinds of wear you might typically encounter. Generally speaking, if an LP I sell has incidents of surface noise, it's because of the pressing itself. 
By the way, thanks to KLAudio, I am certain that a new LP cleaned on that machine is unquestionably in better condition than a sealed ("mint") LP. Why? Take a look at the next new record you buy. You're likely to see all kinds of dust or other debris, and that doesn't include the microscopic detritus you can't see. A new record is actually upgraded after it's been cleaned by the KLAudio cleaner. All used records I sell here are cleaned before shipment. 
3) Since 1984 or so, my work involved extensive traveling throughout the U.S. My free-time was always devoted to checking out any and all record stores. By the early 2000's, after you add Ebay and other online vendors into the mix, I ended up with a collection of 7,000+ records! (it's down to 5,000+ now). However, there are only so many hours in the day, and the upshot is that many of the "used" records I sell have only been played once or twice, if at all. 

About Me: I'm a long time Ebay buyer and seller intent on selling a significant portion of my LP collection over the next year or two (or three!). I believe in the auction process, so I list my LPs with low opening bids and NO RESERVES. Please have a look at some of the feedback I've gotten over the years; you will be hard-pressed to find a better or more trustworthy source for high value collectibles. The LPs I sell here are routinely listed on other sites at very high asking prices. Here's your chance to get these fantastic rarities in an open auction, reflecting their true market value. I believe this is the most fair process for both buyer and seller -- and it's way more fun!

I look forward to getting rare, out of print records into the hands of music lovers, record collectors and audiophiles (I consider myself all of the above). All LPS stored in a smoke-free, climate controlled environment. 

COMBINED SHIPPING: I am more than happy to combine shipping. Ebay buyers pay the actual postage costs and a single $2 charge for shipping materials. 

PayPal Payments Only. Payment required within 3 days after the end of auction. All records will ship USPS Media Mail.
