THE RECORDS

THE LABELS

THE EIGHT WHITE LABELS ARE IN ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE CONDITION. THERE IS NOT A MARK ON ANY SIDE, AND NO COLOUR LOSS. THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS ALSO PRISTINE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THE SPINDLE HOLES ARE UNWORN. THERE IS JUST ONE   MINUSCULE SPIDER LINE AROUND THE HOLES SHOWING THE LIMITED PLAY THE RECORDS HAVE RECEIVED

THE VINYL

EXAMINING EACH DISC IN TURN THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS IN DAYLIGHT. THEY GLEAM LIKE BRAND NEW VINYLS. EVEN WHEN OFFERED UP TO INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING MORE THAN A FEW WISPY SLEEVE WITHDRAWAL HAIRLINES TO BE SEEN ON ANY OF THEM.

PLAYING THE RECORD

I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.

I HAVE RECORDED JUST THE FIRST ALBUM FROM THIS SET AS I AM CONVINCED THAT BIDDERS WANT TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID, IF THEY HAD THE CHOICE. I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER THIS SERVICE TO MY CUSTOMERS 

THERE IS NOT ONE JOT OF DISTORTION AT ANY POINT, MEANING THAT THE ONE CAREFUL PLAY THIS SET HAS RECEIVED  WAS COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY WEIGHTED AND UNWORN STYLUS

THE LP  PLAYS WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLE WHATSOEVER. NOT ONE SPECK ANYWHERE

NO LOUD CLICKS AT ALL AT ANY POINT DURING THE WHOLE PLAYTHROUGH

THERE ARE TWO LITTLE POPS IN THE LINKING GROOVE TO TRACK 2 AND THREE AND OTHER THAN THAT A LITTLE LIGHT OCCASIONAL STATIC LIKE BACKGROUND HEARD IN SOME OF THE MOSTS SILENT PASSAGES. CERTAINLY NOT UNUSUAL ON SETS LIKE THIS WHERE THE GROOVES ARE SQUASHED TOGETHER TO ALL OW FOR ALL THE TRACKS TO BE PLACED ON THE ALBUM

THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS JUST SUPERB.

I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO GRADE THIS SET NEAR MINT

PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT FOR YOURSELF, DON'T JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT

THE SLEEVE

WELL A BOX, NOT A SLEEVE. HOW HARD IS THIS TO FIND IS COLLECTIBLE CONDITION? NEAR IMPOSSIBLE. FIRSTLY YOU HAVE MOST OF THESE BOXES WITH TORN CORNERS AND SECONDLY THE FRONT SURFACE IS USUALLY VERY BADLY SCRATCHED

THIS BOX IS AS CLOSE TO MINT AS YOU COULD GET I BELIEVE, IT'S CONTENTS ARE 100% MINT

STARTING WITH THE FRONT SURFACE. THIS USUALLY COMES SCRATCHED, GRUBBY, STAINED, HAS STICKER REMOVAL MARKS ON IT, AND GENERALLY LOOKS SHABBY. HERE WE HAVE AN ALMOST PRISTINE EXAMPLE.

THE BLUE SURFACE IS IN SUPREME CONDITION. NOT ONE FINGERMARK, NOT ONE STAIN,JUST SOME VERY VERY LIGHT PRESSURE LINES

ALL FOUR CORNERS ARE ABSOLUTELY PRISTINE,MOST IMPORTANTLY THEY ARE NOT SPLIT. THERE IS NOT ONE SCUFF TO ANY OF THEM THEY ARE ALL SQUARE

THE  TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE ALSO UNMARKED.THE EDGES ARE FINISHED IN A SILVER WITH JUST A LITTLE SCUFF ON THE BOTTOM EDGE NEAR THE RIGHT CORNER

THE LEFT SPINE WITH THE TYPEFACE IS ALL PERFECTLY LEGIBLE, AND EVERY LETTER CLEAR AND SHARP .

THE BASE OF THE BOX IS ALSO IN MINT MINUS CONDITION, AND THIS IS USUALLY SCRATCHED AND RUBBED, BUT NOT ON THIS SET. IT JUST HAS ONE LIGHT CREASE LINE IN THE TOP RIGHT QUADRANT

OPENING THE BOX AND LOOKING INSIDE AT THE PANELS UNDER THE LID, AGAIN THE STORY IS THE SAME. THE FOUR LP'S ARE HOUSED IN MINT CONDITION SLEEVES. NO LINES NEAR ANY OF THE EDGES. NO WEAR TO THE TOP AND BOTTOM EDGE, SHARP SQUARE CORNERS, AND PERFECT SPINES AND OPENING EDGES.

I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS BOX MINT MINUS WITHOUT A SHADOW OF A DOUBT  

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BID IF YOU CHOSE TO GO FOR IT
