Pink Floyd RaRe Gotta Be Crazy NeaR MinT 12 inch LP Vinyl




















Description:


Hello.

 

Pink Floyd

Gotta Be Crazy

THRWM 1818

12 inch Vinyl LP

 

Condition: Near Mint.

 

Issued in extremely limited numbers, I offer you this Near Mint conditioned 12" LP by Pink Floyd called "Gotta Be Crazy" with inner and outer Sleeve.  The catalogue number is THRWM 1818. To clarify, this amazing 12" Vinly, inner and outer sleeve are in Near Mint condition as it has never been played once.

 

Hence, visually, the Vinyl is in great condition, Near Mint on side 1 and side 2. The vinyl retains a fantastic glossy finish with very few (if any) light hairlines. The entire surface on side 1 and 2 is in a beautifully clean and bright condition with no spider trails, no noticable wear and no cracks being present around the centre hole. It is in stunning nearly new condition with no exaggeration of its near mint status. I have not playgraded this one as my Vega is out of the service at the moment.

The outer sleeve also remains near perfect with no tears or excessive creasing and is still bound in it's original shrink.

This would make a fabulous near mint christmas present to any serious collector of this rare Pink Floyd "Gotta Be Crazy" 12"Vinyl.

Please take a look at the picture section as this will hopefully clarify it's authentic condition.

 

I shall dispatch items by registered post following a safe deposit through Paypal and shall be posted with appropriate protection within 3 days of receiving payment. I thank you for looking and wish you luck.


 

As a foreword regarding grading,

I have to admit there's just something unique and special about Vinyl records. I appreciate that the modern download industry facilitates easy access to our most beloved tracks and compact discs are "compact" and slim-lined to minimize storage space. However, what is missing from them forms of media only a record enthusiast will appreciate. If we could possibly disregard the amazing sound reproduction attained only by vinyl records, in terms of value for money, there's just no comparison. If we rationalise it as "what you get for your money", i'll pick records anyday. I don't get any real "consumerable satisfaction" when buying tracks that are then stored in cyber-space and all that you see is a picture of the band pop up. It's a shame what is lost is the atmosphere, originality and imagination of sleeve artwork with the added extras sometimes thrown in, such as limited edition inserts and posters. I believe that a quality vinyl record is it's own form of art, incomparable to that "file" we have downloaded from cyber-space.

Therefore, when buying records I want to obtain a record which I know is what I want, ie condition. In the past, I have had many encounters where I didn't receive what I thought I was bidding on. For example, my experience would suggest that some sellers over grade their stock, whether it be through inexperience or unscrupulous members who believe they can get away with it. When I grade vinyl condition, I emphasize its strong points and weak points in as much detail as possible in addition to a detailed image section to assist in determining its approximate condition. I want you to be informed on what you are bidding on without the presence of over grading / undergrading. I hope my grading system will help with comparing your needs with what is on offer. Thanks and good luck.
