Description
This sale is for the Pink Floyd album "Dark Side Of The Moon". The album formed part of my collection in the 1970s, was bought by me, and has only been owned by me. It has never been on loan to anyone else as I did not really trust others to look after my albums as I did, therefore the vinyl is in good condition considering it's age.
I don't like to describe my vinyl albums by use of grading systems or by visual inspection only as I think these methods can sometimes be too varied or convoluted, open to interpretation, and may lead to confusion over the true condition of the album, therefore I prefer to just give my honest opinion of what I have for sale. I always play test my albums from start to finish through good quality headphones, and this is what I base my description on.
Close up images of the album and or sleeves have been provided to compliment my description while also bringing attention to any worn areas of the sleeves etc.
VINYL Side 1 - The label is in good condition, however showing slight damage near to the centre (see photo), and the vinyl itself is in good condition except for some linear and smudge like surface scuffs when viewed against the light, (I think these are caused by the insertion and removal of the LP). There are no jumps or repeating clicks, but there is some occasional slight surface noise that I would describe as being acceptable for a vinyl album of this age. Side 2 - The label and vinyl are in good condition, except for some linear and smudge like surface scuffs when viewed against the light. Again there are no jumps or repeating clicks, and as with side one there is some occasional slight surface noise present on the quieter parts.
SLEEVE The outer sleeve is in good condition for its age, while showing some storage wear to the edges with minimal rubbing and ring wear and it has no split edges.
SHIPPING I WILL ONLY SHIP THIS ALBUM TO MAINLAND UK. I will ship this album, together with the sleeve in a 12" cardboard LP mailer. To further protect the album it will also be inside a new anti static inner sleeve (see footnotes), bubble wrapped and two cardboard stiffeners applied.
Please note, postage cost is based on the actual Royal Mail charge plus £1.50 packaging costs.
PAYMENT I ONLY ACCEPT PAYPAL.
MATRIX NUMBERS PRINTED ON THE DEAD ZONE OF THIS ALBUM ARE AS FOLLOWS:
Side 1 SHVL 804 A-6 Side 2 SHVL 804 B-4
FOOTNOTES HDPE POLYETHYLENE (POLY-LINED ) sleeves have major advantages over paper inner ones as paper can mark the vinyl, also open center holes allow dust to enter.
As for the poly inner itself you need to ensure that its not PVC which is produced with artificial softeners that can leach onto the vinyl. HDPE poly-lined sleeves have no softeners at all and have a melting point of 130c, copes well with high humidity and is stable in most heating conditions.
Thanks for looking and please see my other albums for sale.
