Condition

Media: Near Mint (NM or M-) 

Sleeve: Very Good (VG)

Hello and welcome to our record collection sale!

We are a private seller not a shop, happy to deal on a personal level, simply selling on a private collection of around 1500 records to people that will love them. Once they are gone, they are gone!

We will be listing a great many records, 12/7", albums and singles, along with many session tapes over the course of the next few months, as the next project is to move on the music collection. It's just too heavy and bulky to take with us when we downsize!

All records are painstakingly described and listed as per the Goldmine Standard Rating System (details at bottom), along with photographs taken of all serials, identifiable marks and blemishes, with a 40MP camera under direct light. These records will turn up in better condition than the photos look, as they have picked up on everything in the images, so please ask for a link to see them if you need to make sure.

The grading system is great but subjective to the eyes of the Grader, so get to know what I see by looking at listing photos! Thanks.

Please check back regularly or keep in touch with regards to multiple orders and combinations, happy to consolidate postage for you on multiple items.

Thanks for looking, this collection has provided a lifetime of calm and excitement, and we hope they will continue to do so!

Notes

Came with circle silver sticker (black print) stating : "Limited edition coloured vinyl" which is ivory.

Includes 3 posters: Roger and Freddie (with the large hats!) John and Freddie (in action on stage) and Brian and Freddie (early days)

Also has a 12x24cm paper with a colour Queen crest plus information about The Official Queen Worldwide Web, information about the Made In Heaven Poster and release information for Queen - Roadworks by Gerry Stickells. It is backed with mini colour images of the Queen discography and videography up to that point (vhs).

Inner sleeve is printed incorrectly with the Heaven For Everyone lyrics only partially printed and the title not even mentioned.
This was corrected on the 2010 reprint.

Tracks B1 and B4 have been edited for the vinyl release. Track B2 is the single version.

Track B6 features the final "Yeah" which appears as track 12 on the CD version, which carries on into the run-out groove which actually means that if a listener has a record player which does not have an automatic stop activated at this point, it will play indefinitely, consisting only of the few seconds looped over constantly.

The Goldmine Standard for grading the condition of items listed in the Marketplace.

Mint (M)

Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly even still sealed. Should be used sparingly as a grade, if at all.

Near Mint (NM or M-)

A nearly perfect record. A NM- record has more than likely never been played, and the vinyl will play perfectly, with no imperfections during playback. Many dealers won't give a grade higher than this implying (perhaps correctly) that no record is ever truly perfect. The record should show no obvious signs of wear. A 45 RPM or EP sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as any sign of slight handling. An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes, or other noticeable similar defects. The same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, etc.

Very Good Plus (VG+)

Generally worth 50% of the Near Mint value. A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Defects should be more of a cosmetic nature, not affecting the actual playback as a whole. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK". The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. Spindle marks may be present. Picture sleeves and inner sleeves will have some slight wear, slightly turned-up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear, and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation, or cut corner. In general, if not for a couple of minor things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint.

Very Good (VG)

Generally worth 25% of Near Mint value. Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound. Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time. Goldmine price guides with more than one price will list Very Good as the lowest price.

Good (G), Good Plus (G+)

Generally worth 10-15% of the Near Mint value. A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be played through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise, scratches, and visible groove wear. A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear, or other defects will be present. While the record will be playable without skipping, noticeable surface noise and "ticks" will almost certainly accompany the playback.

Poor (P), Fair (F)

Generally worth 0-5% of the Near Mint price. The record is cracked, badly warped, and won't play through without skipping or repeating. The picture sleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and writing. The LP cover barely keeps the LP inside it. Inner sleeves are fully split, crinkled, and written upon.

Generic

Within the context of grading items, the term "generic" refers to a type of sleeve that is not specific to the release. A generic sleeve is either a plain sleeve or a company sleeve with standard company artwork. A sleeve that is graded as "generic" needs no further grading, as a generic sleeve generally adds little value to the item and can be easily replaced.
