Mozart

Don Goivanni

Catalogue Number: SAX 2369/72

Manufactured in the UK

• Highly collectable 4LP box set featuring Eberhard Wachter, Joan Sutherland, Luiga Alva, Gottlob Frich, Elizabeth Schwarzkopf, Giuseppe Taddei, Pierro Cappuccilli and Graziella Sciuttu. The Philharmonia Orchestra & Chorus conducted by Carlo Maria Giulini

The Blue/Silver labels are immaculate showing sign of few plays. No pen marks, stickers or tears etc. The albums are housed in the original lined EMI inners.

The vinyls are in Excellent + condition, no visual imperfections that I can detect. All four vinyls have been pro cleaned on an Okki Nokki machine and sample played on a Project deck. The vinyls lie perfectly flat on the deck and sound superb throughout. I did not detect any clicks, jumps etc - some very light background hiss on very queit moments but still worthy of an Excellent + grading. The libretto booklet is missing from the set, however the one page insert is intact. The box is all intact, no tears, stains etc - just a tiny bit of shelf rub to the base but this is very slight indeed.

Note: This is a very heavy item - postage is high, all items are sent recorded delivery.

• Those Old Records, Lichfield Staffordshire UK

We are a small business founded in 2006 and based in Lichfield Staffordshire. We only sell high quality vinyl and do not trade in inferior cd's. In addition, we organize a number of specialist vinyl record fairs in Lichfield and Burton Upon Trent.  We aim to provide the very best customer service at all times – accurate gradings, strong packaging and all at a keen price. Any queries please mail me at thoseoldrecords@btinternet.com

Record Grading:

All records are graded as per the standards set by Record Collector. Records are examined under a strong halogen light and graded accordingly. In addition, all NON MINT records are played on a LINN Axis turntable with an Akito arm with a Roksan cartridge. I tend not to get carried away with the classification or use words like “impossibly rare” “vault copy” or any other such nonsense.  My reviews are precise and to the point.  It is assumed that you know something of the artist so I rarely provide a description of who they are/were etc. The High Numbers become The Who, `N Betweens become Slade – you will not find a long description on the history in these reviews.

Record Cleaning:

All NON MINT albums are professionally cleaned prior to classification on an Okki Nokki record cleaning machine before dispatch. 

Packaging: (all vinyl 7” + 12”)

Packaging is of the highest quality.  I use professional mailers at all times, each record is supported by 2 cardboard stiffeners. The inner sleeve and record are packed individually in order to reduce wear on the sleeve in transit. The record, inner and cardboard stiffeners are then packed inside a high grade polythene record protector before being sealed in the mailer. The mailer is then supported by tape around the edges in order to minimise risk.

 Postage Costs:

Postage is normally done the next working day after payment. All items are sent "Recorded Delivery". There are no exceptions. Proof of postage is retained with all items.
